Interaction of spinning parameters in Rieter air-jet fabric properties

Abstract EN

The newest method of air-jet spinning is launched by Rieter.

This article examines the interaction effect of various spinning process parameters such as delivery speed, yarn linear density and nozzle pressures on single Jersey knitted fabric properties.

Results show that yarn linear density has the maximum effect on fabric bursting strength and abrasion resistance followed by delivery speed and nozzle pressure.

Generally, fabrics made using fine counts are weak, low abrasion-resistant and their surface are smooth.

Using high yarn delivery speed affected fabric bursting strength and abrasion resistance negatively.

Moreover, by increasing nozzle pressure, the fabric abrasion resistance improves to a specific level then it deteriorates when nozzle pressure approaches 6 bar.
