INTRODUCTION

When the bales of cotton arrive at a spinning mill, these are

subjected to the very first process, which is definitely Blow Room. In the blow room of Masood Spinning Mills Ltd. mainly opening and cleaning is done. In opening the bales of cotton are broken into small tufts. The higher the degree of opening, the higher is the degree of cleaning. The second main purpose is to clean the cotton. From boll to bale cotton goes through different processes due to which the bales arrive at mill contain different impurities. In blow room, we have to remove all these impurities to prepare our cotton for next process. OBJECTIVES

1. To reduce the density of raw cotton mass by an opening process

2. To reduce the tuft size exposing new fiber surfaces, that allows impurities to be removed

3. To reduce the tuft size in order to improve the mixing of cotton and regularity of the feedstock delivered to the next process.

4. To achieve these objectives with a minimum damage to the fibers

INPUT OF BLOWROOM The material input to the blow room was in the compressed form and full of trashes or impurities i.e. leaves, seed, chaff, metallic particle and dusts etc. OUTPUT OF BLOWROOM After going through the processes of the blow room, the output in the form of small tufts and it is cleaned and opened. MOISTURE AND HUMIDITY The relative humidity in Blow Room should be 50%-55%. The moisture in material of blow room should be 5.50%-5.75%.

CLEANING EFFICIENCY OF BLOW ROOM The effectiveness of the cleaning machines of blow room is expressed as cleaning efficiency of hat machine. It is expressed as follows:

The standard blow room cleaning efficiency is 60%-65%. The amount of waste removed at each stage of cotton cleaning stage should be known for evaluation and can be found out as:

Any opening & cleaning machines must remove certain amount of useful fibers along with trash that is called “waste (trash useful fibers)”. 40-70% by weight of waste is present at blow room after processing. TRANSPORTATION OF MATERIAL FROM BLOW ROOM TO CARD For the transportation of the fibers from the blow room to the card the chute feed system is used in Masood Spinning Mills Ltd. In chute feed system the ducting pipes and the chute is used. The fibers are taken from the last roller through the condenser, which creates the suction and then feed them to the card machine. The condenser is very important part of the blow room. Its main function is to take the fibers from the back part and supply them to the next part. All this operation is down on the bases of the sucking function of the condenser. Basically the condenser consists on a fan, stripping roller and a perforated roller. The fan is connected with a high-speed motor, which rotates it at a high speed. The grid roller has holes on its surface, which helps it to suck the fibers from the back machine. When the fan and the grid roller rotates with the help of the motor, an air vacuum is generated which sucks the fibers from the back rollers

INTRODUCTION

Carding is one of the most important processes of the short

staple spinning system. Carding is an operation where the tufty condition of the fibers is converted into an individual fiber form. The separation of fibers in individual form is one fundamental operation of carding while the other fundamental operation is the formation of the card sliver. The carding is a very important process because unless the fibers are separated into individuals, they can not be spun into smooth and uniform yarns neither can they be blended properly with other fibers. In Masood Spinning Mills Ltd. there are 14 DK 903 carding machines made by Trutzschler (Germany). OBJECTIVES Following are the objectives of carding process;

1. To open up the flocks into individual Fibers 2. Cleaning 3. Reduction of neps 4. Elimination of dust & Short Fibers 5. Fiber Blending & Fiber Orientation 6. Sliver Formation

MAIN PARTS The main parts of DK 903 card are following;

1. Tuft feeder directed DFK 2. Opening roller 3. Feed plate 4. Feed rollers 5. Taker- in 1, 2, 3 6. Segments of taker-in 7. 2 Mote knives with suction hoods 8. 6 Back stationery flats and suction hoods

DIFFERENT ACTIONS AT DK 903 CARD FEED ROLLER AND TAKER-IN Point to point action is taken place between them. Fibers are passed through feed roller to the Taker-in and at this point opening is taken place. There is a mote knife, which diverts the fibers to the main grids that are placed beneath the Taker-in. in this way heavy trashes are removed and main cleaning is taken place at this region.

TAKER-IN AND CYLINDER Point to back action is taken place between cylinder and taker-in. Fibers are transferred from taker-in on to the cylinder. Wires are mounted on the surface of the cylinder and taker-in so that the small tufts opened up into the individual fiber. Cylinder and taker-in are moved in opposite directions. The diameter of the cylinder is much greater than the taker-in.

