ANALYSIS OF WARP TENSION DURING WEAVING FABRIC WITH VARIABLE WEFT DENSITY
Abstract
In this study, warp tension change has been studied by changing weft density from a lower to a higher value in a weaving machine with electronic take up and electronic let off motions. For this purpose firstly, warp tension and cloth fell distance were measured at certain intervals from the beginning of weaving with a new weft density. Secondly, the length of fabric woven until the cloth fell reached its steady state value was determined. Finally, the warp tension measured until the steady state cloth fell values was analysed.
