UTM JSML 2022

5.1 DESIGNING
Designing comprises of aesthetics added to enhance the beauty of fabrics. The design
studio is where the concept of a fabric takes birth. This is where the textile designers
develop designs according to the clients or for the brand collection. This department
is vital to push the process of production of fabrics.

Principle of working
▪ Determination in quality, pattern and colour types of the fabrics to be produced
every season.
▪ Domestic reduction is attended one season prior to delivery while that for export
one year before hand.

5.1.1 DESIGN PROCESS FLOWCHART

Chart 5.1 Design process flowchart

NIFT BHUBANESWAR Page- 33


UTM JSML 2022

5.1.2 THE PROCESS


• First, A client is picked then a deep study and forecasting is done according to
the client’s needs.
• Then the textile designers propose the design. They deal with colors, patterns,
material aesthetics, etc. Mood boards and color palletes are made.
• A particular design is made in various colors to match the client needs and to
find out which out of the options is best.
• The people involved in the technical sector of this department turn the designs
into a machine fed format.
• Then the designs are sent to the MD for approval. The MD decides which
design would be applied in which technique.
• Then samples are developed. Sampling is a very important part of product
development. It is one of the key elements of the pre-production processes in
textile industries. This process includes details like product type, colors,
design detailing, etc.
• The sampling process takes different times according to client needs and the
design development.
• Then the samples are sent to the customers for approval, if any retouch is
needed, it is done or else it is sent to MD for approval and then the designs are
sent for bulk production.
• The UTM-JSML Design studio is not just limited to creating patterns and
colors for fabrics, the workers also specialize in color, computer designs,
creating template like pictures, slogans, textile art, etc.

• The industry also showcases the deign every year in a show. In 2022, this
show is named as ‘MOOD’

NOTE- Editors are there in the design studio to edit the designs made by
designers and reduce the total colors to be used in the designs. Many colors are
used in the designs out of which very less are selected and reduced by the editor.

UTM JSML 2022

▪ Designers use the Wilcom Software for textile designing and design digitization.
▪ For embroidery punching also Wilcom software studio E3 is used by the industry
and for editing, Texcelle software is used.
▪ Net Graphics and Point Carre are the softwares used for implementing the
designs in jacquard techniques.
▪ This industry mainly makes 3 fabric design collections with around 300 samples
per collection, of their own per year excluding the customer orders.
▪ The company participates in Foreign Textile Fairs like Heimtextil Fair in
Januaries (Frankfurt, Germany), Proposte Textile Fair in Mays (Como, Italy) and
Mood Textile Fair in Septembers (Brussels, Belgium). Due to Covid-19
Pandemic, the company didn’t participate in textile fairs and only working for
clients.
▪ For a regular customer, a particular design is copyrighted and sold maximum for
tenure of 5 years. Most large scale companies apply this rule to the designs.
▪ So, every year more than 600 design samples are made out of which only a few
are selected

6.2 MERCHANDISING PROCESS AND ACTIVITIES


Merchandising is the process of planning right merchandise at the right time, in the
right quantity and at the right price to meet the needs of the company’s target
customer.
Merchandising involves a constant watch of the production of the apparel products. It
is an intricate and detail-oriented job. If done properly, it can be very rewarding.On
the contrary, if it is done with a lack of knowledge, insufficient skills and
thoroughness, it can be destructive. As the job of the merchandiser is to have constant
eye on the manufacture and communicate with the manufacturer to get the goods as
per the requirement of the buyer.
The ultimate aim of the apparel merchandising department is to satisfy customer
needs.

These are the activities done in this department:


• Internal & external communication
• Sampling
• Preparing internal order sheets
• Preparing purchase orders
• Getting approvals
• Advising and assisting production and quality department
• Taking responsibility for inspections
• Giving shipping instructions and following shipment.

• Internal and external communication:


A merchandiser must communicate with a variety of people, including suppliers,
nominated factory owners, fabric producers, and so on.

• Sampling:
For all garment merchandisers, sampling is one of the most vital jobs. Samples must
develop in accordance with the buyer's instructions in this case. Prototype samples, fit
samples, fit samples, photoshoot samples, salesman samples, size set samples, and other
sorts of samples should be generated here.

