Abstract

In this work the influence of sliver preparation has been investigated with rotor speed and diameter. Three yarn counts (medium range) were produced, using carded and combed sliver. Each yarn was produced at three levels of rotor speed and two levels of rotor diameter. Properties of the produced yarns were examined. Results show that, increasing rotor speed deteriorates yarn regularity, strength, elongation and imperfections of combed yarns. Increasing rotor diameter reduced number of thin places. It also improved regularity of combed yans.
