| description | This research examines screening of the factors affecting cotton-sized yarn gain strength, elongation, stretch, size pick-up, and yarn abrasion resistance. The factors considered in this research are sizing machine parameters like sizing machine speed, squeezing roller pressure, warp yarn tension of various sizing machine zones, warp yarn twist, and viscosity of the size paste. Taguchi design with Minitab software has been used to design and analyze the results of the experiments. The study revealed that viscosity, yarn twist, sizing machine speed, and wet tension affected sized yarn gain strength significantly. Viscosity has maximum contribution to gain strength (34.57%) compared to other factors and has a positive effect on the gain strength of the sized yarn. For stretch percentage and the loss elongation of sized yarn, the wet tension is the most significant factor with 50.30% and 52.13% contribution respectively. Moreover, for the size pick-up and yarn abrasion resistance of sized yarn, the speed of the sizing machine is the most effective parameter with 44.45% and 56.29% contribution, respectively. The screening experimental result revealed the most significant factor that must be further optimized using response surface methods of experimental design. |