• Approval :
It is the other important task of merchandising. At first, lab dip should be done by
maintaining the buyer’s recommendation and submitted by the merchandiser to the buyer
for its approval. If it’s ok then the buyer approved it for running fabric production.

• Preparing internal order sheet:


Internal order sheets, such as costing sheets, booking sheets, and so on, are necessary for
an merchandiser to prepare.

NIFT BHUBANESWAR Page- 38


UTM JSML 2022

• Preparing purchase order:


The merchandiser for the garments should prepare many forms of purchase orders
here, such as fabric, sewing thread etc.

• Assisting production and quality department:


A garment merchandiser must have to make a good relationship with the garment
production and quality department for smooth and fault-free production. This also
creates a great impact on shipping the product timely.

• Inspection:
Inspection should be done before shipping the product to the buyer. Here, the
merchandiser plays a significant role to inspect the product by using a strong quality
department or third-party quality inspector.

• Shipment:
It is the last and final task of an apparel merchandiser. Here, the garment merchandiser
advises various instructions to the commercial department about the shipment of a
garment export order. By maintaining those instructions, the commercial department
will ship the products to the buyer.

NOTE-
• For invoicing, the industry has its own software made in c++ which was developed
20 years back. There is a master folder (sample master) and fabric master for the
purpose.
• Sample master has the important information about the samples developed for the
customer.
• Sample master is used for producing new fabric i.e. for the new customers.
• Details in sample master include
o Finish weight
o color codes (given by the company)
o color description
o width of fabric
o quality of fabric
o color creation name
o process etc.
• The fabric master has information of purchased fabric like color no., weight (before
degumming), fabric/warp and weft composition, costing weight (after degumming)
• All the data entered here in the folders are then sent for weaving.

NIFT BHUBANESWAR Page- 39


UTM JSML 2022

Some important functions performed by this department are:


• Providing management information
• Budgeting
• Garment costing
• Administration
• Management Information

6.3 ROLE OF MERCHANDISERS


• Role of Merchandiser with Buyer:
A garment merchandiser receives the tech pack and spec sheet from the buyer. He has
to work with various departments and prepare a validity report and a feasible cost. The
cost will be informed to the buyer, price is negotiated and confirmed. The purchase
order is then sent by the buyer along with the letter of credit. At the various stages of
samples, prints embroideries, and accessories are sent to the buyer for approval. Once
the buyer approves them. Goods are produced and shipped.

• Role of Merchandiser with Sampling department:


In this step, the garment merchandiser organises for the approval of the first sample,
which may be in only one size, the preproduction sample, which may be in jumping
size or the complete size set, embroidery, print approval, and placement approvals.
Any increase in measurement will result in an upcharge, which is examined and
validated on the measurement chart. All of the Buyer's modifications have been made
to the paper design. At this point, the fabric and accessories have been accepted.
• Role of Merchandiser with Purchase Department:
The purchase department is divided into two departments such as fabric and
accessories.
price management- Merchandisers collaborate with designers to manage the price of
a product according to the customers’ budget. For example, if the price of a product is
US$30 but the customer’s budget is US$20, the merchandisers and designers come
together and subtract some elements or change some materials and blend the fabrics
instead of using pure materials. As a result, the product is finalized at the cost of the
buyer’s budget. Because the price of the product usually depends on the materials,
extra work done and efforts. Usually, a 5% adjustment price is taken from the buyer to
compensate the price of samples which are sent to them for approvals.
Usually pricing is two types-
• FOB- pricing by company
• CIF- pricing by supplier
Usually, regular customers order 200-300 meters of one design of cloth in 2-3 colors in
one order with an approximate addition of around 100 meters per color. First time
orders can take up to 10 weeks to be fulfilled, regular customer’s orders can take up to
8-9 weeks to complete and orders with velvet weaving takes up to 12 weeks to
complete.

NIFT BHUBANESWAR Page- 40


UTM JSML 2022

NOTE-
NORMAL COSTING- In normal costing the company usually keeps a profit of 25%
and then gives the budget to the buyer accordingly.
EXPRESS COSTING- express costing is meant for the regular and trustable
customers only, here the company shorts down the profit to approximately 17% to
18% and then gives the budget to the buyer. This cut down in profits is generally
done by the managing diector (MD).

