6. Different Spinning Techniques
Here are various spinning techniques –
Ring and traveller spinning
Open end spinning
Self-twist spinning
Twist-less spinning
Core spinning
7. Different Spinning Techniques
This is a system for yarn formation involving either continuous
felting or the permanent or temporary adhesive bonding of fibers
together to form a continuous length.
TWISTLESS SPINNING TECHNIQUES
8. TWISTLESS SPINNING TECHNIQUES
In twistless systems liquid or powdered polymer adhesives are
applied to sliver
The adhesive activated by heating or steam to cause the
individual fibers to adhere to one another
In some systems, after textile substrate formation from the
twistless yarns the adhesive is removed to improve the aesthetics
of the resulting textile
Adhesives used include polyvinyl acetate, polyvinyl alcohol. and
starch
CHARACTERISTICS
10. TWISTLESS SPINNING TECHNIQUES
During spinning (figure) the prepared sliver is first
wetted out by passing it through a water bath after
which it is drafted using a conventional high draft
three roller system.
A false twister immediately after the front roller keeps the fibres
together as they pass through the drying unit, after which the yarn
is packaged.
MACHINERY USED AND ARRANGEMENTS
11. TWISTLESS SPINNING TECHNIQUES
The product speciality of this technique is that finer yarns can be
spun from coarser fibres, as coarser fibres are generally less
expensive.
In this process, cotton and pure synthetic fibres can be processed,
and so can blends.
The range of fibre linear density lies between 1.4 and 6 dtex, with
staple lengths in the range 30-80 mm
PRODUCT SPECIALITY
12. TWISTLESS SPINNING TECHNIQUES
The yam is not round but flat and therefore gives an end product
with high covering power
The yam is stiff with low elongation
The evenness corresponds to that of ring-spun yam
The wet-ability of twist-less yarn fabrics are comparatively high
than normal fabrics
The twist-less yarn is very bulky than a normal twisted yarn

14. OPEN END SPINNING
Definition:
Open-end spinning or break spinning is a process in which fibrous material is highly
drafted, ideally to the individual fiber state, creating a break in the continuum of the
fiber mass. The individual fibers are subsequently collected onto the open end of a
yarn that is rotated to twist the fibers into the yarn structure to form a continuous yarn
length. The length of yarn spun is then wound to form a package. Thus, the twisting
action occurs simultaneously but separately from winding.
Techniques :
A number of spinning techniques exploit the OE method,18but only two have achieved
commercial success: rotor spinning and friction spinning. Of the two, rotor spinning is
the more widely used commercially, because a wider range of yarn counts can be spun
with suitable yarn properties
Twist :

22. Ring Spinning TECHNIQUES
Definition:
A process of spinning in which the yarn is twisted while passing
through a small metal device traveling rapidly around a ring in the
operation of winding the into bobbin.
History of Ring spinning Machine :
The ring spinning machine was first invented in 1828 by the
American Thorp. In 1830, another American scientist, Jenk,
contributed the traveler rotating on the ring. There have been many
development has done in ring spinning machine for the last years
but the basic concept remained unchanged.
24. Ring Spinning TECHNIQUES
Various components of Ring Frame
• Thread guide:
It is a yarn guide made by bending a wire named snail wire.
Functions:
Its main function is to guide the yarn thus maintain the security
of the yarn.
• It prevents yarn collision with adjacent yarns.
• It surface should be smooth to prevent rubbing of yarn. Rubbing
creates yarn hairiness.
Spindle:
The spindle is the main part of a ring frame which helps in
twisting, winding .
25. Ring Spinning TECHNIQUES
Functions of spindle:
Twisting and winding is performed by spindle.
It holds the bobbin.
The capacity of ring frame is mainly determine by the number of
spindle
Ring:
The ring are made of low carbon steel i.e. soft steel or ceramic.
Function:
There are some important functions of ring. These are given below:-
Ring guides the circular run of the traveler.
It also helps in twisting by means of running of the traveler.
It also acts as a track of traveler.
26. Ring Spinning TECHNIQUES
Classification of ring:
A) According to origin or element:- i. Metallic ring, ii. Ceramic ring
B) According to number of flange:- i. Single flange ring, ii. Double flange ring
Flange:
The path of traveler on the ring is called flange. It may be single or double
Traveler:
Traveler is the most tinny and simple mechanical element in ring frame which
carries the most important function like simultaneous twisting, winding,
thread guide etc.
Function of traveller:
Traveler does some important in ring frame. These are mentioned below:-
Twisting on the drafted strand of fibre.
Winding of the yarn on the bobbin.
27. Ring Spinning TECHNIQUES
• Maintain winding tension of the yarn by the frictional resistance
between the ring and the traveler. It acts as a guide for yarn on
the way to be wound on the bobbin.
• Types of traveller:
Travelers can be classified into following two ways:-
A) According to shape:-
C – traveller Elliptical traveller
• B) According to the X-section of wire:
Round traveller Flat traveller Semi-circular traveller
28. Ring Spinning TECHNIQUES
• Apron:
Rubber Apron is made of synthetic rubber material, with excellent wear-resistance/oil-
resistance/ageing-resistance and smooth surface. In addition, it is of good stability,
flexibility & wide application. It is used in drafting system of ring frame and some other
modern drafting system in spinning machine. It contains cradle for guiding its direction
of length
• Rubber cot:
It is one type of synthetic rubber material which is used in top rollers of ring frame
drafting system. The rubber cots also used on drawing frames, combing machines &
spinning frames. Its hardness can be varied. The hardness of rubber cots is expressed
by degree. Generally harder cots are used in the back rollers and softer rollers are used
in front rollers.

