Knitted fabric

Knitting variable:

Yarn count: – Yarn count indicates the fineness of yarn. It varies according to weight with length of the yarn. Yarn twist: – It is the torsion of yarn which helps the fibers to ad hear with each other. Spinning system: – This is the systematic way of giving torsion to the fibers. Yarn ply: – It is the number of ply of the yarn which depends on the required gsm of the fabric. Stitch length: – It is the length of the yarn which forms a single loop in a knitted fabric. If stitch length is increased, fabric gsm is decreased & vise versa.

Yarn tension: – It is the given tension on the yarn during feeding in circular knitting machine. It depends on the required gsm of the fabric. If yarn tension is increased, then stitch length is decreased and fabric gsm is increased. And if yarn tension is decreased, then stitch length is increased and fabric gsm is decreased. Take down tension: – It is the tension created by increasing fabric take up roller speed. Yarn quality: – Fabric quality depends on the yarn quality. As for example, for producing slub single jersey we need slub yarn. Machine gauge: – It the number of needle in one inch area of a cylinder. G.S.M (gm/m2): For knitting it is the main parameter. It is controlled by loop length. If loop length increases GSM will decrease and vice versa. It is measured by GSM cutter & electric balance. It may also be calculated as below.

Single jersey machine Double jersey machine

Wale knitting: –

A method of making fabric by normal knitting means in which the loops are made from each wale thread are formed substantially along the length of the fabric characterized by the fact that each warp thread is fed more of us in the line with the direction in which the fabric is produced.

Coarse knitting:-

A method of making a fabric by normal knitting means in which the loops made by each coarse thread are formed substantially across the width of the fabric, characterized by the fact that each weft thread is fed more of less at right angle to the direction in which the fabric is produced.

Single jersey: –

A fabric in which all the loops of the Wales are intermeshed in one direction is called single jersey. There is only cylinder in single jersey machine.

Double jersey:-

A fabric in which all loops of the alternate Wales are intermeshed in one direction and all the loops of the other Wales knitted at the same course intermeshed in the other direction is called double jersey. Dial and cylinder are used to make this type of fabric.Materials used for knitting process:

Knitting Calculations:

Production calculation:

Production per hour = Here,R.P.M = Machine speed (Revolution per minute)N.F = Number of feederN.N = Number of needleS.L = Stitch lengthM.E = Efficiency of machine

Some conversions:1 cm = 10 mm1 inch = 2.54 cm1 yd = 36 inch1 hank = 840 yd1 kg = 2.2046 lb

Stitch length meter measurement for 28 gauge machine:

Length of 4 yarns ( ) are taken by stitch length meter for 5 revolution. Then stitch length is calculated as bellow:

= = 35.35= = 7.07 × 1000= = 2.67 mm

Measurement with stitch length meterLet,

Finish GSM = 200So, Grey gsm will be = = 153.84Yarn count should be used = = 21.6Stitch length should be maintained = = 2.869 cm

Calculation for total number of needle of a machine = G × D × ?

Here, G = Machine gaugeD = Machine diameter

G.S.M calculation [G.S.M gm/m2]

GSM means grams per square meter. In knitting fabric it is the main parameter. It is controlled by loop length. If loop length increases GSM will decrease and vice versa. It is measured by GSM cutter & electric balance. It may also be calculated as below. GSM = GSM =

Procedure: 1. Industrial Calculation of BKL:

Collect sample (s/j) by G.S.M cutter and weighted from the weighting balance.

e.g.; form balance we get 1.838g grey fabric

so, Gray G,S.M=1.838 =183.8gm/m

Calculate Finish G.S.M as like procedure1 By calculation finish G.S.M =235g/m

2. An industrial calculation about lb/100yd2=13.85[From calculation of 10 reading average]

So, 100 yd -weight=13.85lbSo, 1 yd –weight= So, 1 yd =62.2gm ) =62.2 gm =0.1385

So, G.S.M calculation rule,G.S.M= weight in lb]So, S.D= =.316

CV% %

From finish G.S.M calculating grey GSM, SL, count

Suppose a fabric involve 180 finishes G.S.MSo, gray G.S.M= = So, count= = 24/s

So, S.L = cm=2.9 mm

Calculation of S.L where yarn count = 24

S.L=16.66d =16.66 =16.66 =.308 cm =3.08mm

Calculation if fabric width = no. of needle fabric specification D = machine diameter=( )=( G = machine gauge

Laboratory matching is a color development processes of a given shade of the specified material by formulating a recipe from selected dyes, though the aid of color computer recipe. Combinations using the appropriate dyeing process with available sample dyeing machine until the closed matched are achieved.

