Conclusion:
The hopper bale opener is the first m/c in blow room section. It is important
because cotton is in bale from open first to produce yarn and if not open, it is
difficult to get fine yarn. The m/c that we observed was not running due to the
construction of the shed, and electricity was not supplied; therefore we could not
observe the working procedure of the m/c. But it helps to change our theoretical
knowledge in practical basis.

Object:
Main Parts:
i. Motor.
ii. Motor pulley.
iii. Beaters.
iv. Baffle plate.
v. Grid.
Specification:
i. Motor r.p.m = 695
ii. Dia of the beater = 18.6``
iii. Dia of two pulley = 21.2``
iv. Dia of one pulley = 16``
v. No. of striker = 26
Calculation:
Beater r.p.m = 695*(16``/21.2``)
= 524.5
Conclusion:
This is the second m/c of blow room line. It works step by step & for this it is called
step cleaner. It is a good instrument of opening & cleaning of cotton by the action
of beater. It also removes ascertain a out of leaves, stalk & other impurities. It is
suitable for process of low grade cotton.

i. Ducting pipe.
ii. Chute feed.
iii. Feed roller.
iv. Transport roller.
v. Brush roller.

Action:
The following actions take place in a carding machine.
i. Combing action.
ii. Carding action.
iii. Stripping action.
iv. Doffing action.
i. Combing action :
Combing action takes place feed roller & taken in. Here the pin
directions of two surfaces are the same. Combing is the straightening &
paralleling of fibers & the removal of short fibers & impurities by using a comb or
combs which is assisted by roller & brushed.
ii. Carding action:
Carding action takes place between flat & cylinder.
In carding action,
i. Directions of wire in two surfaces are opposite.
ii. The moving directions of roller are also opposite.
iii. One roller is slower & other is faster.
Working principle:
Conclusion:
Carding is the process of arranging the fiber in parallel fusion. This is
necessary for all staple fiber. Otherwise it would be impossible to produce fine
yarn. Before the raw stock can be made into yarn, the remaining impurities must
be removed. The fiber must be in different angle & they must be straight turned.
The card is the hard of the spinning mill & well carded is half spun. Demonstrated
the immersed significance of carding for the final of opening operation.

Main Parts:
i. Motor.
ii. Motor pulley
iii. Discs with strikes.
iv. Inclines Grid bar.
Wider setting: High fiber loss, poor opening & cleaning, high speed,
high productions.
Closer setting: Good opening, low speed gives lower fiber loss & low
production.
Closer setting: Fiber damage, low production, lower removal of impurities, good
opening.
Specification :
i. Motor r.p.m = 1440
ii. Motor pulley dia = 14``
iii. M/C pulley dia = 32``
iv. No. of striker = 6
Calculation :
Conclusion:
This is the third m/c of the blow room line. It stands on a vertical shaft &
hence it is called vertical opener. This m/c is a major cleaning point of blow room
line. There is a by pass system. So from step cleaner cotton can be difficulty pass
to the hopper feeder without vertical opener. It can be used in case of low grade
cotton. For beater opening & cleaning close setting of striker is done. But there is
a rise of more fiber damage. Hence moderate setting is done.

Name of Experiment : Study on passage diagram of draw frame.
Object :
i) Equalizing:
One of the main tasks of the draw frame is improving crenness over short,
medium and specially long terms. Card sliver feed to the draw frame have degree
of unevenness that can not be tolerated in practice and sliver from the comber
contain the “in famous” piecing. It is observed by draw frame.
ii) Parallelizing:
To obtain an optional value for strength in the yarn characteristics the
fibers must be arranged parallel in the fiber stands. The draw frame has the tasks
of creating this parallel arrangement.
iii) Blending:
In addition to the equalizing effect doubling also provides a degree of
compensation of raw materials variation by blending. The result is exploited in
particular in the production of blended yarns comprising cotton/ synthetic blends.
iv) Dust removal:
Dust is steadily becoming a great problem both in processing and for the
personal involved. It is therefore important to remove dust to the partial extant at
every possible point within the overall process.
Operating device:
→ Creel (Sliver feed)
→ The drafting arrangement
→ Suction system for the drafting arrangement
→ Cooling
→ Can changer
Working principle:
i) Four to eight card or draw frame slivers are feed to the drafting arrangement.
ii) A feed roller pair is located above each can to enable the feed step to be
performed in a controlled manner without false drafts.
iii) The feed roller pair is carried in a creel frame or table and each is positively
driven.
iv) The slivers running into the drafting arrangement leave it, after a draft as a
web lacking significant cohesion.
v) In order to avoid distinguish of the web, which would otherwise be
unavoidable at the high operating speeds currently in use. It is condensed into a
sliver immediately after the drafting arrangement.
vi) This sliver is then guided through a tube via a passage of the tube gear into a
can. In which it must be laid in clean coils with optimal utilization of the space in
the can.
vii) To enable the can to take up as much material as possible, the sliver is
compressed by passing it through it calendaring or grooved rollers.
Conclusion:
From a purely commercial point at view draw frame is of little
significance. But it is influence on quality and evenness is greater. The carded
sliver contains fibers which they are crimped, hooked for curled. They are
entangled with one another and their height per unit length is high. They are
irregular and constant some impurities. So they used a process for eliminating
these errors.
In cotton spinning line draw frame in the definite compensation point for
eliminating errors. So the carded sliver is actually made perfect in quality and
evenness of draw frame.
