INTRODUCTION
By means of practical knowledge its not possible to apply the theoretical knowledge
in thepractical field. For any technical education, practical experience is almost
equal importance in association with the theoretical knowledge.
The industrial attachment is the process, which builds understanding skills and
attitude of the performer, which improves his knowledge in boosting productivity
and services. University education provide us vast theoretical knowledge as well as
more practical attachment, in despite of all these industrial attachment helps us to
be familiar with technical support of modern machinery, skillness about various
processing stages.
It is also provide us sufficient practical knowledge about production management,
work study, efficiency, industrial management, purchasing, utility and maintenance
of machinery and their operation techniques etc.
Textile education cannot be completed without industrial training. Because this
industrial training minimizes the gap between theoretical and practical knowledge
and make us accustomed to industrial environment. We got an opportunity to
complete our industrial training at BISWAS SYNTHETIC LTD. It has well planned &
equipped fabric dyeing-finishing and printing unit in addition to facilitate knitting
and knitwear manufacturing.

Knitting:
Knitting is the method of creating fabric by transforming continuous strands of yarn into a series
of interlocking loops, each raw of such loops hanging from the one immediately preceding it.
The fundamental structure unit of a knitted fabric is the loop. Any circular knitted fabric is
composed of row after row of intermeshed loops. Different types of fabric are made of different
method of intermeshing the loop. The gross dimension of knitted fabric is simply a relation of
average shape and size of individual loop. There are several key variables in the production
which affect the average shape and size of the loop. After knitting the grease fabric is dyed to
required shade and finished to required weight and width.
Classification of knitting:
Warp knitting:
A method of making a fabric by normal knitting means is which the loop made from each
warp thread is formed substantially along the length of the fabric. Characterized by the fact that
each warp thread is feed more or less in the line with the direction in which the fabric is
produced.
Weft knitting:
A method of making a fabric by normal knitting means is which the loop made from each
weft thread formed substantially along the length of the fabric. Characterized by the fact that
each warp thread is feed more or less in the line with the direction in which the fabric is
produced.

16. 16
Single jersey:
A fabric in which all the loops of the Wales are intermeshed in one direction is called
single jersey. Only cylinder is used to make single jersey fabric.
Double jersey:
A fabric in which all the loops of the alternate wales/wales are intermeshed in one direction and
all the loops of the other wales knitted t the same course are intermeshed in the other direction is
called the double jersey. Dial and cylinder are used to make this type of fabric.
Primary knitting elements:
Needle:
The needles are the most important stitch forming elements. They are displaced vertically up and
down and are mounted into the tricks or cuts of the knitting cylinder.
There are three types of needles namely:
1) Latch Needle.
2) Spring bearded Needle and
3) Compound Needle.
The main function of needle is loop formation.
Cams:
Cam is the second primary knitting element. The cams are the mechanical device which convert
the rotary machine drive into a suitable reciprocating action for the needles or other elements
came are carefully profiled to produce precisely time movement and dwell periods.
Types of knit cam:
1.Knit cam
2.Tuck cam
3.Miss cam
17. 17
Sinker:
Sinker is a thin metal plate with action at right angles to and fro between adjoining needles.
Functions of Sinker:
1) Loop formation: The main objects of a sinker are to assist the needles in loop formation by
sinking or knitting the newly laid yarns into a loop.
2) Holding down: It also holds down the loops at a lower level of the needles stems and
prevents the old loops from being lifted as the needles raise to clear them for their hooks.
3) Knocking over: The function is knocking over at which the needle passes through the old
loop by drawing a new loop.

Pitch
Loops : It is a basic unit consisting of a loop of yarn meshed at its base with
previously Basic unit .
Stitch : The smallest dimensionally stable unit of all knitted fabrics is the stitch . It
consists of a yarn loop which is held together by being intermeshed with another stitch or
other loops
Stitch length:Stitch length is a length of yarn which includes the needle loop & half the sinker
loop on either side of it. Generally the larger the stitch length, the more extensible & lighter the
fabric & the poorer the cover, opacity & bursting strength.

