What are the textile equipment for yarn, fabric and clothing?

There are many types of textile testing instruments, which are used in the textile industry in different ways and processes. Here are some test instruments used in the testing process of yarn and fabric/clothing. Yarn Tester: Crimping Tester: Pressure is an important property that determines the carding behavior, drafting and failure rate in the yarn. Crimping frequency, amplitude stability, crimping, crimping elongation, and decrimping point are all important crimping properties that determine. The crimp tester is used to determine the potential expansion of the yarn. Use: The crimp tester can be used for polyamide and polyester textured yarns. The frequency and amplitude of the crimping can be determined by the magnified image of the projected fiber on the screen. The instrument of the crimp stiffness meter is based on the characteristics of the test method. ? The tester can be used for polyamide and polyester textured yarns. An instrument mounted on a sturdy metal base. Small and light. ? Heat crimp shrinkage measurement of heating device. How does the curl tester work? The principle of this test is as follows: the load is equivalent to 0.09 g/end of yarn suspended in water. A fixed time load is further fixed after the reduction of the yarn length is reduced to 0.0018 g/count. The reduction in the length of the crimped elastic yarn expressed as a percentage of the original length of the yarn. The commonly used test methods are as follows: 1. Put the yarn into the test kit of the bolt test kit on the bottom plate of the yarn guide Hank machine under the equipment. 2. The threaded yarn gate is adjusted by the tensioner and tension to pull the yarn through the gate; it can be observed that the crimp is gradually eliminated. 3. The inner side of the winch at the front end of the clamping yarn. The choice of wind-hank and multi-strand, 0.09g/support, 0.0018g/support load can be provided by setting the connection weight to apply to each yarn. (The most common load and yarn number are the second manual. Listed in the given table) Clamp the outside of the final chain winch. 4. Add the appropriate light chain extending through the fork fork at the lower end of the Hank winder arm. Add appropriate weights to the lower hooks that are light in weight. 5.5. Remove the Hank and the lifting weight to unscrew the Hank rod from the winder arm. 6. The Hank bar supported by the additional card is immersed in the water. The Hank is sandwiched between the two supporting cylinders of the RIM in the graduated cylinder. 7. Start stop table. 8. Put Hank in the first 2 minutes and measure Hank's length as 10.9. The soaking time of 2 minutes is used to increase the mesh removal weight and release the weight from the S-shaped hook. 10. After 2 minutes the measurement length is LS Hank. Crimping u003d 10-Ls/L0 x 100 Yarn appearance coil: Yarn appearance plate winding machine is used to compare the photos of violation standards for visual inspection of unevenness along the length of the yarn. The established yarns are evaluated for different thicknesses; the spacing between the packages is appropriately selected to clearly give a pattern recognition. Yarn appearance board elevator is used to inspect the appearance of the board in parallel and equidistant packaging lines. Features of yarn appearance board machine: Manual operation. ·Check the uniformity and appearance of the yarn. In order to accurately assess the level of imperfections, an accurate assessment of the photographic comparison standard is carried out. ?Used for yarn winding on the visual inspection blackboard and grading yarn according to the American ASTM standard. Wide range of rectangular and wedge-shaped board options. How does the yarn appearance coil work? Packing board:-The number of yarns to be tested must be determined. The proper spacing of the yarn packages on the board must be found from the table. ? The parallel/cone plate must be fixed on the stub. The spacing of the yarns on the cardboard must be checked by making a small sample package. The moving block must be improved. It was taken to the right and released. The thread guide fixed on this block must be aligned with the point of the winding. To ensure this, a red mark is present on the guide road. ? The bobbin containing the yarn to be tested must be placed on the holder. The yarn must pass through the tensioning device and the eye on the front bracket and moving block. The tension on the yarn must be adjusted to allow it to move freely on the rotating plate. Wrap the yarn on the board until it forms a sufficiently wide band. Cut the yarn and remove the plate from the device. Evaluation: By comparing the main photos of the same pitch, the uniformity level of the yarn is evaluated. The standard has 4 main photos: One, B, C, and a space in each. ? Compare the appearance standards of the sample with different ASTM cotton yarns. The level assigned to it is equal to or better than, but not equal to the next higher level. Fabric inspection equipment: GSM cutter: GSM cutter is used to accurately determine GSM (grams per square meter) of any type of fabric. This knife is a round knife GSM fabric sample for uniform round fabric cutting. The specimen cutter with the help of the GSM fabric is an area of u200bu200b100 square centimeters. The instrument is equipped with a set of four replaceable blades and normal cutting pads. GSM tool accessories: 1.gsm pad 2. Features of GSM scale to GSM knife: Reliable, fast, and easy to use. ? The cutting area is 100 square centimeters. ? The cutting depth is 5mm. It is the special surface of the contact surface to prevent the specimen from sliding.

At a time when technology is essential for textile testing equipment, ensuring that it works in a symbiotic way with your human employees is key.
