Winding

Winding is the process of transferring yarn

from ring , bobbin, hank etc into a suitable
package.This is called as winding .

OBJECTIVES OF WINDING:

The transfer of yarn from one package to

another package ,this can be conviently used for
weaving purpose.
To remove yarn faults like hariness, neps,
slubs of foreign matter .
To clean yarn .
To improve quality of yarn.
To store the yarn.
To reduce labor cost.
Error!

REQUIREMENTS OF WINDING

Minimum fault
No damage of yarn.
Easy unwinding.
Suitable size and shape of the package.
Economical conditions.
 Avoid excess loosened and tightness.
Cheap cost of package.
In winding the yarn knots should be small
in size and amount of knots should be minimum.

WINDING MACHINE

TYPES OF WINDING:

Precision winding
Non precision winding

PRECISION WINDING
 By precision winding successive coils of
yarn are laid close together in a parallel or near parallel
manner. By this process it is possible to produce very
dense package with maximum amount of yarn stored in a
given volume.

Features of Precision Winding

Package are wound with a reciprocating traverse
Patterning and rubbing causes damage of packages
Package contains more yarn
Package is less stable
The package is hard and compact
The package is dense
Rate of unwinding of package is low and the
process of unwinding is hard
The unwound coil is arranged in a parallel or near
parallel manner
Non Precision Winding

By this type of winding package is formed by a

single thread which is laid on the package at appreciable
helix angle so that the layers cross one another and give
stability to the package. The packages formed by this
type of winding are less dense but is more stable.

Features of Non Precision Winding

Only one coil is used to make this packages
 Cross winding technique is used
The package density is low
Minimum number of yarn is wound
The package formed is soft and less compact
The stability is high
Flanges are not required
The rate of unwinding is high and the process is
easy
The packages formed have low density
CONE WINDING
Cone winding is conical package.
Cone is used in waring and knitting m/c.
It is used in weft insertion of shuttless loom.

CHEESE WINDING
Cheese winding is a parallel package .
Cheese or spool is used in warping process.
It does not used in knitting m/c.
TYPES OF PACKAGE
Parallel wound package
Near parallel wound package
Cross wound package

USTER CLASSIMAT FAULTS GRAPH

 Uster classimat faults

Yarn fault

YARN FAULTS
These are two groups ,
Frequently occurring faults
This type of faults includes thin, thick and neps
as measured by evenness tester. These faults occur in the
range of 10-5000 times per 1000
 Seldom occurring faults
These faults refer to the thin places and thick
places in the yarn, which are so seldom occurring for
atleast 100 km.of the yarn. The seldom occurring faults
can be grouped into four main types,viz. Short thick,
long thick and long thin faults.