Page 21: Internship Report Arslan

Internship Report

CYLINDER AND FLATS The main carding action is taken place between cylinder and flat. The speed of the flat is about 4 to 6 inches per minute. Due to the speed of the flat about 60 times lesser than the swift and due to the point-to-point action following actions/functions are taken place:

Fibers become in an individual form Extensive opening and cleaning is also taken place Removal of short fiber, embedded into the empty places

between flats Neps are removed

Cylinder moves clockwise and flat moves in anticlockwise direction. Distance between cylinder and flat is about 3/1000 inches.

CYLINDER AND DOFFER In this region web is formed. Doffer having diameter of about 27 inches rotates in anticlockwise direction just picks the fiber from the cylinder and web formation is occurred on the surface of the doffer. Surface speed of the doffer is about 25 times lesser than the cylinder for the web formation.

TRASH AT CARD The trash that is present at the card consists of Neps, dust & foreign impurities. These wastes are collected in a separate waste collector after they pass through grid bars through air suction.

REMOVAL OF NEPS AT CARD Actually Neps are generated due to the seed and also due to the continuous beating at blow room. These Neps form thick and thin places in the yarn. Therefore for removing these Neps, wiry surfaces of different velocity are used at carding. Neps are removed at carding region (between flats and cylinder).

FORMATION OF THE SLIVER There is a stripping roller that removes the web from the surface of the doffer. After passing through the calendar roller (that grips the web) a funnel type device is used (called as trumpet guide), which condenses the web into the sliver.

COILER MECHANISM This mechanism consists of two disks (coils) i.e. inside and outside disks. Sliver from the trumpet guide is dropped into the sliver can through inside disk in the form of coil.

SLIVER CAN It is a drum that collects the sliver from the card. The cans used at card DK903 in Masood Spinning Mills Ltd. have a height of 48 inches and width of 24 inches.

FUNCTION OF DIFFERENT PARTS The detail of the basic function of different parts at the DK903 card is given below: Tuft feeder Tuft feeder has the function to feed the fibers into the card. The fibers are taken from the chute and then are thrown on the feed plate. Feed Rollers Feed rollers take the fibers lab and feed them to the taker-in. Feed roller are of about 5/2 inches in diameter and the width of the card (39-40 inches). Between the feed roller and the taker in the point-to-point action is taking place and the trash is removed. Taker-In Taker-in has the main function of cleaning the fibers. It takes the fibers from the feed rollers and opens them. In DK-903 three taker in rollers (web feed rollers) are used each roller is of about 9 inches diameter. The 1st taker-in is covered with spikes while the 2nd and 3rd taker-in is covered with saw teeth wire. Below and above these rollers the suction is provided. As the fibers are opened the remaining trash from the fibers falls down and is collected into the trash collector. This trash is known as the TAKER-IN. This trash cannot be reused and is soled into the market. It is the last point where the trash can be removed. Between the taker in and the cylinder the point to back action is taking place. The fibers are transported to the cylinder from the taker in roller. Cylinder It is a large hollow cylinder mounted in the middle of the card. The main carding of the fibers takes place between the cylinder and the flat set. The cylinder has the diameter of 50 inches. The surface of the cylinder is also covered with the wire with the sharp head. The thickness, hardness and height of wire is less then that of doffer and the taker-in roller but the no of heads per inches are higher then that of the taker-in and the doffer. Between the main cylinder and the flats, the point-to-point action is taking place and the carding action is

