TX4202 Yarn Quality Analysis Syllabus:

TX4202 Yarn Quality Analysis Syllabus – Anna University PG Syllabus Regulation 2021

OBJECTIVES

To make the students to
 Understand different characteristics of yarns
 Understand testing of yarn
 Analyze the various reports generated during quality evaluation of yarns and
 Interpret the results obtained through these reports for process and quality control.

UNIT I MASS VARIATION OF TEXTILE STRANDS

Depiction of mass variation of textile strands in time and frequency domain; interpretation and significance of U% and CV% for textile strands; irregularity index.

UNIT II VARIANCE LENGTH CURVE

Effect of specimen length and total length on mass variation measurements of textile strands; theory of construction of VL curve; analysis of variance length curves to understand and avoid the introduction of mass variation during the spinning operation

UNIT III SPECTROGRAM

Determination of periodic mass variation in the form of spectrogram; determination of theoretical wave length from spectrum; comparison between normal and ideal spectrum; type of faults and their representation in spectrogram; interpretation of superimposed waves in spectrogram

UNIT IV TENSILE PROPERTIES

Influence of testing factors on yarn tensile properties; measurement and application of yarn modulus; creep and stress relaxation of yarn; significance of estimating minimum yarn strength

UNIT V YARN DEFECTS

Classification and analysis of yarn faults created by mass variation, their causes and remedies; yarn faults in fabrics – causes and remedies ; Hairiness of yarns

TOTAL : 30 PERIODS

LABORATORY:

Measurement and analysis of
1. U% of sliver, roving and yarn
2. Imperfections and hairiness of yarn
3. Tensile properties
4. Creep and stress relaxation
5. Yarn fatigue
6. Variance-length curve