9.1 INTRODUCTION
In today’s world of globalization many industries are building strong supply chains to
gain advantage over their competitors by offering the best value to their customers.
The supply-chain management (SCM) has become very critical to manage risk,
dynamism, and complexities of global sourcing. A totally integrated supply chain is
required for the company to get gain the maximum benefits.

9.2 SCM (SUPPLY CHAIN MANAGEMENT)


Supply chain is characterized by the flow of goods, services, money, and information
both within and among business entities including suppliers, manufacturers, and
customers. It also includes all types of organizations engaged in transportation,
warehousing, information processing, and materials handling. Sourcing, procurement,
production scheduling, manufacturing, order processing, inventory management,
warehousing, and, finally, customer service are the functions performed throughout
the supply chain. The ultimate goal of SCM is to meet customers’ demand more
efficiently by providing the right product, in the right quantity, at the right location,
on the right time, and in the right condition.

SCM aims four major goals:


1. Waste reduction:
2. time compression
3. flexible response
4. unit cost reduction.

• Yarns are basic requirement for production of fabric. Instead of spinning their own
yarn, the company gets it from other small factories.
• It come packed in cones or hanks which are then stored in yarn store.
• Most yarns come from Tamil Nadu and China.
• The industry has two separate stores: one for in-house production (mostly samples)
and other for work order.
• The yarns for in-house production, (usually samples) are located on first floor. The
yarns are dyed and stored in cheese forms. They are stored in racks according to their
type. They also have some special yarns, i.e. yarns with patterns which have very
colorful and aesthetic appearance.

10.1 RAW MATERIAL STORE


The raw material store (for work order) is located on ground floor of the weaving
section. The Purpose of the Raw Material store is to receive Raw material from
outside party and from inside departments and deliver as per the requirement with
care. It stores the raw material with proper order, receives waste from various
departments, and dispatches the waste material. The yarns are stored in various racks
as per their sort. The yarns are then issued by the in charge according to work order.
Most of the yarns are stored in cheese and hank form as per requirement. They are
usually stored in paper cones while silk, linen are cotton are stored in hank form for
further preparatory process (for ex : dyeing, degumming etc.).

10.4 VARIOUS RAW MATERIALS


10.4.1 SILK
Silk is a natural protein fiber, some forms of which can be woven into textiles.
The protein fiber of silk is composed mainly of fibroin and is produced by
certain insect larvae to form cocoons. The best-known silk is obtained from
the cocoons of the larvae of the mulberry silkworm Bombyx mori reared in
captivity (sericulture). The shimmering appearance of silk is due to the
triangular prism-like structure of the silk fiber, which allows silk cloth to
refract incoming light at different angles, thus producing different colors.
Silk's absorbency makes it comfortable to wear in warm weather and while
active. Its low conductivity keeps warm air close to the skin during cold
weather. It is often used for clothing such as shirts, ties, blouses, formal
dresses, high fashion clothes etc.
SOURCING- The industry gets these silk yarns from China in hank form. Its
density is 1120 denier (2 ply).

Fig. 10.3 Silk yarn

10.4.2 COTTON
Cotton is a soft, fluffy staple fiber that grows in a boll, or protective case,
around the seeds of the cotton plants of the genus Gossypium in the mallow
family Malvaceae. The fiber is almost pure cellulose, and can contain minor
percentages of waxes, fats, pectins, and water. Under natural conditions, the
cotton bolls will increase the dispersal of the seeds. The fiber is most often
spun into yarn or thread and used to make a soft, breathable, and durable
textile. It is comfortable to wear and slow to dry. It wrinkles easily and can
withstand heat, detergent, and bleaches.
SOURCING- Jaipuria gets its cotton yarns from Hyderabad and Tamil Nadu.
It is usually packaged in both cone and hank forms.