taking place. In Masood Spinning Mills Ltd. the speed of the cylinder is kept 500rpm. Revolving Flat Set The flat set is mounted on the top of the cylinder and helps in the doffing effect of the cylinder. In DK903 card there are a total of 84 flats usually made of aluminum, in one flat set out of which 30 are in working condition. Each flat set has the sharp wires on it. The top set or flat set has the length of about the 38-40 inches but the thickness, width; no of wires per inch vary with the flat set. Usually the flat set has the width of about 1.5-1.75 inches and the 450 wires per square of inch. There are two brushes on the top of the flats which are used to clean the flats. In Masood Spinning Mills Ltd. usually the speed of the flat set is kept between 230-280mm/min. Pre and Post Carding Segments The function of the pre and the post carding segments is to provide extra carding elements to the fibers. More the carding elements are in the carding zone better carding (opening and individualization) happens. These segments are provided between the taker-in and the flats (pre carding segments) and between the flats and the doffer (post carding segment). Point to point action id there between the pre/post carding segments and the main cylinder. In DK903 card there are 3 sets of stationary flats as the pre-carding segments and 2 sets of stationary flats as post-carding segments. *Each set contains two stationary flats. Doffer Roller Doffer roller has wire on its surface. It has the main function of transferring the fibers from cylinder to the take of roller. It takes individual fibers from the cylinder and converts them into a web. It rotates with the surface speed of about 22-24 rpm. Between the main cylinder and the doffer the point to point action is taking place and the neps are being created there in the fibers. Stripping Roller When the fibers from the doffer roller come out the stripping roller stripes them. It has the surface diameter of 7 inches.

Calendar Rollers Calendar rollers have the sole function of calendaring i.e. to press the fiber stand (sliver). When the fibers (in the form of a fiber sheet) come out, they are passed through the trumpet and then to the calendar rollers. In DK903 card there are two types of calendars. One is at the front of the card called as the front calendar rollers (105 mm) and second on the coiler called as the coiler end calendar rollers (50 mm). Both have the smooth surface and press the sliver so that the sliver gets some strength and can easily be wound and unwound. Coiler KH or Can Changer KHC Coiler has the function of winding of the sliver into the can. Coiler has a calendar roller, which press the sliver before the winding. The sliver is wound in form of the circular sheets in the can. The coiler and the can rotate in such a way that the coiler rotates in high speed then that of can, forming the sliver sheets in the can. OPERATIONAL PROCESS OF THE CARD DK 903 Tuft feeder feeds fibers into the card back (taker-in). The taker-in (three rollers with the spikes and the sow teeth covering) removes the trash particles from the fibers. Then the fibers are fed onto the cylinder. The cylinder further spreads out the fibers with the help of the top set or flat set. The cylinder and the flat set rotate in opposite direction. The gauge between the cylinder and the top-set is set in such a way that the fibers should be completely parallelized in the axis of motion. Then the cylinder delivers the fibers in the form of a fiber sheet to the doffer. The doffer simply takes the fibers from the cylinder and delivers them to the take off roller or the doffing roller. From the doffing roller the fiber sheet is converted in the form of a sliver (fiber stand) with the help of a trumpet. Then it is passed through the front calendar rollers and then wound into the can with the help of the coiler. The coiler also has a metallic trumpet and calendar rollers. The coiler speed is more than that of the can. This difference in the speeds favors the winding of the sliver into the can.

WASTES AT CARDING MACHINE Following are the types of waste at carding machine;

Taker-in 1 Taker-in 2 Taker-in 3 Fly Front Trash Back Trash

FORMULAS PRODUCTION RATE It can be calculated as follows;

DRAFT The degree of reduction in the linear density of the fiber material is called as the draft. Draft can be expressed in two forms: (1) Actual or Technical Draft

(2) Mechanical Draft

If the percentage waste removal during the carding machine is (W) then the actual and mechanical draft are related to each other as:

MOISTURE AND HUMIDITY The relative humidity at the carding section should be 50%-55%. The moisture in material should be 4.40%. CONTROL MECHANISMS IN THE CARD DK903 Various control mechanisms are installed in the card DK 903 all these are controlled by the main card commander. Main functions are given below;

To control and regulate the feeding and the production To control the speed of different rollers as required To control the pressure at different rollers

INTRODUCTION

Since the main function of combing is to remove short fibres,

if the carded slivers are directly fed to the combing machine, the waste extraction would be very high and also lot of fiber breakage will take place. This is due to the fact that fiber orientation in the card sliver is very poor and also the card sliver has majority of hooked surfaces. So it is desirable for the card sliver to be prepared into such a form which is suitable for the combing operation. For this reason carded sliver is first passed through a breaker drawing machine. The sliver from the breaker drawing machine is then fed to the UNIlap machine which forms a suitable lap with straight and parallel fibres which is presented as a feeding material to the comber.

