    Course Title:-Textile Coloration ll Lab

    Experiment No:-06
    Experiment Name:- Determination of areal density of
    given fabric by using GSM cutter.
    Submitted to:- Submitted by:-

    Experiment No:-06
    Experiment Name:- Determination of areal density of
    given fabric by using GSM cutter.
    Introduction: 
    The GSM of fabric is one kind of specification of fabric which is
    very important for textile engineer for understanding and
    production of fabric. GSM means Gram Per Square Meter, that is
    the weight of fabric in gram per one square meter. By this we can
    compare the fabrics in unit area which is heavier and which is
    lighter.

    Objectives:
    1. To determine the GSM of the given sample of fabric.
    2. To compare the GSM of them.
    Apparatus:
    1. Template
    2. Quadrant Balance
    3. Scissor
    4. GSM Cutter
    5. Electric Balance.

    Machine Description: 
    GSM cutter machine are highly precise fabric cutting equipments
    and highly demanded as well as appreciated in fabric industries.
    One time investment life long hustle free running comes with
    complete metal parts, no workable knife or rubber pads involved.
    GSM round cutter offered by us come filleted with precision
    finished and superior grade aluminium and brass blades as well
    as other associated metal parts that ensure uniform cutting of
    woven, non woven as well as knitted fabrics. The specialised
    cutters finding usage in the process of determining the GSM of
    the product and besides fabric cutting carpet, paper products and
    board products. Further as these cutters are freely rotatable,
    locking device which is engaged while the cutter is not in use.
    Working Principle:
    1. For measuring with quadrant balance at first we should
    cut the fabric sample according to the template area. By this way
    cut 5 samples.
    2. Now weight these samples in pounds by quadrant balance
    according to100 yards scale.
    3. By this way we get the weight in pound per 100 square yard
    fabric.
    4. For measuring GSM, we should cut the fabric sample by
    GSM cutter. By this way we cut 5 sample.
    5. Now weight these samples by electric balance in grams.
    6. By this way we get the weight in gram per one square meter
    fabric.
    7. Now find out the average of these found weights.

    Calculation:
     For sample 01, GSM  = Sample weight in gm x 100
                                       = 2.55 x 100
                                       = 255
     For sample 02, GSM  = Sample weight in gm x 100
                                       = 2.25 x 100
                                       = 225
     For sample 03, GSM  = Sample weight in gm x 100
                                       = 2.36 x 100
                                       = 236
     For sample 04, GSM  = Sample weight in gm x 100
                                       = 2.45 x 100
                                       = 245
     For sample 05, GSM  = Sample weight in gm x 100
                                       = 2.50 x 100
                                       = 250

    So, Average GSM      = (255+225+236+245+250)/5  


                                       = 242.2
    Calculation:
    Observatio Sample Weight GSM Average
    n No.: in gm GSM
    01 2.55 255

    02 2.25 225

    03 2.36 236

    04 2.45 245   242.2

    05 2.50 250

    Result:
     The weight of the fabric is 242.2 GSM.

    Conclusion: 
    The instrument is very popular in the textile industries to measure
    GSM of fabric. It can use easily to determine accurate GSM for
    non woven and woven fabric.