Relationship between knitting parameter:
1. Stitch length increase with decrease of GSM.
2. If stitch length increase then fabric width increase and Wales per inch
Decrease.
3. If machine gauge increase then fabric width decrease.
4. If yarn count increase (courser) then fabric width increase.
5. If shrinkage increases then fabric width decrease but GSM and Wales
Per inch increase.
6. For finer gauge, finer count yarn should use
7. Grey GSM should be less than finish GSM
Yarn Twist and Yarn Count:
The amount of twist is an important factor in finished consumers’ goods. It determines the
appearance as well as the durability
and serviceability of a fabric. Fine yarns require more twist than coarse yarns. If the yarn twist
increase, the yarn strength increase up to certain level after that yarn strength decrease.
The twist factor for combed cotton yarns for knitted fabrics should not exceed 3.7, whereas in
case of carded yams, a twist factor up to 3.9 is tolerated of yarns for knitted fabrics .
In case of knitting yams a part of the yarn strength has to be sacrificed for a better and softer
handle
Yarns with low twist are used for knitted fabrics, yarns with high twist are used for crepe yarns
Yarnswith average twist are used for regular woven fabrics.
25. 25
Effect of stitch length on color depth:
If the depth of color of the fabric is high loop length should be higher because in case of fabric
with higher loop length is less compact. In dark shade dye take up% is high so GSM is adjusted
then. Similarly in case of light shade loop length should be relatively smaller

Quality Control
Quality assurance system of knitting division:
The quality assurance department is assigned to maintain consistently uniform quality of the
material in process and various stages of its manufacturing. After collecting fabric rolls from
different machines, these fabrics need to inspect thoroughly by the quality inspectors to assure
required quality before dying. Quality assurance of knitted grey fabric is described here.
Quality control
On-lineOff-line
Quality control equipment:
Following equipment are used to ensure proper quality of the produced fabric
Yarn tension meter
Stitch length meter
Magnifying glass
GSM cutter etc
On- line:
1. Grey GSM of the fabric
2. Grey inspection
3. Stitch length
4. In coming good quality check
Off- line:
1. Check diameter, GSM, unevenness, dead fiber, hairiness, thick and thin place, and
contamination
2. Shrinkage %
3. Spirality
Body inspection:
All rolls are kept in front of the inspection m/c time to time and are inspected over the inspection
m/c visually in a pre-set speed against light. For any major or minor faults like thick-thin, barre
effect, fall out, contamination, fly, holes, oil lines, needle line, slubsetc are recorded in inspection
report to classify the fabric based on the four point system.
30. 30
Collar & cuff inspection:
Collar& cuff are inspected visually under the light box, any major or minor fault in collar/cuff
like having wrong ply, hole, needle line, slubs, wrong design, first round problem etc properly
counted and recorded.
Quality Control Standard Value:
Fabric inspected by 4-point system.
Shortly describe about 4-point system.
This is the universal system for the inspection of grey and finished fabric. In this system, we
count penalty point for different kind of defect as well as according to the defect size. Different
types of defect may come from yarn fault, manufacturing fault, transportation fault.
Parameter of penalty point:
Hole-H
Rus Stain-RS
Oil Stain-OS
Missing Yarn-MY

Batch section
Batching:
Primarily batching is done by batching section which is supervised by dyeing manager. The main
function of batching section is to prepare the batch for dyeing according to machine capacity,
order and emergency. This section receive the grey fabric from knitting section and make batch
according to order for particular shade. Then this batch delivers to dyeing section for dyeing.
Function or purpose of Batch section:
To receive the grey fabric roll form knitting or other source.
Turn the gray fabric if require.
Prepare the batch for dyeing according to the following criteria:
Order sheet (Received from buyer)
Dyeing shade ( light or dark, color or white)
Machine capacity.
Type of fabric ( 100% Cotton, CVC, Stripe fabric)
Emergency order.

Dyeing Lab
In every dye house, a laboratory equipped with machines & equipment is essential. It assists in
production prediction, minimization of time consumption and wastage reduction. It is also
producing the product of desired quality.
Prior to the bulk production, laboratory plays a vital role in shade matching & detecting the
characteristics of the dyes and chemicals to be used in the large scale of production.
In Biswas Synthetic Ltd. dyeing Lab is divided into two section.
Chemical Lab
Quality Lab
Quality Lab:
Quality lab performs all testing on finished fabric.
Chemical lab:
Chemical lab performs all shade matching and other chemical tests for Bulk dyeing Production.
Lab dip:
Lab dip is a process by which buyers supplied swatch is matched with the varying dyes
percentage in the laboratory with The help of “DATA COLOR” or see the previous matching
sample or give the recipe by the practical experience, Lab dip plays an important role in shade
matching & and detaching the characteristics of the dyes and chemicals are to be used in the
large scale of production so this is an important task before bulk production.