PROCESS

The working principle of the Unilap machine E32 machine is shown below:

In Masood Spinning Mills Ltd. feeding head is provided with 22 cans. All the slivers are passed through sliver guide elements which guide them to the drafting zone. The gentle sliver guide elements in E32 improve the run-ability of the machine and have a positive impact on better quality. Static and dynamic sensors are also installed in E32 which detect missing or stationary slivers and the fault signal is on.

- 28 -

Page 31: Internship Report Arslan

Internship Report

The drafting system in UNIlap E32 machine is 3/3 cylinder system.

After drafting the slivers are condensed to make a lap sheet. The lap sheet formed by the combination of these drafted slivers is passed through a pair of calendar rollers and is ultimately wound on the lap tube with the help of two winding rollers. The lap tube is placed on lap weighing device which automatically removes the lap roll on a semi automatic transport system SERVOtrolley E 6/4-T* when its required weight has been reached. This system automatically takes the lap roll away and automatically loads the empty lap tube and the lap winding begins. The regulated automatic lap loading safeguards the ideal pressure of the lap on the lap rollers during the complete build-up cycle.

INTRODUCTION

Combing is an optional process in the processing of short

staple fibres necessary for the preparation of high quality combed yarn. The process of combing is carried out after carding and the combed sliver after passing through the draw frame follows the regular path of yarn formation. The carded sliver still has some trash particles, neps and short fibres in it. In addition to it, the individual fibres in the card sliver are not well aligned longitudinally and majority of them have hooked surfaces. The basic purpose of combing is to remove short fibres and remaining impurities and to make the fibres well aligned and straight so that only high quality long fibres are used for making a yarn. In Masood Spinning Mills Ltd. there are 7 E62 combing machines made by Rieter (Switzerland). OBJECTIVES Following are the main objectives of combing

1. To separate the long fibres from the short ones. The longer fibres are processed into a combed sliver whereas the shorter fibres are removed as a waste. Depending upon the quality of the yarn required, predetermined quantity of short fibres are removed during the combing process.

2. To eliminate the remaining impurities and trash left by the carding process. The waste combination of trash, short fibres and neps is collectively also called a noil. The amount of noil removed during combing ranges from 5% to 25% depending upon the quality of the yarn.

3. Elimination of majority of the neps in the fiber material 4. To straighten and align the separated long fibres. 5. To create a combed sliver with maximum possible evenness.

WORKING OF E62 COMBING MACHINE 1. FEEDING The combing cycle begins with the feed of the lap. The lap sheet is fed to the comber between the feed roller and smooth cushion plate also called as the bottom nipper. The top nipper or the nipper knife moves down to fix on the bottom nipper (cushion plate). Hence the lap sheet is gripped between the top and the bottom nippers.

2. CYLINDER COMBING As the lap is held by both the nippers, the half lap or the cylinder comb rotates and the protruding fringe of the fibres is combed with the help of needles mounted on the cylinder comb. Any fibres not held by the needles will be treated as short fibres and will be removed as a waste during the rotation of the circular comb. The waste (noil) is removed from the surface of the needle with the help of a revolving brush mounted just below the cylinder. The waste removed is then collected by suction at the back of the comber.

Cylinder Comb

3. PIECING As the half lap or circular comb has finished combing and has cleared the fiber fringe, the detaching roller remains stationary and does not rotate however only the back top detaching roller rocks backward. At the same time the top nipper is raised while the cushion plate or bottom nipper rocks forward. Also the feed roller rotates by a small and amount feeds a predetermined length of lap. This increases the length of the lap fringe and as the bottom nipper moves forward, the leading edge of the lap fringe is entered into the nip of the detaching rollers and initiates piecing. During piecing the top comb also starts descending.

4. TOP COMBING Just as the piecing has started, a top comb with one row of needles is descended into the fiber fringe from the above. As the combed web of fibres is pieced or connected to the surface of the detaching rollers, the detaching rollers now start rotating forward and the combed web of fibres is pulled through the top comb. As the fibres web is pulled through the top comb, short fibres, neps and entanglements not removed by the circular comb is removed here by the top comb. As the bottom nipper reaches its maximum forward position, the detaching is completed because the detaching rollers continue to move forward while the bottom nipper begins to rock backwards. As detaching finishes the top comb is withdrawn upwards.

