How is roller setting of draw frame measured?
At the draw frames, the drafting or stretching of the slivers takes place through pairs of rollers set apart at a pre-defined distance and rotating at different speeds. The distance between the nips of the pairs of rollers is commonly referred as the �roller setting�.
What is draw frame in spinning?
Draw Frame is a machine for combining and drawing slivers of a textile fiber (as of hemp for rope manufacture or cotton for spinning). Draw Frame is the operation by which slivers are blended, doubled and leveled. In short staple spinning the term is only applied to the process at a draw frame.
What is doubling in draw frame?
Doubling is a process used in yarn manufacturing by which a single product is produced from a several intermediate feed product. For example, sliver doubling where 4 to 8 slivers are fed to draw frame and 1 sliver is delivered.
What is the function of drafting rollers in draw frame?
The roller drafting system drafts the input sliver into a ribbon-like parallel fibre strand. High-pressure air is injected into the nozzles, causing swirling airstreams inside the nozzle. This results in the insertion of false twist into the drafted fibre strands.
What is finisher draw frame?
Finisher Draw frame: Feed material is breaker draw frame drawn sliver. During this process 6-8 breaker slivers are fed to this machine to produce more parallelized & uniformed finisher sliver.
What is yarn doubling?
The doubling process Doubling of yarn where two or more stands or ends of yarn are twisted together. There are many purposes where doubled yarn is used. Sometimes thread is doubled to make warp, and it is invariably used for the manufacture of knitting yarn, crochet yarn and sewing yarn.
What is a draw frame?

What is breaker Drawframe?
Breaker-during this process 8 silvers produced by carding machine are paralellized to produce one sliver. Finisher-it is done to give furthur strength and stability to the sliver. The drawn sliver from breaker draw frame is again drawn.In this process the sliver drawn in the breaker draw frame furthur used.
Why should you go for yarn doubling?
The main objectives of doubling process are: To improve yarn regularity and produce a stronger yarn. To produce trade yarns and fancy yarns. To modify yarn characteristics such as elongation, luster, crimp, hairiness etc.
What is the purpose of doubling and twisting of yarn?
Why doubled yarns are twisted? Ans: The purpose of this operation is to unite, by twisting, two or more doubled yarn ends, in order toobtain a stronger yarn.
