Introduction
Spinning is the process of taking textile fibers and filaments and making them into
yarn. For thousands of years, people spun natural fibers into yarn by hand. Today,
spinning involves many methods and different machines, depending on what kind
of yarn is being made.there are various types of yarn. For example ,the cotton
fiber are converted into carded yarn, combed yarn. For producing this three types
of cotton yarn,spinning methods also different. The mejor goals of spinning is to
produce the quality yarn from raw meterial, then remove the process faults
followed by differents ways.
Friction spinning
Friction (dref) spinning system is an open-end spinning system. Along with the
frictional forces in the spinning zone the yarn formation takes place. The dref
system is used to produce yarns with high delivery rate about 300mpm. It produce
a highly uniform yarn from diverse stock including short or difficult to handle at
high production rates and low labor and energy expenses.
1. Fibers are delivered onto the drum surface, which transports and stacks the
fibers to the fiber bundle rotating between two surfaces moving in opposite
directions.
2. The fibers wrap around the bundle surface.
3. Wrapped fiber bundle (yarn tail) is tugged by the yarn delivery roll.
4. Therefore twists by fiber arrangement are generated.
5. Due to separate yarn winding and method of twist insertion, it has capability
to go for high production rate.

Types of dref friction spinning
1. Dref-1
2. Dref-2
3. Dref-3
4. Dref-5
5. Dref-2000
6. Dref-3000
Indirect feed
fibers are first accumulated on the in-going roll and then transferred to the yarn
tail.
1. It can spin yarn at very high twist insertion rates (ie.3,00,000 twist/min).
2. The yarn tension is practically independent of speed and hence very high
production rates (up to 300 m/min) can be attainable.
3. Improved dirt particle retention and up to twice the filter service life.
4. Considerable reduced yarn production costs (up to 50%) due to lower yarn
mass requirement, lower preparation costs, lower spinning costs and lower
personnel expenses.
1. Low yarn strength and extremely poor fiber orientation made the friction
spun yarns very weak.
2. The extent of disorientation and buckling of fibers are predominant with
longer and finer fibers.
3. Friction spun yarns have higher snarling tendency.
4. High air consumption leads to high power consumption.
5. The twist variation from surface to core is quite high; this is another reason
for the low yarn strength.
6. It is difficult to hold spinning conditions as constant.
7. The spinning system is limited by drafting and fiber transportation speeds.
And the yarn can be taken off and wound onto a package .
Process of air jet spinning
Air-jet spinning is the latest in a string of technological developments intended
to increase production speed and flexibility. This technique is also known as
fasciated yarn spinning. Air-jet spinning system which consists of a 3-over-3
high-speed roller drafting unit, the basic jet design is also shown. This has a
central cylindrical channel (the spinning channel) through which the fibre
ribbon from the drafting unit passes. Inclined to the channel axis but tangential
to its circumference are four nozzles through which compressed air is injected
into the channel, creating a vortex airflow.
Twist
Each jet of compressed air entering and expanding into the channel has two
velocity components of airflow: v1, a circular motion of the air around the
channel circumference, and v2, the movement of the air to the channel outlet.
The suction at the jet inlet created by v2 gives automatic threading-up of the
spinning process. Provided the drafted ribbon is not tautly held between the
front drafting rollers and take-up rollers, the v1 component of flow rotates it,
inducing a false-twisting action via a rotating standing waveform (a spinning
balloon) while v2 assists movement of the twisted ribbon through the channel.
Conclusion:
From this assignment, we have gained about the knowledge of modern spinning
methods and mostly used ring spinning method. Here we know two basic
spinning method which is really increase our knowedge. Without spinning, yarn
can’t be produced and without yarn fabric also can’t be produced.so these
analysis is very assential for our future textile engineering student’.