The feed roller again rotates and advances a new short section of the lap to be combed by the bottom circular comb and the same combing cycle continues.

5. SLIVER CONDENSING & DRAFTING The combed web taken by the detaching rollers is delivered to the web pan having a trumpet guide on its one side as shown below:

The hardness of the top rollers is 70 shore. The combed web is pulled through the trumpet guide with the help of a pair of calendar rollers that converts the web into a combed sliver. The diameter of the table trumpet is 6mm. there are total 8 delivery points on E62 comber. The combed slivers coming from all the 8 points of the comber are laid side by side and are passed through a draw box where draft is given. On E62 comber 3/5 roller drafting is used where the rollers are inclined at an angle of 60°.

INTRODUCTION

Despite of many advantages of the carding process it has a

big draw back of producing variation and misalignment of the fibres with in the card sliver. The alignment and the slight parallelization achieved at the carding region between the main cylinder and flat largely disappears again because of the doffing action at the doffer. During the transfer of the fibres from the cylinder to the doffer hooked surfaces in the fibres arise. About 50% of the fibres in the card sliver has trailing hooks, 15% fibres have leading hooks and 15% of the fibres have double hooks and only a small portion (20%) of the fibres remain straight.

In order to produce a strong and uniform yarn it is necessary to straighten and align the fibres and to improve the evenness of the sliver. All of these objectives are achieved by the drawing process carried out by a machine called as the draw frame. At the draw frame a number of card slivers are drawn or stretched between several pairs of rollers. As the fibres are attenuated or drafted, the fibres are straightened and aligned to the axis of the sliver in the direction in which they are drawn.

Drawing is the final process of quality improvement in the spinning mill.

OBJECTIVES

1. Fiber Parallelization through drafting rollers 2. Improving Fiber Orientation along sliver axis. 3. Fiber Blending 4. Some dust removal

MAJOR ZONES Rieter RSB-D30 draw frame can be divided into following zones

1. Creel Zone 2. Drafting Zone 3. Sliver Condensing Zone 4. Coiler Zone 5. Suction Zone

1. CREEL ZONE Creel is the portion of the RSB-D30 draw frame where the card sliver cans are placed. It has the main function of guiding the sliver into the doubling and drafting zones. The creel consists of rods, which guide the slivers. It also has photocells, which detect the breakage of the sliver and stop the machine when sliver breaks. In Masood Spinning Mills Ltd. 8 cans are placed under the creel and one end of the sliver in taken and fed into the breaker drawing machine.

Page 47: Internship Report Arslan

2. DRAFTING ZONE It has the sole function of drafting. Drafting means the reduction of mass of sliver per unit area or the increase in the length per unit mass (two ways of describing the function).

The drafting zone consists of rollers arrangement. Top rollers are synthetic while bottom rollers are made up of steel and are fluted. These rollers are driven by a single belt. On Rieter draw frame RSB-D30 the roller arrangement is 4/3.

Drafting performed by back rollers is not so prominent; however

front rollers perform the actual draft. The draft in the back rollers is known as the Break Draft because the back rollers just break the sliver stand and there is no effect in the mass per unit length. The Main Draft occurs in the front rollers. Here the sliver stand is reduced to the required mass per unit length value or the draft. The total draft is the multiple of the break draft and the main draft.

3. SLIVER CONDENSING ZONE

The flat fiber web (consisting of several card slivers) exiting the drafting section is converted back into a sliver. The fiber web leaving the front pair of drafting rollers is passed through a converging tube and is guided to a specially designed condensing funnel called as the trumpet guide.

- 45 -

Page 48: Internship Report Arslan

Internship Report

The degree of condensing at the trumpet guide is essential for providing a good fiber to fiber cohesion to hold them better in a sliver. After condensing of fibres at the trumpet guide back into a sliver form, the sliver is passed through a pair of calendar rollers which does a further compressing of the fiber mass and ultimately deposits the drawn sliver into a sliver can. 4. COILER SECTION

The drawn sliver coming out of the calendar rollers is passed through a coiler tube fixed on a coiler plate.

