Abstract
The Blow room plays an important role in the opening, cleaning, homogeneous mixing and blending, optimum process parameters are required to minimize/control the fiber rupture and lower the neps generation. Material transportation to chute for sub sequent process is also carried out while blow room is in action.The main object of this study is to achieve better sliver and yarn quality by implementing different settings at different machines. The blow room contributes only about 5 to 10% to production costs in the ring spinning mill. Cotton cleaning is an important spinning preparation process, and the degree of cleaning is therefore an interesting characteristic for the machine employed in this field. On the basis of the authors' research, they state that the determination of the clean ability based on the measures of trash by means of the device of control “Uster" permits to predict the future behavior of cotton in cleaning and gives a preview on the cleaning efficiency of cleaner and even a cleaning line. This means that it is possible to test cotton fibers at all stages of the cleaning process. The clean ability of cotton is clearly influenced by several fiber properties. We can notice that the clean ability strongly depends on the seed coat fragments and the micronaire value but does not depend on the trash content. So the determination of C allows to compare the effect of cleaning lines on the decrease and the fragmentation of trash and to evaluate the cleaning efficiency.