Dyeing:
Dyeing is the process of imparting colors to a textile material through a dye (color). Dyes are
obtained from flowers, nuts, berries and other forms of vegetables and plants as well as from
animal and mineral sources. These are known as natural dyes. The other classes of dyes are
known as synthetic dyes. These are based on a particular type of chemical composition. Some of
these dyes are- Acid (Anionic) dyes, Basic (Cationic) dyes, Neutral dyes, sulfur dyes, vat dyes,
reactive dyes, pigment dyes etc.
Pretreatment:
The term “pretreatment” covers all operations of preparing textile material for subsequent dyeing
and finishing processes.
Objective:
The preparation of goods for dyeing and printing is a far important process than the production
of white goods. Textile material to be dyed or printed must have the following properties:
To increase the uniform absorbency all over the goods as much as possible.
To remove all types of impurities as much as possible with minimum damage to fibres
To make fibres fit for dyeing.
Fit for dyeing is a concept that explain a material which is completely ready for dyeing both
externally & internally & conforms several requirements. Like-
Required uniform absorbency
Required Ph level.
Required H2O2 level
Required bi-carbonate level
Minimum damage of fibre structure.
Degree of whiteness:
In the past, it was customary to regard the degree of whiteness as the most reliable criterion for
judging the quality of the pretreatment. But now there are other factors governing the results
obtained in subsequent operations. Today, therefore, the object of pretreatment is not a full
bleach, but only a partial bleach as necessary to ensure good purity and brilliance of shade in
subsequent dyeing or printing.
Hydrophilic properties:
High and uniform absorptive of the goods is essential. It is the hydrophilic properties that govern
the evenness of uptake of the dyes and chemicals, particularly in cases where these are applied
continuously
44. 44
Scouring:
The main purpose of scouring textile material is to remove natural as well as added impurities of
essentially hydrophobic character as completely as possible and leave the material in a highly
absorptive condition without undergoing chemical or physical damage of fibre or fabric.
Objective:
1. To remove natural as well as added impurities.
2. To produce hydrophilic characteristics.
3. To make goods cleaner.
4. To leave the material in a highly absorptive condition without undergoing chemical or
physical damage.
Basic principle:
The scouring process of cotton consists of an alkali treatment in the presence of wetting and
sequestering agents, in order to convert the impurities, other than natural coloring matter, into
products which can be removed by aqueous washing.
The processes occurring during the scouring are:
• Saponifiable oils and free fatty acids are converted into soap.
• Proteins are degraded to simple soluble amino acids or to ammonia.
• Mineral matter is dissolved.
• Unsaponifiable oils are emulsified by the soaps formed during the hydrolysis of the
saponifiable matter.
• Adventitious dirt is removed and retained in suspension by the soap.
Factors involved in scouring:
When cleaning soiled surfaces, five variables become involved that interact during scouring and
they are as follows:
1. The nature of the surfaces to be cleaned.
2. The nature of the dirt or soil.
3. The chemicals to be used.
4. The nature of the water or solvent.
5. The nature of the detergent or soap.
45. 45
Bleaching:
In the bleaching process the colored material is destroyed and thus to confer a pure white
appearance to the fabric. Bleaching should also decolorize or remove any residual impurities left
by scouring.
An efficient bleaching process must ensure:
1. A pure and permanent white.
2. Level dyeing properties.
3. The fabric does not undergo tendering (chemical damage or degradation, which results in loss
in tensile strength and hence the durability is affected) during bleaching.
Objectives:
Bleaching of cotton is carried out with two objects in view:
1. To achieve a high degree of whiteness, for goods that are to remain white or to be dyed in
pastel shades; for goods to be dyed in dark shades, bleaching improves the brilliance.
2. To improve the even appearance of the goods by removing the husks.
Enzyme wash:
Enzymes are biological catalysts, mainly proteins, generated by an organism to speed up
chemical reactions. They have an active site on which the substrate is attached, and then broken
up or joined.
Biopolishing is an enzymatic process for finishing of cellulosic materials such as cotton, linen,
viscose, ramie and their blends with synthetic fibres. It is a process that removes fuzz and
eliminates pilling in cellulosic garments.
The enzyme performs a controlled hydrolysis of the cellulosic fibres in order tomodify the fabric
surface. This keeps the garments looking new even after repeated washes. It also enhances color,
feel and drapability. Its effects are permanent, without involving chemical coating of the fibre.
Function:
Improved resistance to pilling.
A clearer and fuzz less surface structure.
Superior finish with improved drapability and
Softness