The coiler gears fixed on the coiler plate help to rotate the coiler tube so that sliver can be laid in the can in form of special coils.

The dimensions of the can are 20” X 48”.The can rests on the rotating plate, with the rotation of the plate the can also rotates. The rate of rotation of the can is kept slower than the rate of rotation of the coiler tube. This helps in proper deposition of drawn sliver in a spiral arrangement. The sliver deposition rate is kept slightly higher than the sliver delivery so that blockage of the sliver in the tube may be avoided. However this difference should not be too large to avoid false drafts.

Page 49: Internship Report Arslan

5. SUCTION SECTION

In RSB-D30 draw frame as the fibres move swiftly over the

surface of the drafting rollers, dust and lint may be dislodged into the air. The purpose of the suction system on the draw frame is to remove these particles so that they might not get deposited on the surface of the drafting rollers and also to maintain a dust and lint free working environment. The accumulation of the fibrous mass on the surface of the rollers causes unevenness in drafting and sometimes also causes sliver breakages causing the machine to stop. Air suction system used on the RSB-D30 draw frame is shown below:

STOP MOTIONS

There are four types of the stop motion are used in the RSB-D30 draw frame

Sliver breakage stop motion (on the creel) Stop motion for overlapping (on the drafting rollers) Stop motion on the web gathering Stop motion on the coiler

MOISTURE AND HUMIDITY The relative humidity on Drawing Frame should be 57%. The moisture in material should be 4.40%.

AUTO-LEVELING AT RSB-D30 Leveling principle The Autoleveler draw frame RSB-D30 is equipped with a digital leveling system. This function has the principle of open loop control. By means of this system, mass variations of feed slivers are leveled out in a range of ±25 %. The result is a sliver with excellent short, medium and long-term evenness. Measuring Scanning with a well known principle of tongue-and-groove rollers take place with shortest and especially constant scanning distance. Therefore, these signals are independent of the feeding speed. The pneumatic loading of the tongue-and-groove rollers guarantees constant scanning pressure. This is independent of feed sliver weight

variations unlike conventional spring loaded systems. Surroundings and fiber related interference have no influence on the measuring system. Compared to a caning sliver by means of a fixed-position lever, the well-proven principle of tongue-and groove rollers shows certain fundamental advantages. Tongue and groove rollers produce scarcely any friction between fibers and metal. This reduces the amount of deposits-an essential issue for perfect long term count stability. On the other hand, the lower friction allows the application of higher compression forces with the rollers on the incoming sliver. Variations in mass can thus be measured more precisely. Digital Autoleveling Based on the measured values, the leveling processor calculates a nominal value for the high-dynamic AC servo drive. It is transferred exactly in the moment, when the measured piece of sliver arrives at the leveling point within the main drafting zone. A planetary gear superimposes the constant basic speed of the main motor with the variable speed of the servo drive. It then only needs to provide the differential power for the Autoleveling function.

Ensured by this concept and supported by the increased dynamics of the servo drive, the correction speed is always sufficient even with delivery speeds up to 1000m/min. thus, piecing and unevenness in combed sliver are also eliminated.

RIETER QUALITY MONITOR

The Rieter Quality Monitor (RQM), placed after the drafting system, reliably avoids the production of faulty sliver. This system, independent from the leveling unit, controls the sliver mass continuously and stops the machine in case of exceeding preset limits. The new sensor unit delivers values of highest accuracy. The quality Monitor can be connected to the Rieter Mill Monitoring System SPIDERweb for further analysis. Quality data of RQM

INTRODUCTION

The drawn sliver is composed of clean and straightened fibers

lying parallel to one another and to the axis of the sliver. These characteristics of a drawn sliver are ideal for creation of a yarn. However this is not possible because if the drawn sliver is to be directly converted into a yarn it would require a mechanical draft of a range of 300 to 600. But this is impossible. So an intermediate stage of drafting is carried out using the roving frame. The draft given at the roving frame reduces the linear density of the drawn sliver into a less thick strand of fibers suitable as an input to the ring frame. This roving which is fed to the ring frame can then be easily converted into a yarn by giving a draft of 15 to 40.

