The history of such devices started in 90s Zellweger Uster launched the first devices
specialized to neps analysing.
Thanks to further development at present
AFIS offers also other modules, from which L
(length) and T (trash) modules are most
widely used.

1.
The fibres are opened and cleaned using specially designed, pinned and perforated cylinders,
which are similar to open end spinning beaters and stationary carding flats.
2.
Airflow into the perforations of the cylinder allows for thorough engagement and efficient
dust and trash removal.
3.
A specimen of fibre is hand teased into a sliver-like strand and is inserted into the feed
assembly.
4.
It passes between a spring-loaded feed roll/feed plate assembly and is engaged by the pinned
and perforated cylinder.
5.
The fibres are combed and carded; dust is released and removed through the perforations in
the cylinder.
6.
Trash is released after the carding action by the "counter flow" separation slot.
7.
Heavy trash particles are separated from fibres and transported out of the system, whereas,
the smaller dust and fibres are returned to the cylinder aerodynamically by the air drawn into
the slot, thus the term "counter flow slot".

Versions 3 and 4 units feed belts and feed rollers are driven
via worm gear with a stepper motor.

Sliver detector:
The sliver detector is located between the feed tray and feed
plate.
Its function is to signal the control system when sliver is being presented to the
individualizer and when sliver is no longer present.
When the trailing end of the sliver passes through the source/detector the beam
is "made" once again.

DATA ANALYSIS:
I) Lengths by number (n):
Fibre length by number is the length of the
individual fibres. This method measures the
length of each fibre and places them into length
categories.
These categories are added together to obtain
the length measurement for short fibre and
average or mean length.

The lint channel contains fibres, short fibres, mechanical neps and seed
coats with fibres attached.
2.
The trash channel contains trash, dust, some fibre fragments and very
large seed coats with little or no attached fibre.
3.
The seed coats, which remain with the fibre during opening are termed
seed coat neps by the AFIS.
4.
These are masses that are most likely to remain with the good fibre
during the textile opening, cleaning, carding, and combing processes.
5.
Large seed coats, termed seed coat fragments, are collected in the
trash port of the AFIS and are more easily removed from the fibre.

The AFIS nep classification module counts and sizes seed coat neps. The classification
module is able to identify the distinct electrical waveforms produced by fibres, fibre
clumps, seed coat neps, etc.
This improved nep module uses a digital signal processor (DSP) to classify all incoming
waveforms and to calculate nep size. Figure illustrates a typical nep waveform and the
values extracted by the standard nep module. Figure illustrates the same signal analyzed
by the DSP system.
The DSP system is capable of recording and analyzing all information contained in the
nep signal, therefore providing better information about the sample characteristics. The
classification software compares each sampled waveform to a standard waveform to
determine which classification it most resembles.
These standard waveforms are based on models of seed coat neps and mechanical neps
travelling through the sensor and are verified on numerous simulations using manually
introduced fibre neps and seed coat neps.

AFIS APPLICATIONS:
(1) Card nep analysis:
fibres.
Due to fibre individualizer provided inside the machine we can analyze neps
i.e. in form of fibre distribution so it will give accurate idea about length.
(5) Trash application::
trash present in material so that we can decide the material is suitable for processing or
not.

Objective of Testing
Reasons for Textile Testing:
Checking the quality and suitability of raw material and selection of material.
Specification testing: Specifications are formed and the materials are tested
to prove whether they fall within the limits allowed in the specification (e.g.
specified by a customer).