Polyester fibers are sometimes spun together with natural fibers to produce a
cloth with blended properties. Cotton-polyester blends can be strong, wrinkle-
and tear-resistant, and reduce shrinking. Synthetic fibers made using polyester
have high water, wind and environmental resistance compared to plant-derived
fibers.
Polyester is used in the manufacturing many products, including clothing,
home furnishings and industrial fabrics. It does not absorb moisture but does
absorb oil; this quality makes polyester the perfect fabric for the application of
water, soil and fire-resistant finishes. Its low absorbency also makes it naturally
resistant to stains. The fabric is easily dye-able, and not damaged by mildew.

SOURCING- In Jaipuria, they source most of polyester yarns from Tamil


Nadu. Other sourcing places include Surat, Diu Daman, Bangalore,
Mumbai.

NOTE- Some customers (mostly from outside India) prefer environment


friendly polyester. SO for them, recycled polyester is made which is spun
from waste plastic bottles, ocean waste etc. This recycled polyester is GRS
(global recycle system) certified. Ex- 2/10 polyester.
• ATY- AIR TEXTURISED YARN – This polyester derived yarn is has a
shiny silk like texture and is used in warping.
• FDY- FULLY DRAWN YARN -Another polyester derived yarn
• ROYAL SHRINK YARN-Polyester derived yarn used for giving
embossing effects, since it doesn’t shrink when heated. Ex- 220 Polyester.
• FLAME RETARDANT YARN- This polyester derived yarn is used in
fireman clothes and equipment since it is resistant to burning and melts
down when burnt.

10.4.4 LINEN
Linen is a textile made from the fibers of the flax plant. Garments made of linen
are valued for their exceptional coolness and freshness in hot and humid
weather. Linen is very strong, absorbent, and dries faster than cotton. Because of
these properties, linen is comfortable to wear in hot weather and is valued for
use in garments. It also has other distinctive characteristics, notably its tendency
to wrinkle.
SOURCING- Linen yarns are sourced from China of 44 denier density. It is
also sourced from Tamil Nadu, Nagpur (GOLDEN FIBER COMPANY) and
West Bengal.
They are often sent in hank form. Most of the yarns are stored in cheese and
hank form as per requirement. They are usually stored in paper cones while silk,
linen and cotton are stored in hank form for further preparatory process (for ex:
dyeing, degumming etc)

10.4.5 VISCOSE
Viscose is a semi-synthetic fiber. Viscose is a low-cost fabric. It can be found in
cotton end uses, as well as luxurious velvets. Viscose is the oldest manufactured
fiber, first being produced in 1883 as a cheap alternative to silk. It is more
sustainable fabric than any other synthetic fiber. It is very breathable fabric and
drapes well. It has excellent color retention and highly absorbent. It is very soft
and comfortable.
SOURCING- Viscose yarns are sourced from Bangalore (Aditya Birla)
mainly filament viscous, Tamil Nadu( mainly spun viscose), West Bengal
(Jayshree textiles).
NOTE- 2/24 viscose is used for piling of velvets.

UTM JSML 2022

11.1 WINDING OF YARNS


Winding is the process of moving yarn or thread from one type of container to
another for further processing. The yarns for in-house manufacture (often samples)
are kept on the first level. Dyeing and storing the yarns in cheese shapes They’re
arranged in racks according to kind They also offer some unique yarns, such as those
with patterns with a bright and appealing look.

The raw components in the paper cone, such as spun polyester, polyester, and viscous,
are turned into cheese and packaged coloured The coloured yarns are then
transformed once again to bobbin or cone, depending on the situation Natural yarns,
such as cotton and silk, are available in hanks. The form is directly delivered for
dying in the hank. Then, depending on the use, they are turned to cones or bobbins.
Each hank was 840 yards in length, and the other raw materials in the length of the
paper cones was 1200 metres. Cones are commonly used for warping and for weft
cheese/bobbin is used.
• There are a total of 8 winding machines.
• One machine had 8 sections and each section had 6 spindles.

11.2 KEY POINTS


• Yarn count – Higher the yarn count, the higher the winding efficiency.
• Yarn quality – Improved yarn quality means an increased winding efficiency.
• Workload – If the workload per worker increases, the winding efficiency will be
decreased.
• Worker efficiency – If worker efficiency increases, the winding efficiency also
increases.
• Power failure – If power failure increases, the winding efficiency will decrease.

