In textile world, nearly all types of yarns that one can imagine can be created. Some of them are easier to create, and some others have to deal with more accurate processes. Those yarns made out of fibers which are difficult to be treated are sometimes wrapped by a filament in order to give them the consistence needed to develop the yarn. These particular types of yarns are called wrap yarns. According to that, the primordial aim of the project is to set the ideas of a future prototype able to create wrap yarns. To achieve it, it has been done a general study of the existing machines and possible alternatives. The prototype that is being sought would have to enable the study and creation of different types of wrap yarns. For this reason, it has been tried to develop a prototype able to deal with some particular features to create different types of yarns. Those features taken into account are the following: - The prototype should have to be able to treat all types of length fibers (long and short fibers). - The prototype should have to be able to create yarns out of ribbon or roving. In order to accomplish the objective of the project, first of all it has been studied what the prototype needs to have. Once the general idea of the prototype has been set, it has been discussed about how this idea could be achieved. In other words, which are the alternatives that can make the idea became into a reality. Once the brainstorming of alternatives has reached all of the possibilities, those which are more suitable are the ones that have been described and analyzed. By now, the possibility of developing the prototype looks more achievable and more documented and studied. Besides the main objective, there are other two more simple objectives that are also wanted to be achieved. Both objectives are related with extending the knowledge in textile engineering. On the one hand, the first aim is to get to know the fibers and their properties. On the other hand, familiarize with the manufacturing process that fibers follow to be converted into yarns and inquire into its last stage, the spinning stage. To achieve those objectives, some books have been greatly useful. Specifically: The Rieter Manual of Spinning; and Fundamentals of Spun Yarn Technology.

The aim of the project is to develop the design of a prototype capable of producing a specific type of yarn: wrap spinning. This method consists, as its name suggests, in wrapping continuous filaments around a ribbon of parallel fibres. First of all, in order to go in depth into the textile area, there have been studied the principle characteristics of the fibres that compose the yarns. Moreover, it has been described the process followed by the fibres that constitute the yarn. Hereafter, there have been exposed the most common methods used at the present time for producing yarn and specifically the one that will characterize the prototype design: wrap yarn technology. The study of different machines capable of making wrap yarn has been done for the purpose of analysing the principles in which they are based and later on presenting a range of prototypes designs. The different alternatives will be compared and contrasted to identify the positive aspects of each proposal. Several books and Internet pages have been used in order to be highly documented within the framework of yarn technology. Furthermore, visits to Schappe Techniques and Bergère de France SA were greatly beneficial to the project development.

Existing textbooks covering the subject of yarn manufacture largely concentrate on describing the workings of machines. Fundamentals of Spun Yarn Technology presents complete coverage of yarn manufacture and technology and current research findings on the structure and properties of spun yarns. Written by a well-known and respected authority on textile technology, it not only introduces the subject, but it provides students with an advanced understanding of the various process stages. The book introduces the rudiments of staple yarn technology, covering the manufacturing process, the raw materials, and processes including short staple, worsted, semiworsted and woollen spinning, doubling, and specialty yarn processes. It also covers the more advanced studies in staple yarn technology, including new developments in fiber preparation technology, carding technology, roller drafting, gilling, ring spinning, open-end rotor spinning, air jet spinning and new research on unconventional spinning systems. This extensive range of topics, along with hundreds of tables and illustrations presented in Fundamentals of Spun Yarn Technology make it a comprehensive and up-to-date treatment of the field.

This book provides an invaluable single source of information on the advances in yarn spinning technologies. Advanced spinning systems are described and comparisons are made of the properties of the yarns produced, and resultant finished products, with those from conventional systems.Part one provides an introduction to yarn fibre spinning and structure. Chapters discuss the principles of ring spinning and open-end spinning of yarns. Yarn structure and properties from different spinning techniques and yarn structural requirements for knitted and woven fabrics are also examined. Part two covers advances in particular yarn spinning technologies. Topics range from siro spinning to compact spinning technology and air-jet spinning. Final chapters explore how to minimise fibre damage which occur during spinning and the use of spin finishes for textiles.With its distinguished editor and array of international contributors, Advances in yarn spinning technology is an important text for spinners, yarn manufacturers and fabric producers, as well as researchers, technicians, engineers and technologists in this sector of the textile industry. Documents advances in spinning technologies and presents comparisons between systems Assesses particular textile spinning technologies with specific chapters focusing on siro, compact, rotor, friction and air-jet spinning Reviews measures to minimise fibre damage caused by spinning are investigated with specific relevance to rotor and friction spinning

Spun Yarn Technology provides a comprehensive review of the principles of spun yarn technology. Chapters are devoted to topics on spun yarn technology such as yarn production, properties of yarn, opening and cleaning loose fibers, fiber blending, the process of carding, and roller drafting, doubling, and fiber control. The spinning process, yarn folding, yarn preparation (winding, tensioning, splicing, and steaming and storage), and the kinds of specialty yarn are presented as well. Textile technologists will find the text very useful.

The third edition of Knitting Technology, widely recognised as the definitive text on the subject, has been thoroughly revised and updated to include all the latest developments. Beginning with the fundamental principles and moving on to more advanced aspects, it combines in a single comprehensive volume the basics of warp and weft knitting, fabric structures and products, the different types of machines, principles of production and terminology to provide an invaluable reference for textiles students, textile engineers and technicians involved in knitted garment design and manufacture. Fundamental rules and principles are emphasised throughout. Aspects covered include flat, circular, full fashioned, hosiery, raschel, tricot and crochet production. Development of the various types of knitting machines, their actions and mechanisms as well as the construction, properties and end uses of the products which they manufacture are also included. The book is indexed and referenced in detail and includes numerous labelled diagrams and photographs. Terminology is defined either according to The Textile Institute's terms and definitions or current usage in the industry and is supplemented where necessary by American or continental terminology. Although SI units and the tex yarn count system are explained and used in the text, other systems have also been employed wherever it has been considered that their usage is still important. A number of worked calculations are included to clarify the examples given. Knitting technology is the ideal textbook for a range of textile courses from technician to degree level and The Textile Institute's examinations as well as being an essential companion to all those involved in the knitting industry.
