A novel technique for the production of sustainable cotton/flax blended yarn and their quality analysis
Cotton linen blended yarn especially a higher percentage of flax in blend ratio is challenging and complex to run with conventional system of machinery. In this study a newly developed separator was implemented in the finisher draw frame and mechanical compact system used for the production of susta...

| description | Cotton linen blended yarn especially a higher percentage of flax in blend ratio is challenging and complex to run with conventional system of machinery. In this study a newly developed separator was implemented in the finisher draw frame and mechanical compact system used for the production of sustainable cotton/flax (40/60) blended yarn. It was observed that innovative separator with double apron in the finisher draw frame prevents the lapping effect and smooth running of slivers through the drafting system. The test results explored that IPI values of blended yarn reduced by 31% and CSP and tenacity increased by 20% and 15% respectively after using a separator and magnetic compact device in the process of spinning. The research findings indicated that the utilization of a separator and compactor resulted in the lowest hairiness value of 4.56 compared with the other three different types of process. All the test results were measured numerically and evaluated statistically with a one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA). Blender software was used for the development of separator design and finally produced in a local workshop. |