Winch dyeing machine :
A dyeing machine consisting essentially of a dye vessel fitted with a driven winch ( usually
above the liquor level) which rotates and draws a length of fabric, normally joined end to end,
through the liquor.
Winch dyeing machines are a low cost design that is simple to operate and maintain, yet versatile
in application proving invaluable for preparation, washing or after treatments as well as the
dyeing stage itself.
Description and Dyeing Method on Winch Dyeing Machine:
The basic principle of all winch dyeing machines is to have a number of loops or ropes of the
fabric in the dye bath, these ropes are of equal length , which are mostly immersed in the liquor
in the bath. The upper part of each rope runs over two reels which are mounted over dyebath. At
the front of the machine , above the top of the dye liquor , is a smaller reel, which is called
jockey or fly roller. The fly roller remain free wheeling along with fabric rope. At the back of
winch tank is the winch wheel, which pulls the fabric rope from the dye bath over the jockey reel
for dropping in the dye bath for immersion. From the dropped location , the fabric rope travels
back . to be lifted and fed to winch wheel.
The dyeing process on winch dyeing machines is based on higher M:L as compared with other
dyeing machines. The process is conducted with very little tension . The total dyeing time is
lengthier as compared to other machines.
47. 47
Advantages of Winch Dyeing :
a. Construction and operation of winch are very simple.
b. The winch dyeing machines are suitable for types of wet processing operations
c. The winch dyeing machine is suitable for practically all types of fabrics ,which can withstand
creasing in rope form processing.
d. The tension exerted on winch is less than jigger, the material thus dyed is with fuller hand.
e. The appearance of the dyed goods is clean and smooth on winch dyeing machines.

Finishing section
Introduction of Finishing:
Textile finishing involves treating a textile material in such a way that the product has the desired
properties required for its intended useand therefore has great market value. The desired
properties may include the fabric dimensions and their stability, its weight, drape, appearance,
softness and handle, as well as any required functional properties such as resistance to creasing,
flame, water, oil, dirt or bacteria. Textile finishing is therefore an extremely diverse field
involving an extensive range of chemicals.
The degree of permanency of a particular finish for a fabric depends on its intended use. The
chemicals used may weigh the fabric to make it easy to slide and handle, or allow smooth
penetration of a sewing needle to minimize needle breakage.
Anyone involved in textile coloration must be aware of the influence of preparation process on
the dyeing behavior of the fabrics as well as the finishing chemicals on the final color of the
goods and on their color fastness properties. Without this knowledge, nobody can ensure the
ultimate color and its fastness properties.
The techniques of finishing depend on the following:
Nature of the fabric, i.e. chemical composition, state etc. this determines the appearance,
i.e. transparency, luster, fullness, weight, whiteness etc.
After dyeing, knit fabric is required to finish. During dyeing all knit fabric are dyed in tubular
form. According to buyer's requirement knit fabric are finished in Open form or tubular form.

Basic Procedure Of Production Planning &Control:
A planned work brings success. Without planning nothing is complete within the required time. So
planning has its own importance which is intolerable. Planning gives a scheduled task and control
completes it successfully. But production planning and control is not an easy task. Its basic working
procedure is as follows-
Taking order form marketing division,
Analyzing the orders
Planning for knitting the fabric
Planning for dyeing the fabric
Planning for finishing the fabric
It is only a basic procedure. It may change according to the type of order. Sometimes the order is planned
only for finishing the materials or only for dyeing the goods. Then some steps are minimizing for
planning.
Taking order from the marketing division:
N. A. Z Bangladesh Ltd. marketing division supplied fabric orders to the planning and control division by
a specific format.
Analyzing the orders:
After getting the fabric order, this section analyzes the orders according to buyers order quantity, type of
orders (i.e. type of fabric, color to be dyed etc.) delivery date etc. This section plans for required quantity
of fabric to be knitted, knitting balance, fabric to be dyed, dyeing balance RFD (ready for delivery), RFD
balance, delivery fabric & delivery balance.
Planning for knitting:
This section plans for knitting production. It selects m/c for knitting the fabric, no of m/c to be used, type
of yarn used, from which source of yarn will be collected, required GSM, width etc. It also gives delivery
date of knitted fabric.
Planning for dyeing of the fabric:
Production planning for dyeing is called "Batch Plan". Batch plan is prepared according to m/c capacity,
no. of nozzle batch no, fabric construction, color, width, GSM and priority of delivery etc. and written in
a batch card.
Planning for finishing of the fabric:
Finishing schedule is same as dyeing. After dyeing, materials go to the finishing section with the batch
plan. The fabric can be finished in the open line finish or tube line finish. Finishing line will be selected
according to the type of the fabric to be finished. Finishing data is written to the batch card and is
informed to the planning section. However this section always forces to all the departments to finish all
the workwithin the delivery time given by the buyers. Thus, it plays a very important role in the
success of the company.

