Q

why do we lay in roving?

A

we need to arrange the coils of each layer right next to each other so we dont have roving wrapping around other roving

Q

what are the two types of packages?

A

cheese and cone

41
Q

what speeds do cheese packages need to work at?

A

high speeds

42
Q

what type of yarns are mostly used on cheese packages?

A

filament yarn

43
Q

which type of package has more problems with winding packages?

A

cone

44
Q

what are cone packages mainly used for?

A

knit packages

45
Q

What does the preclearer do?

A

senses and cuts out thick and think spots

46
Q

What does the tensioner do?

A

keeps tension in yarn

47
Q

winding can increase what?

A

hairiness because of running over the metal parts

48
Q

what is the purpose of the split drum?

A

determines where the yarn ends up on the pakcage, goal to space yarn out and make sure it is not on top of each other

49
Q

3 problems in winding?

A

neps
irregularity
hairiness

50
Q

how do ribbions and patterns form?

A

traverse shift is too small and yarns wind right on top of each other

51
Q

how do budgles form?

A

due to the outer layer of yarns putting pressure and squeezing the inner layers, poor tension control

52
Q

what is clearing?

A

remvoing thick and thin spots that are predetermined

53
Q

what is splicing?

A

joining the yarn ends together, dont want it to create thick or thin spots, we normally end up with something a little thicker

54
Q

what does waxing a yarn do?

A

modifies yarn friction so it wont abrasive as easily

55
Q

what do link winders do?

A

they are connected to the spinning frame and rolls doff into winders, they mske it easier to track packages

56
Q

what do we do to staple yarns when they are twist lively?

A

twist yarns together in opposite direction than normally twisted

57
Q

Twisted yarns together =

A

plied yarns.

58
Q

twisted plied yarns togethr =

A

ropes

59
Q

twist ropes together

A

cables

60
Q

why is multifold done? (6)

A

done to improve regularity, increase strength, get balanced yarn, reduce hairness, imporve extensibility, produce speical effects

61
Q

liveliness is a function of (3)

A

time
amount of twist
finish

62
Q

reduce liveliness (2)

A

slash w heavy starch

steam

63
Q

why is ring spinning expensive?

A

because of all the processing you have to go through for labor

64
Q

65
Q

ring spinning can make what

A

any yarn size

66
Q

why does ring spinning need drafting?

A

to reduce size

67
Q

why does ring spinning need twist

A

to make yarn strong

68
Q

fiber orientation in roping is what and cohesion

A

not good and cohesion is not very strong

69
Q

why do we use a false twist spindel?

A

near the front roll to help hold it together so it wont draft there

70
Q

where does the traveler sit

A

on the ring

71
Q

where does the bobbin sit

A

on the spindle

72
Q

bobbin speed _ spindle speed

A

73
Q

belt turns forcing _ to turn forcing _ to turn

A

spindle and bobbin

74
Q

what is the drive belt connected to

A

a master cylinder

75
Q

what limits the amount of yarn on a package

A

the size of ring

76
Q

why is ring spinning sloe

A

due to travelor speed

77
Q

yarn oulls _ around the _

A

travelor, ring

78
Q

in ring spinning twist happens becasue of what

A

the spindle

79
Q

difference between traveler and spindle speed

A

traveler is a little less than spindle speed ( ab 100 rpm difference)

80
Q

in ring spinning dront roll speeds is what

A

needs to stay constant

81
Q

in ring spinning fyler and spindle speed needs what

A

to stay constant

82
Q

the travelor speeds needs to what in ring spinning

A

change

83
Q

in ring spinning if bobbin increase, travelor has to what

A

increase

84
Q

2 biggest problems in end breaks

A

high tension and high variability in yarn

85
Q

things that affect high tension in ring spinning (6)

A

yarn speed, yarn size, traveler speed, traveler weigh, ring size, surface area of ablloon

86
Q

with high tension in ring spinning what are the 3 things we change to help fix it

A

control size of balloon, changhe traveler weight, change yarn speed

87
Q

why is balloonless spinning used in woolen yarns q

A

to reduce the likelihood that yarn will break

88
Q

how does balloonless spinning work?

A

collapse the balloon by putting a crown on top of the spindle and it forces yarn to run through the crown and collapse arounf spindle

89
Q

why do we wax bigger rings

A

its more likely that the traveler will burn up and fly off

90
Q

3 major problems with ring spinning

A

speed
size of yarn package
cost

91
Q

pros to rubbing (3)

A

easier to set up
faster
easy to use

92
Q

pros to roving (2)

better cohesion and better package size

can keep working w rest of bobbins if one breaks

same yarn quality and both widely used

94
Q

5 roving objectives

A
draft
twist 
profuce roving
lay
build
95
Q

what is necessary with ring twisting?3

tension control, twisting in opposite direction single twist, end break detectors

96
Q

ring twisting process

A

ring spinning
wing and clear
twist on ring frame
rewind from ring tube

Q

how does two for one twisting work

A

the package does not turn, the twist happens from the rotation of a disc, 1 rotation inserts 2 turns of twist in the yarn
