'Economise the process' is the sacred saying these days. Without an iota of doubt one can say that most significant bottlenecks affecting productivity levels in textile processing is spinning. Research has been always centered on the newer methods of yarn formation to avail the benefits which are unfound on conventional Ring spinning. Developments started from Rotor spinning, introducing DREF spinning, self twist and twistless spinning. Unfortunately these techniques are not versatile for processing larger range of counts and substrate materials like conventional ring spinning. The major limitations in Ring spinning may be summarised as follows: ⅰ) Lower delivery and production rates ⅱ) Limited traveler and spindle speed ⅲ) Difficulties in automation ⅳ) Need for process like simplex and cone winding ⅴ) A large volume of personnel and space. However factors like flexibility, universal applicability and yarn quality has acclaimed Ring spinning as a popular, method of yarn formation. An appropriate answer to brush side the above said limitations is to achieve higher spinning speeds and excellent productivity. During the last two decades the technology of staple fibre spinning has undergone drastic changes and need for newer method was felt.
