In this article, calculate the crimp percentage of Woven Fabric will be discussed. The crimp percentage is the difference between straightened thread length and the distance between the ends of the thread in the fabric. Crimp % = (l-s)/s x 100 Measuring crimp practically is not always a simple procedure. The length of the crimped…
Loom Speed Calculation: The speed of a plain loom depends on the reed space of the loom. Wider the loom more is the time taken by the shuttle to pass from one box to another, the speed of a loom fitted with a dobby, jacquard, or a drop-box mechanism will be less than the speed…
