TEXTILE SPINNING

Spinning:

• Spinning is a major part of the textile industry. 
• It is part of the textile manufacturing process where three types of fibre are converted into yarn,then fabrics, which undergo finishing processes such as bleaching to become textiles. 
• The textiles are then fabricated into clothes or other products. 
• There are three industrial processes available to spin yarn, and a handicraft community who use hand spinning techniques.
• Spinning is the twisting together of drawn out strands of fibres to form yarn, though it is colloquially used to describe the process of drawing out, inserting the twist, and winding onto bobbins.
• Ring-spinning is the most common spinning method in the world.
• Other systems include air-jet and open-end spinning. 
• Open-end spinning is done using break or open-end spinning. 
• This is a technique where the staple fibre is blown by air into a rotor and attaches to the tail of formed yarn that is continually being drawn out of the chamber. 
• Other methods of break spinning use needles and electrostatic forces.
• The processes to make yarn short-staple yarn (typically spun from fibres from 0.75 to 2.0") are blending, opening, carding, pin-drafting, roving, spinning, and—if desired—plying and dyeing.
•  In long staple spinning, the process may start with stretch-break of tow, a continuous "rope" of synthetic fibre. 
• In open-end and air-jet spinning, the roving operation is eliminated. 
• The spinning frame winds yarn a bobbin.Generally, after this step the yarn is wound to a cone for knitting or weaving.
