Quality of Warp Yarn

The quality of warp yarn represents the imperfections in the yarn.

It may be checked in two ways, weight method and length method.

1. In weight method quality of warp is checked in term of pounds per break (lbs/break).

It can be checked by the given formula:

𝑺𝒆𝒕 𝑳𝒆𝒏𝒈𝒕𝒉 𝒎 × 𝟏. 𝟎𝟗𝟑𝟔 × 𝑵𝒐. 𝒐𝒇 𝒆𝒏𝒅𝒔/𝒘𝒂𝒓𝒑𝒆𝒓 𝒃𝒆𝒂𝒎

𝒍𝒃𝒔/𝒃𝒓𝒆𝒂𝒌 =
𝟖𝟒𝟎 × 𝑵𝒆 × 𝑵𝒐. 𝒐𝒇 𝒃𝒓𝒆𝒂𝒌𝒔/𝒃𝒆𝒂𝒎

Higher the lbs/break of warp yarn better will be the quality of yarn.

2. In length method the length of all the ends is calculated and the number of
breaks per unit length determines the quality of warp.

In length method, the breaks per 10 million meter (Mm) are calculated as follow:
