ACKNOWLEDGEMENTFirst and foremost, I would like to thank Allah who gave us strength, knowledge and capability tocomplete this piece of work. Two years ago we had this discussion in our team about lack of anycompiled data based on calculation. We would jump to supporting in writing a book covering all theaspects in the target field. I would like to express my sincere gratitude to my colleagues, who sawme through this book; to all those who provided support, talked things over, read, wrote, offeredcomments, and assisted in the editing, proofreading and design. Their determined efforts haveturned this book into a reality.I would like to thank the Higher Education Commission, Pakistan for providing us the opportunityto publish this book.7

PREFACEThe textile fabrics have a wide range of application in areas like apparels, home textiles andtechnical textiles. The manufacture of a cost effective quality product requires the careful planningand thorough knowledge of the production process. This objective cannot be achieved without theknow-how of the calculations involved in the fabric formation process. The latest developments andautomation in the textile machinery has resulted in a more efficient production cycle. Unfortunately,the published work available on the topic of woven fabric calculations is quite out dated, while nosignificant work has been reported on the calculations of knitted fabrics.This book is organised into nine different chapters. Chapter 1 focuses on the systems for lineardensity of yarn, and their inter-conversion. Chapter 2 addresses the winding calculations. Chapter3 and 4 are dedicated to warping and sizing calculations respectively. Chapter 5 is clothcalculations, while chapter 6 is weaving shed calculations. Chapter 7 highlights different theoriesand structural parameter of fabric geometry, while chapter 8 includes specialty calculations liketerry towel, ball warping, filament warping and sample warping. The chapter 9 is dedicated to theknitting calculations, both warp and weft knitting.The whole range of steps and calculations involved in the fabric formation process from amount ofraw material to the costing of final product have been included in the book. I hope, this book isequally beneficial for the beginners, textile engineering students and professionals of the field.Dr. Yasir NawabNational Textile University8

CHAPTER – 1YARN COUNT CALCULATIONSMuhammad Umair, Yasir NawabYarn countYarn count is a system of expressing the fineness of yarn in terms of thickness. It is therelationship between the weight and length of yarn made. Different types of count systemsformed for different types of yarn materials. Broadly the yarn count system is divided into twomajor categories: Indirect count systemDirect count system1.1Indirect count systemIn this system the count of yarn expresses the number of length units in one weight unit.This system is generally used for cotton, worsted, woollen, linen (wet spun), etc. It may be notedthat finer or less bulky the yarn, higher is its count number or in other words, the size or bulkinessof the yarn is inversely proportional to the count number and that is why the system is known asindirect system.𝐼𝑛𝑑𝑖𝑟𝑒𝑐𝑡 𝐶𝑜𝑢𝑛𝑡 𝐿𝑒𝑛𝑔𝑡ℎ 𝑖𝑛 𝑎𝑝𝑝𝑟𝑜𝑝𝑟𝑖𝑎𝑡𝑒 𝑢𝑛𝑖𝑡𝑊𝑒𝑖𝑔ℎ𝑡 𝑖𝑛 𝑎𝑝𝑝𝑟𝑜𝑝𝑟𝑖𝑎𝑡𝑒 𝑢𝑛𝑖𝑡Keeping in view the yarn material, different types of indirect count systems weredeveloped like:𝐶𝑜𝑡𝑡𝑜𝑛 𝐶𝑜𝑢𝑛𝑡 𝑁𝑒𝑐 8.33 �𝑠)𝑊𝑜𝑟𝑠𝑡𝑒𝑑 𝐶𝑜𝑢𝑛𝑡 𝑁𝑒𝑤𝑠 12.5 𝑊𝑜𝑜𝑙𝑙𝑒𝑛 𝐶𝑜𝑢𝑛𝑡, 𝑁𝑒𝑤𝑙 27.34 𝐷𝑒𝑐𝑖𝑚𝑎𝑙 𝐶𝑜𝑢𝑛𝑡, 𝑁𝑒𝑑𝑐 7 ��𝑎𝑖𝑛𝑠)

A coarser yarn will have a higher count number whilefiner yarn will have a lower count number. The system is used for very finer or very coarse yarns.𝐷𝑖𝑟𝑒𝑐𝑡 𝐶𝑜𝑢𝑛𝑡 𝑊𝑒𝑖𝑔ℎ𝑡 𝑖𝑛 𝑎𝑝𝑝𝑟𝑜𝑝𝑟𝑖𝑎𝑡𝑒 𝑢𝑛𝑖𝑡𝐿𝑒𝑛𝑔𝑡ℎ 𝑖𝑛 𝑎𝑝𝑝𝑟𝑜𝑝𝑟𝑖𝑎𝑡𝑒 𝑢𝑛𝑖𝑡Keeping in view the yarn material, different types of direct count systems were developedlike:𝑇𝑒𝑥 𝐶𝑜𝑢𝑛𝑡 1000 ��𝑛𝑖𝑒𝑟 𝑐𝑜𝑢𝑛𝑡 9000 ��𝑐𝑖𝑇𝑒𝑥 𝑜𝑟 𝐺𝑟𝑒𝑥 𝑐𝑜𝑢𝑛𝑡 10000 𝐷𝑟𝑎𝑚 𝑐𝑜𝑢𝑛𝑡 ��𝑖𝑔ℎ (𝐷𝑟𝑎𝑚) 1000 𝑊(𝐺𝑟𝑎𝑖𝑛𝑠) 𝐿 �)Table 1.1 Different yarn count systemsSr #Name of SystemUnit of weightUnit of Length1English cotton1 lb.Hank of 840 yards2French cotton½ kg.Hank of 1000 meters3Bump cotton1 oz.1 yard4Decimal (for all yarns)1 lbHank of 1000 yards10

If,L1 Length in known system,L2 Length in required systemW1 Weight in known system,W2 Weight in required systemC1 Count in known system,C2 Count in required systemWe can convert to any required system by using the concerned formula as given below:1.

There will be some contractionin length when two threads are twisted together; so that the actual count of single threadrequired producing a twofold yarn of 21s count will be slightly finer than 42s. But this contractionis not significant in ordinary cases.To calculate the count of folded yarn, assume a definite length unit, say one hank. Thenthe weight of such length unit of each component threads is found out. The sum of these weights20

will be the weight of the assumed length unit of resultant folded yarn. The length and weightbeing known; the count of the folded yarn can be easily calculated by using suitable formula asgiven below.For Indirect Count System111 𝑅𝐶 𝑅1 𝑅2And for ‘n’ number of yarn counts1111 𝑅𝐶 𝑅1 𝑅2𝑅𝑛For Direct Count System𝑅𝐶 𝑅1 𝑅2And for ‘n’ number of yarn counts𝑅𝐶 𝑅1 𝑅2 𝑅𝑛Where, R1, R2, and Rc are the count of 1st individual, 2nd individual and resultant yarnsrespectively.Note: The counts should be in same system.Example 1.10:Calculate the resultant count of three-fold cotton yarn consists of 20’s, 30’s and 15’s.Solution:1 hank of 20’s 1/20 lb.1 hank of 30’s 1/30 lb.1 hank of 15’s 1/15 lb.So, for three-fold yarn:21

If theconstituent yarns are of same count, the calculation will be very simple and easy. But if the foldedyarn is composed of yarns of different counts, the cost of the resultant yarn count will dependupon the proportion of the constituent yarns in the folded yarn.22

Calendaring or industrial ironing: A fabric is passed through a series of

piece together scraps left from the Roll Up in a strip that is at least 295" long.