Dyeing process:

Fabrics are dyed based of their quality and blending and to the buyers standard sample appearance. The dyeing processes used in BKL are:-

Reactive dyeing:

Cotton part eyeing at temperature range of (60-90) oC in alkali medium (in accordance to existing dyes)

Disperse dyeing:

Polyester part is dyeing in acid medium at 132 oC temperature. There are different processes for blended fabrics such as pc or CVC.

Two bath process:-

This is a process where at first the polyester part is dyed, matched and reduction clearing (if needed) is done, and then proceeds to cotton part dyeing using different bath.

One bath process:-

Putting disperses and reactive dyes together and other chemical in one bath but dyeing the polyester part first proceed with cotton dyeing. In this process selected dyes which are compatible with each other are used. Disperse & Reactive are suitable for the process.

Chemicals & Auxiliaries Used:

Chemicals are main ingredients used with dyes and auxiliaries means the aids or helper to get better results like levelness, absorption, crease free and other quality parameters, but water is the important ingredient need in all dyeing.

Dyestuff strength test:

This test result is identified by comparing the visual appearances of two dyed samples are dyed with different dyestuffs at same condition. For this test two different fabric samples are taken from same fabric which is ready for dye. Then two samples are dyed with different dyestuffs which to be tested with same auxiliaries and chemicals at same time, temperature and other conditions. After dyeing and drying both sample are compared with each other visually. According to their depth of shade and appearance decision is taken which dyestuff is more economic.

Salt test:Equipments used1. Distilled water (as required)2. Salt 500 gm3. Pot4. Stirrer5. Filter paper6. Electronic balance7. DryerProcedure:

First 500 gm salt is taken in a pot. Then it is fully melted in required amount of distilled water with a stirrer. Then filter paper is weighted and the weight is recorded. Then the salt solution is filtered by the filter paper. All the dust particles are gathered at the surface of the filter paper. Then the dust containing paper is dried. After drying weight of the dust containing filter paper is measured with the electronic balance. Then the weight of the dust is calculated subtracting the previous measured filter paper value from the present value. Then percentage of dust is calculated in the salt.

Singeing: It is the process of burning of the fabric hairs projection through the fabric surface.

Mercerization: Mercerization is a process of treatment of cellulosic textile yarn or fabric form with a concentrated solution of caustic alkali whereby the fibers swollen, the strength lusture and dye affinity of the materials increased, and their handle is modified.

Scouring: Boiling off process with detergent & alkali (Soda ash/Caustic soda). Greige fabrics contain fats, waxes& other impurities .the absorbency of the fabrics adversely effected due to the presence of these impurities. This leads to improper dyeing, printing & finishing in subsequent process.

Bleaching: Bleaching is a process for removing natural nitrogenous coloring matters e.g. dirt, dust, husk, broken seeds, protein, leaf etc from the fabric & make it white by oxidizing or chemical treatment.

Objects of scouring & Bleaching:

1 To remove fats, wax, impurities from the fabrics.2 To increase absorbency of fabric3 To remove natural coloring materials, dirt, dust, broken seed by oxidizing of chemical treatment4 To obtain pure & permanent color.5 To whiten the fabric.6 It changes the textile materials which are hydrophobic in nature. 7 It helps to produce an even shade during dyeing operation. 8 To impart the wet ability of the fabric this is necessary for further treatment and domestic uses.

Materials & chemicals used for scouring & bleaching:

Steam: To heat up the water.Compressed air: To operate the machine.Caustic soda: For controlling PH of the dye bath.Hydrogen peroxide: To bleach the fabric.Stabilizer: It is buffer solution and maintains PH at a stable point.Wetting agent: To wet the fabric for even dye application.Detergent: To wash the fabric.Sequestering agent: To remove the hardness of water.Acid: To maintain PH.Anti-creasing agent: For reducing crease mark at the fabric during washing, dyeing and other processes.

Enzyme wash: It is the process of washing fabric with enzymes to remove hairiness of the fabric.

Demineralization of water: Beximco use underground water for all wet processing activities. This water contains different types of minerals.Total dissolved solid (TDS)| Arsenic (As) Cadmium (Cd) Lead (Pb) Chloride (Cl) Nitrate (NO3) Nitric (NO2) Cyanide (Cn) Fe II

Among these only Iron is removed by sand bath filtering process in water treatment plant. Other material remains at sustainable limit.
