The effect of sizing recipe on production and quality of fabric
(UMT.Lahore, 2008) Sohaib Hassan Khalid
Sizing is the process in which different adhesives are applied on the yarn sheet to increase its strength and decrease hairiness. Air Jet looms are very fast fabric manufacturing machines, have ability to produce good quality fabric. Today most of the weaving industries have installed Air Jet looms and in future these will be the most preferable machines for fabric manufacturing. Air Jet looms due to high speed, demands proper sized yarn with sufficient strength to give high production efficiency as compared to slow fabric manufacturing looms. So, to fulfill this requirement of fast fabric manufacturing we did work on the sizing recipes of different qualities in different units and collected the data for analysis of their size recipes. We searched the results for optimum sizing recipes for different fabric qualities on Air Jet looms. We made comparisons between different properties of yarn and observe the recipe changing effect on production and quality of fabric in general. These provided us actual behaviors of size recipes on quality of fabric and remain helpful for our goal. We checked the effect of sizing recipes on the fabric quality and behavior of sizing on loom efficiency. We test the sizing objective parameters and their effect in the fabric manufacturing. All the efforts were to check the recipe effects on the fabric quality and production.