Another advantage of making roving is to have a better package as an input to the ring frame. The roving frame produces roving on compact small packages called as bobbins. The bobbins are much more convenient to transport and have less chances to get damaged as compared to the can sliver mode of package. In Masood Spinning Mills Ltd. there are 7 FL100 roving frames made by Toyoda (Japan). Each machine has 120 spindles. OBJECTIVES There are three basic objectives of the roving frame process

1. To draft the material to the required linear density. 2. To insert the required twist. The twist level in simplex frame is

usually very low because this is an intermediate stage between sliver and yarn formation.

3. To produce a stable package that is suitable for transport, handling and storage.

MAIN PARTS OF ROVING FRAME Drawing Sliver Can These cans are the output of drawing process and input for roving process. The dimensions of the can are 20” X 48”.

- 54 -

Page 57: Internship Report Arslan

Internship Report

Roving Frame Creel It is used for lifting the drawing sliver in the space between sliver can and drafting zone. Drafting Rollers There is three or four pair of rollers, which convert a drawing sliver into roving sliver. Flyer The purpose of flyer is to insert twist. Each flyer rotation creates one turn in the roving. Spindle Drive and Support Spindle holds the bobbin and this mechanism drives the spindle and also gives support to the spindle. Carriage Lifting Works Help the bobbin to do vertical motion due to which the sliver is wound on the bobbin in a proper manner. FL100 ROVING FRAME The FL100 is a high-speed roving frame that drafts sliver into high-quality roving and is simple to operate. This all is possible due to the advanced technology of its automatic computerized control of flyer speed adjustment and winding tension. With a high-speed flyer and cone drum less operation, it gives excellent productivity. FL100 roving frame can be divided into following zones:

1. Creel zone 2. Drafting zone 3. Twisting and Winding zone

1. CREEL ZONE The creel of the roving frame has the cans with the drawn sliver. It guides the sliver to the drafting zone. Following are the main parts of creel;

a) Cans b) Sliver guide rollers

- 55 -

Page 58: Internship Report Arslan

Internship Report

The creel in the FL100 roving frame is the area designated for the drawn sliver cans which are positioned at the back of the machine. Just above the cans number of independently driven guide rollers are provided that helps the sliver to move toward the drafting section. Since the fibers in the drawn sliver have less coherence so it is necessary to keep the surface speed of the guide rollers equal to the surface speed of the back drafting rollers so that any false drafting may be avoided that can damage the sliver. Just before the drafting section a photo-electric sensor is used which detects the presence of the sliver and as the sliver breaks it automatically stops the machine. 2. DRAFTING ZONE Following are the main parts of drafting zone;

a) Condenser bar b) Apron bar c) Fiber collector d) Apron e) Bottom rollers (4) f) Cleaning cloth (top and bottom) g) Trumpet (smooth and grooved)

Drafting section of the FL100 roving frame is composed of 4/4 roller arrangement. Bottom roller used are steel fluted rollers (Diameter 28.5mm) while the top rollers (Diameter 28mm) are covered with some synthetic rubber covering. The hardness of the top rollers is 75 shore. The top rollers are pressed down with sufficient force on to the bottom rollers to ensure proper grip of the fibers. Due to four pair of rollers there are three drafting zones.

1. Back zone drafting or break draft (between back and 3rd roller). 2. Middle zone drafting or carrier draft (between 2nd and 3rd

roller). 3. Front zone drafting or main draft (between front and 2nd roller).

The drafting is done by increasing the speed of rollers as the first roller speed is lesser than the second one, the second roller speed is

- 56 -

Page 59: Internship Report Arslan

Internship Report

lesser than the third roller and third roller speed is lesser than the fourth roller. The stop motion is with every drafting roller.

