Effect of spindle speed on end breakage and yarn quality while using lower package size

摘要

The effect of spindle speed on yarn quality and end breakage rate while using lower package size has been studied. It is possible to increase the spindle speed even by 20% in the case of 40s and finer counts while using lower package size which would offer a saving of Rs. 140/spindle/year. Yarn quality attributes like strength, evenness and thick places are not affected at higher spindle speeds whereas thin places, hairiness and CV of strength show a tendency to increase with spindle speed.
