Abstract
Processing parameters play an important role in influencing the quality of the final product in any kinds of production. The aim of this project is to observe the quality of the carded sliver and yarn by applying different flat speeds on the carding machine while the other machine parameters were fixed. Five flat speeds (200, 240, 280, 320, and 360 mm/min) have been used to produce slivers and yarns. Sliver fineness of Ne0.11 and yarn of two different counts (Ne20 and Ne30) were produced for assessing the quality. The unevenness and tensile properties are found to be best for flat speed 360 mm/min with significant increasing of waste percentage.
