Describe the weaving process in textile

Introduction

For fabric production, the weaving process is a very important part of the textile. We cannot get woven cloth without weaving. In garments, we get a large portion of the fabric from the weaving process.

The weaving process in textile

Weaving is a process of textile production in which two sets of two yarns or threads are set. Other methods laced at right angles to make a fabric or cloth are knittings, crocheting, felting, breaking, or plying. Longitudinal threads are called the warp and lateral threads are the weft or filling. These threads affect the properties of the fabric in the inter-woven method. The fabric is usually woven into a loom, a device that holds the warp threads in place while filling the threads. A fabric band that meets this definition of fabric can also be made using other methods, including tablet weaving, backstrap weaving, or other techniques without weaving. The way the warp and the filling thread come together is called weaving. Most of the woven products are made in one of three basic looms: plain wave, satin weave, or towel. The knitted fabric can be simple (in one color or in a simple pattern) or can be woven into a decorative or artistic design.

The loom can be summarized as a repetition of three sequences, also called the initial motion of the loom.

A. Shading: where warp threads (edges) can be separated by raising or lowering the held frames (handles) to create a clean space where the pick can go.

B. Pickup or picking: Where the loom or pick is hand operated across the loom, an air-jet, a rapper, or a shuttle.

C. Beat-up or beating: where the groove pushes the weft against the fall of the cloth.

Conclusion

The Lancashire loom was the first semi-automatic loom. Jacquard looms and dobby looms have sophisticated fountain systems. These can be individual looms or plain looms. A Northrop loom was fully automated and was mass-produced in the mid-1909s and 1960s. Modern looms run fast and do not use any shuttles: there are air-jet looms, water-jet looms and rapier looms.