4/4 Drafting System at FL100 roving frame

APRON SYSTEM In the FL100 roving frame a double apron system is provided at the middle pair of drafting rollers. The top apron is short while the bottom apron is longer. Both of these aprons are made of synthetic rubber. Both these aprons in cooperation with each other guide and transport the fibers during drafting. The aprons help to support the floating fibers and drastically reduce the drafting wave. It is important that the aprons should extend as close as possible to the nip line of the front rollers. The length of the aprons also called as the cradle length is kept approximately equal to the staple length of the fibers. DRAFT DISTRIBUTION An important consideration of the drafting zone is the draft distribution i.e. how much draft should be given in the back and front zones. The draft at the back zone is called as break draft and it should be as low as possible while majority of the draft is given at the front zone where there is an apron control over the fibers and is called as the main draft. The total draft is the product of break and main draft. Generally the break draft for cotton lies in the range of 1.05 to 1.15 and all the remaining draft is given at the main drafting zone. The break draft is just meant to straighten the fibers and to prepare them for a major draft at the front drafting zone. If the break draft is increased beyond an optimum value then the evenness of the spun yarn drastically reduces due to the formation of thick and thin places.

3. TWISTING AND WINDING ZONE Following are the main parts of this zone;

1. Flyer 2. Spindle 3. Spindle rail (bobbin rail) 4. Bobbin

The winding section comprises of a spindle and a flyer. A spindle is a long steel shaft that acts as a support and a driving element for the flyer. The flyer is a special component of the roving frame that helps to insert twist in the roving. The spindle is mounted at its lower end in a bearing which gets its drive from the train of gears and transmits it to the flyer. Just around the flyer a shaft is fixed around the spindle with a collar that gets its drive independently from a separate set of gears. An empty bobbin made of plastic is mounted on this shaft. The bore of spindle is 20mm while the bore of simplex bobbin is 21mm. The arrangement of a spindle and a flyer is shown below:

TWISTING MECHANISM Roving from the front rollers passes into the top of the flyer and down to hollow leg to emerge next to the 3 presser winder and is wound on the bobbin. Weight of the simplex bobbin is 231-235g.

- 58 -

Page 61: Internship Report Arslan

Internship Report

The dimensions of the simplex bobbin are;

Length: 452 mm, Base Diameter: 45 mm, Collar Diameter: 60 mm Surface speed of bobbin is greater than he flyer speed hence on each revolutions of the flyer one turn is given to the material as the end of roving at the delivery roller is not rotating but the end at the top of the flyer is rotating. Flyer speed is kept constant; hence twist level remains constant during the whole process. WINDING MECHANISM The drive to all spindles is given from one motor. As the package builds up, the spindle speed decreases so as to facilitate even winding. Flyer and spindles both are positively driven so as the bobbin diameter increases speed of spindle also decrease to compensate. Winding tension is maintained by the precision sensors and computer control.

STOP MOTIONS Stop motions installed on FL100 simplex frame are:

a) Creel Stop Motion. b) Sensor before back rollers. c) Sensor after front rollers.

MOISTURE AND HUMIDITY The relative humidity on Roving Frame should be 57%. The moisture in material should be 5.25%-5.75%.

In Murata Auto Coner 7V disc type tensioner is used in which the yarn is passed through two disc plates and a sufficient pressure is applied to the plates. The amount of tension produced in this case would be directly proportional to the amount of pressure on the discs. However in Murata Auto Coner 7V-II gate type tensioner is used. 3.

n, ballooning effect, etc. As the yarn breaks, the stop motion installed on the machine causes the machine to stop immediately. Murata Automatic Winder 7V-II makes use of optical sensors for stop motion. The yarn is passed through a pair of sensor having a transmitter and a receiver. The transmitter transmits light which can only be received by the receiver when there is no yarn between them i.e. when the yarn breaks. As soon as the receiver starts receiving the light, the machine is stopped immediately.

During the winding process, breakage of threads may take place. The breakage of threads may occur due to;

1) The deliberate action of the electronic clearer for the removal of thick and thin places.

2) The result of extra force build-up on the yarn due to many reasons like frictio

Piecing or Joining of Broken Threads In Murata Automatic Winder 7V-II splicing method is used for the joining of broken ends. The splicing is done in the Splice Box. The procedure of splicing is as follows:

1) Suction mouth takes the yarn from the upper side (cone) and retie pipe goes down opens its mouth about 5mm takes the yarn from the lower side. Both suction mouth and retie pipe make use of air suction to pull the yarn.

2) Each broken end is untwisted in Untwisting Pipes by applying twist in the opposite direction to the twist in the yarn.

3) Both broken ends of the yarn are placed on each other in splicing nozzle G
