INDUSTRIAL APPLICATION
FANS AND BLOWERS
 Glossary: Materials
• Cotton
is a soft staple fibre that grown in a form known as a boll around the seeds of the
cotton plant, a shrub native to tropical and subtropical regions.

• Yarn
is spun thread used for knitting, weaving, or sewing.

• Thread
is a long, thin strand of cotton, nylon, or other fibers used in sewing or weaving.

• Bale
is a bundle of paper, hay, cotton, etc., tightly wrapped and bound with cords or
hoops.
 Glossary: Process
• Blowing
is a process by introducing air current to a fibers or similar material to loosen them.

• Carding
Comb and clean (raw wool, hemp fibers, or similar material) with a sharp-toothed instrument
in order to disentangle the fibers.

• Spinning
The action or process of converting fibers into thread or yarn.

• Roving
is a long and narrow bundle of fiber. Produced during the process of making spun yarn
from wool fleece, raw cotton, or other fibres. Their main use is as fibre prepared for spinning,
but they may also be used for specialised kinds of knitting or other textile arts.

• Winding
The action of winding something or of moving in a twisting or spiral course.