The source of gas is TITAS GAS LTD.
Water
Continuous supply of water for Biswas synthetic Ltd. is ensured by Water pump. The deep well water is
subjected to Water Treatment Plant (WTP) to make sure the water qulity parameter suitable for Textile
Wet Processing.
Water Treatment Plant (WTP)
The goal of all water treatment process is to remove existing contaminants in the water, or
reduce the concentration of such contaminants so the water becomes fit for its desired end-use.
Some common contaminants in raw water (deep well water) is iron,Ca, Mg etc.
The water treatment plant is a vital part of the dyeing section where the supply water of the
dyeing floor is treated and cured for proper dyeing. The supply water contains various soluble
effluents like dissolved solids, metal compounds and other impurities which can lead to any sort
of fabric fault during dyeing the knitted fabrics
Optimum Hardness for Dyehouse water is 1-3 ppm.
In Biswas synthetic Ltd. water treatment is done in three steps by three filter tanks. The
circulation of water at different stages are controlled by different bulbs. Backwash bulbs are used
when the tank needs washing, Drain bulbs helps to drain out the water and Supply bulbs are used
to control the water supply among the filter tanks.
90. 90
Water Treatment Procedure:
Multi Grade Filter:
The multi grade filter is used for removing the residual iron contained in the treated
water.
Activated Carbon Filter:
The activated carbon filter is used for removing the remaining metals and other
impurities by passing the water flow through rocks of different sizes arranged in different
layers of the tank. At first there is a layer of small rocks and next is a layer of medium
rocks and finally comes a layer of big rocks. The tank contains a carbon layer in middle.
Softener Tank:
The heart of a water softener is a mineral tank. It's filled with small polystyrene beads,
also known as resin or zeolite. The beads carry a negative charge.
Calcium and magnesium in water both carry positive charges. This means that these
minerals will cling to the beads as the hard water passes through the mineral tank.
Soft Water Reserve Tank:
The processed soft water is reserved in the soft water reserve tank.
Brine Water Tank
The brine tank is just what its name suggests, a plastic tank that contains a brine, water
saturated with salt. The brine solution is typically made with salt or sodium.
The brine tank holds a salt solution that flushes the mineral tank, replacing calcium and
magnesium ions with sodium.
Calcium and magnesium in water both carry positive charges. This means that these minerals
will cling to the beads as the hard water passes through the mineral tank. Sodium ions also
have positive charges, albeit not as strong as the charge on the calcium and magnesium.
When a very strong brine solution is flushed through a tank that has beads already saturated
with calcium and magnesium, the sheer volume of the sodium ions is enough to drive the
calcium and magnesium ions off the beads. Water softeners have a separate brine tank that
uses common salt to create this brine solution.
91. 91
Regeneration :
In normal operation, hard water moves into the mineral tank and the calcium and magnesium
ions move to the beads, replacing sodium ions. The sodium ions go into the water. Once the
beads are saturated with calcium and magnesium, the unit enters a 3-phase regenerating cycle.
First, the backwash phase reverses water flow to flush dirt out of the tank. In the recharge phase,
the concentrated sodium-rich salt solution is carried from the brine tank through the mineral
tank. The sodium collects on the beads, replacing the calcium and magnesium, which go down
the drain. Once this phase is over, the mineral tank is flushed of excess brine and the brine tank
is refilled.

ETP (effluent treatment plant ) is used to process waste water.
There are two type of effluent treatment plant is present:
BOD (Biological Oxygen demand)
COD(Chemical Oxygen Demand)
In Biswas Synthetic Ltd.BOD (Biological Oxygen demand) system is used to treatment
effluent water.
Principle:
Simple bacteria (cells) eat the organic material present in the wastewater. Through
theirmetabolism, the organic material is transformed into cellular mass, which is no longer
insolution but can be precipitated at the bottom of a settling tank or retained as slime onsolid
surfaces or vegetation in the system. The water exiting the system is then muchclearer than it
entered it.
A key factor is the operation of any biological system is an adequate supply of oxygen.Indeed,
cells need not only organic material as food but also oxygen to breathe, just likehumans. Without
an adequate supply of oxygen, the biological degradation of the wasteis slowed down, thereby
requiring a longer residency time of the water in the system. Fora given flow rate of water to be
treated, this translates into a system with a larger volumeand thus taking more space.