• Capacity utilization – If more capacity utilization is observed, the winding


efficiency decreases.
• Winding machine quality – If the maintenance and overhauling of the winding
machine are not perfect, the efficiency is decreased.
• Humidity – In the case of cotton yarns, increased humidity results in increased
winding efficiency. But, in the case of other yarns, increased humidity means
decreased winding efficiency.
• Doffing time – If the doffing time is more, the winding efficiency is lesser

UTM JSML 2022

12.1 DYEING
Dyeing is the process of colouring textile materials by immersing them in an aqueous
solution of dye, called dye liquor.
UTM - JSML majorly focuses on yarn dyeing. Yarn dyeing is the dyeing of the yarns
before they have been woven or knitted into fabrics. In yarn dyeing, dyestuff
penetrates the fibres in the core of the yarn. The primary reason for dyeing in the yarn
form is to create interesting checks, stripes, and plaids with different-colored yarns in
the weaving process as the company manufactures home decor.
Skein/Hank dyeing and Package/Cheese dyeing processes are followed in the industry
for the dyeing of Cotton, Linen, Viscose, Polyester, Spun Polyester and Silk.

12.2 SAMPLE DYEING LAB


Dyeing lab is the place where all dyes are made and experimented on yarns. When the
company gets an order, sampling is done here for shade matching. Before bulk dyeing,
a small sample (in grams) is dyed and with the help of which the % dyes added is
calculated A Pipet is used to carry color from the color box and pour into the load

12.4 SHADE MATCHING AFTER DYEING


A Color Matching is used wherever products must have the same color properties
during production. A Color Matching contributes to quality control. The Color
Matching is a simulation instrument which is capable of displaying certain
situations in order to analyze color characteristics of individual samples by means of
different light types. After dyeing process is complete, the dyed yarns are matched
with the required sample using color matching cabinet.

Table 12.1 Light sources of colour matching cabinet

12.7 HANK DYEING


Skein dyeing consists of immersing large, loosely wound hanks (skeins) of yarn hung
into dye vats that are especially designed for this purpose. The skein of yarn is looped
over a hook washed in water, opening the fibers to receive the dye. The color
penetration is the best in case of hank dyeing. Once the desired color is achieved, the
yarn is steamed to fix the dye to the fibers. Because it does not use as many chemicals
as other forms of dyeing, hank dyeing is less damaging to the material. Although
package dyeing route is much simple and easy to follow for dyeing of different kinds
of yarn, but still the hank route is popular for certain qualities, there are two reasons
for this:
• The quality and nature of the product does not allow to follow package route Certain
kinds of yarns which are so delicate that their physical properties such as strength
appearance, texture and construction cannot be retained while following the package
route in which yarn is processed under stretched conditions at elevated temperatures.
• The package route is non practical and non-economical. For small industries, hank
dyeing is preferable when there is a small order quantity instead of package dyeing.
Package dyeing is most suitable for dyeing of bulk order quantities

12.8 CHEESE DYEING


In Cheese Dyeing the yarn is wound on a small perforated spool or tube called a
cheese. Many spools are fit into the dyeing machine in which the flow of the dye
bath alternates from the center to the outside, and then from the outside to the
center of the cheese. The term cheese dyeing usually denotes for dyeing of yarn that
has been wound on perforated cones. This helps in forcing the dye liquor through the
cheese. With the start of dyeing cycle, the dye liquor goes on circulating throughout
the vessel and tank. This happens till all the dye is used up or fully exhausted.
Package dyed yarns do not retain the softness and loftiness. They are very widely
used for most types of yarns that are found in knitted and woven fabrics. The main
reason for the use of this dyeing is for manufacture of plaids, stripes, checks and
other multi - colored designs.