Advantage of Ring Spinning System:
Any type of material (fibre) can be spun
• Wide range of count can be processed
• It delivers a yarn with optimum characteristics.
• Idealized twisting system
• It is uncomplicated and easy to operate
• Higher yarn strength can be achieved
Disadvantages of Ring Spinning System:
Low production
• Machine generates more heat
Limitations:
In ring spinning machine twisting and winding are done
simultaneously. That’s why the power consumption is higher.
31. Self-twist spinning TECHNIQUES
Self-twist spinning is the process that involves inserting
alternating S and Z twist in the fibre strands that come from
the drafting system. This is done by passing the slivers
between the draft rollers which rotate along the axes as they
rotate to deliver the threads.
The self-twist spinning method provides a concept whereby
two strands can be twisted and plied in a single-stage
process to give a torque-balanced two-fold yarn suitable for
knitting. The method is based on the false-twist principle.
32. Self-twist spinning TECHNIQUES
o A pairs of roving are fed onto the drafting rollers in such a way that
the last set reciprocates axially.
o The roving slivers are drawn out on succession of these drafting
rollers. The action of the drafting rollers causes a rolling action of
the strands as they emerge.
o The side ways movement of the roller causes the stands to wrap
around each other.
o After the rollers complete their side ways motion in one direction,
the movement is then shifted in the opposite direction.
o The resultant yarn therefore has alternating sections of right and left
hand twist.
Machinery used :
33. Self-twist spinning TECHNIQUES
o The machine itself is a small high productive unit. lt has four
spinning heads and a delivery Speed of 220 m/min. Although
some Versions were developed to run at higher Speeds
o The machine is simple to operate and maintain. A 2 kW motor is
required to drive the machine (including compressed air).
o The machine can be installed and will be running in about 8
hours.
Machinery used :
34. Self-twist spinning TECHNIQUES
o Often two yarns are twisted together, termed doubling or
plying, in order to improve yarn properties, in particular
yarn evenness, or to overcome downstream processing
difficulties, for example in weaving worsted fabric where
the warp yarns are not sized and therefore a low yarn
hairiness and high abrasion resistance are important.
Because of the cost issue of an additional processing
stage (i.e. doubling) various techniques have been
developed which simulate a two-fold yarn using the ring
spinning method.
35. Self-twist spinning TECHNIQUES
Each of the yarn strand contains twist.
Twist in a self-twist yarn is described in turns per l/2 cycle, that is the
number of turns in each section of S and Z twist.
The twist level will also increase as the yarn becomes finer.
Originally Self-Twist yarns were used in the weavrng trade and were
subjected to a further twisting Operation after the self twist machine.
When used in knitting applications the unidirectional twist in these
yarns prevented them from producing satisfactory fabrics or garments.
property of products
36. Self-twist spinning TECHNIQUES
The key to the System is that, before the false twist
escape, the two sfrands are brought together to lie
parallel. When the false twist escapes, the rotation of
the two yarn,s Causes them to wrap around each
other, preventing the false twist from dissipating and
so forming a balanced two-fold structure of
alternating S and Z two-fold twist.
