twill weave and their feature
The order of interlacing which causes diagonal lines of warp and weft floats to be formed in the
fabric is called twill weave
The main feature of twill weave are
A twill weave is characterized by diagonal lines of warp and weft floats on the face of the fabric.
Twill line may be from lower lift to upper right (Z-twill) or from lower right to upper lift(S-twill) corner.
Smaller repeat twill is (3). It means take at least three end and three picks produce twill weave.
Appearance it will design can be seen from both sides the fabric.
Diagonal lines run at angle vary between (15-75) degree but in a continuous or regular twill is 45 degree

Classification of twill weave
Twill weaves can be classified from four points of view:
According to the face yarn (warp or weft): According to the face yarn (warp or weft):
Warp face twill weave: 4/2 S, etc. Warp face twill weave: 4/2 S, etc.
Weft face twill weave: 1/3 Z, etc. Weft face twill weave: 1/3 Z, etc.
Double face twill weave: 3/3 Z, etc. Double face twill weave: 3/3 Z, etc.
According to the nature of the produced twill According to the nature of the produced
line: twill line:
Simple twill weave: 1/2 S, 3/1 Z etc. Simple twill weave: 1/2 S, 3/1 Z etc.
Expanded twill weave: 4/3 S, 3/2 Z Expanded twill weave: 4/3 S, 3/2 Z etc.
Multiple twill weave: 2/3/3/1 S, etc Multiple twill weave: 2/3/3/1 S, etc.
Statement of the Problem
One of the basic things that all peoples need a cloth and this cloth is a flexible woven
material which consists of at work of natural or artificial fibers. The main purpose of
the cloth is that cover and protect the human body and also needs aesthetic attributes
followed by functional aspect. Twill is one types of weave that gives aesthetic
appearance
Un balanced extensibility in width and length wise direction of the fabric
General objectives
Producing fabric structure by combining S and Z twill and studying their properties
Specific objectives
To Produce fabric structure by combining S and Z twill in both warp and weft direction
To increase the aesthetic appearance of the fabric
To balance extensibility in width and length wise direction of the fabric
To minimize raveling
To make regular diagonal twill line and design reversible
To minimize number of shaft needed
To study the new fabric design properties
Significance
Benefits
Have aesthetic appearance
The design appearance can be seen from both sides the fabric
have balanced extensibility in width and length wise direction of the fabric
Diagonal lines run at angle 45 degree hence, a continuous or regular twill
Twill lines are formed on both sides of cloths
Its fabric property will better
Beneficiaries
The fabric will be applicable for all people depending on the fabric properties
after studied.
Scopes
Scope of the study
This project is only concerned about producing fabric structure by combining 3/2S
and 3/2 Z twill and studying some the basic fabric properties like:
1. Measurement of fabric structural 3. Fabric objective evaluation
parameter testing
Fabric density Fabric stiffens test
Fabric GSM Fabric drape test
Yarn crimp in fabric 4. Fabric physical property testing
Air permeability test
2. Fabric strength testing
Tensile strength testing
Tear strength testing
limitations
There are some limitation for the production of the combined s and z twill like:-
The structure of the fabric is only produce in dobby sheading mechanism (i.e.
impossible to produce in tappet sheading)
Introduction
Twill is a type of textile weave that has a pattern of diagonal parallel ribs. This technique is
done when the weft thread crosses over one or more warp threads and then under two or more
warp threads and so on.
Twill fabric description
The fewer interlacing in twill allow the yarns a greater range of motion and thus can move
more freely. Usually is softer, more pliable, and drape better than plain-weave textiles.
Alternatively, because fewer crossings, the yarns can be set closer together, producing a higher
thread count fabric that is heavier and therefore can be more durable and resistant to wind and
water

Fabric properties
Woven fabrics used as technical textiles are subjected to forces, which are parallel and
perpendicular to fabric plane also. The effects of forces, which are parallel to fabric plane,
and behaviours of fabric against these forces can be evaluated by measuring breaking strengths
and elongation at breaks of fabrics along both warp and weft directions.
Classification of twill weave [5].
A. According to the way of construction
Warp way twill weave: In warp way twill weave warp float run in the warp direction
Weft way twill weave: In weft way twill weave weft float run in the weft direction.
B. According to the direction of twill lines on the face of the fabric
S-Twill:
When the twill runs from the lower right to the upper left corner, the twill is known as a left-
hand twill. It is produced by downward displacement of the interlacing points, if the starting
point is bottom left corner or upward displacement of the interlacing points, if the starting
point is bottom right corner.
cont.…
Z-Twill:
When the diagonal line runs from the lower left corner to the upper right corner, the twill is
known as a right-hand twill. About85% of all twill-woven fabrics are right-hand twill. The
alignment of twill Iine is parallel to the middle portion of 'Z', so it is called Z - twill.
Expanded twill weave: Each warp end is raised over or lowered under more than one
adjacent pick in the repeat
Multiple twill weave:In each repeat, there are at least two warp twill lines or two weft twill
lines of different width.
