DEFINITION DECORATIVE TEXTILE

Textile arts are those arts and crafts that use plant, animal or synthetic fibers to construct practical or decorative objects. Concepts The word textile is from Latin texere which means "to weave", "to braid" or "to construct". The simplest textile art is felting, in which animal fibers are matted together using heat and moisture. Most textile arts begin with twisting or spinning and playing fibers to make yarn The yarn is then knotted, looped, braided, or woven to make flexible fabric or cloth, and cloth can be used to make clothing and soft furnishings. All of these items felt, yarn, fabric, and finished objects are collectively referred to as textiles.

YARN
Yarn comes in Small cones.

WINDING
From the small cones yarn wind on big cones.

WARPING
According to fabric length cones is fitted in cones stand.
Cones also called :Creels Creels Capacity :- 640 Divided in Two parts in one part :- 320 creels.

CREELS STAND

Yarn comes on warping drum from cones.

Then yarn comes on warping beam from warping drum and now a warping beam is ready.

JACQUARD LOOM
WEFT YARN

The weft yarn comes from cones and pass by a needle. Then warping beam is set on Jacquard loom.

SPECIFICATIONS

DESIGNS OF DOBBY

GREY FOLDING
After the weaving fabric comes in grey folding in this process we check the fabric faults Some Defects :Knotting Oil Staining Slub Double Pick Short Pick Loose Pick

FABRIC PROCESSING
TYPES OF PRE TREATMENT :

SINGEING DESIZING SCOURING MERCERISATION

SINGEING MACHINE : To reduce the projective fiber on the fabric mostly it is applied on cotton fabrics. Speed : 80-150 m/min. DESIZING MACHINE : To reduce desizing material on the fabric. Temp. : 900 Chemical : EL-40

SCOURING : Scouring is a chemical washing process carried out on cotton fabric to remove natural wax and non-fibrous impurities (e.g. the remains of seed fragments) from the fibres and any added soiling or dirt. MERCERISATION : To increase dye pick up, lusture strength and absorbency of fabric. Temp. : 450-500 Speed : 18 m/min

DYEING
JIGGER DYEING MACHINE A dyeing machine in which cotton fabric in open width is transferred repeatedly from one roller to another and passes each time through a dye bath of relatively small volume. Temp. : 450

JET DYEING MACHINE A high-temperature piece-dyeing machine that circulates the dye liquor through a Venturi jet, thus imparting a driving force to move the fabric. The fabric, in rope form, is sewn together to form a loop.

FINISHING