Fig. 12.14 Cheese dyeing mechanism

Yarn dyeing in package or cheese form is done at high temperature and under high
pressure, with the packages mounted on hollow spindles. These spindles are fixed on
the dyeing carriers , which is inserted into the dyeing vessel after closing the lid of the
machine ,the dyeing liquor is forced through the packages in two way pattern (inside
to out and outside to in) and goes on circulating throughout the vessel and yarn. The
machine has a pump that forces the liquor movement inside the main tank. This pump
is the heart of the machine. This main pump ensures the in-to-out and out-to-in
movements of the liquor that happens during the dyeing cycle

12.9 DYEING OF DIFFERENT FABRICS IN UTM AND JSML


12.9.1 COTTON , VISCOSE, LINEN

SCOURING-
The outermost cuticle layer of cotton fibre is made up of oils, fats, and waxes.
Because they hinder water, chemicals, and dyes from easily entering the fibre,
they must be removed to make it absorbent. Scouring is used to eliminate all of
these contaminants.

Chart 12.2 Scouring process flow chart for cotton, viscose, linen

DYEING-
In UTM and JSML direct dyes are used. The direct dyes have a higher affinity
to the cellulose fibers, and the dyeing of the cellulose fibers should be carried
out in a neutral or weakly alkaline medium. These dyes are mostly sodium salts
of aromatic compounds. They are soluble in water and their solubility increases
with temperature

12.10 DRYING
It is a process where the yarns are put in a yarn dryer to remove the excess water. It is
essential to remove the excess water. About 40% of the remaining water is removed
by this process. If yarns are in hank form it takes 1.5 hours for drying, if in cheese
form it takes 2 hours for drying.
Drying can be applied to loose fibers, hanks, yarn packages and fabric.

• Loose fiber drying: The water content of the fiber is initially turned down by
either centrifugal extraction or by mangling before evaporative drying.

• Hanks drying: Evaporative dryers contain a number of heated chambers with


fan assisted air circulation, through which the hanks pass suspended on hangers
or poles or supported on a conveyer. The hank sizes employed in carpet yarn
processing require a slow passage through the dryer to ensure even final moisture
content, and a residence time of up to 4 hours is not uncommon. Air temperature
is maintained below 120°C to prevent yellowing.
• Yarn packages drying: The moisture of dyed packages is reduced at first by
centrifugal extraction. Specially designed centrifuges, compatible with the
design of the dyeing vessel and yarn carriers are engaged. Traditionally packages
were oven dried, very long residence times being required to ensure sufficient
drying of the yarn on the inside of the package. Two techniques are currently
used, rapid (forced) air drying and radio frequency drying, the latter sometimes
being combined with initial vacuum extraction.

• Fabric drying: The fabric transported within two blankets through a set of
drying modules. Internally each module the fabric is dried by means of a hot air
flow. This apparatus is normally used for merged finishing operations on woven
fabrics when, along with drying, a shrinking effect is also essential in order to
give the fabric a soft hand and good dimensional firmness

TYPES OF DRYING METHODS

1. HYDROEXTRACTOR
It is a machine that works on centrifugal force which creates a high gravitational force,
enhancing water extraction. The inner drum rotates at high speed, thus throwing out
the water contained in it. The use of hydro-extractor significantly reduces the energy
and time required to dry the yarns

2. RADIO FREQUENCY DRYING MACHINE


In radio frequency drying system alternating electric field between two electrodes is
created by RF generator. The material to be dried is put across between the electrodes,
where the alternating energy causes polar molecules in the water to continuously re-
orient them to face opposite poles - much the same way magnets move in an
alternating magnetic field. This movement causes the friction and due to this water in
the material to rapidly evaporate throughout the material.

What is Radio Frequency?


Using 3 phase industrial electrical supply, our RF generators employ resonating
circuits to produce electric fields oscillating at 27.12 Mhz. This frequency is part of
the ISM band reserved for the use of Industrial, Scientific and Medical devices. This
frequency band falls under the ‘Non- Ionizing’ radiation part of the electromagnetic
spectrum which does not cause any permanent molecular change in the product to
which it is exposed and does not change the DNA of any organic products.

How it Works?
Water molecules when exposed to Radio Frequency energy tend to get polarized.
These polarized molecules align themselves with the RF energy which is oscillating
between positive and negative once every 37 nano seconds. This rapid change in
orientation causes internal friction and heat between the molecules causing their
temperature to rise and eventually leads to vaporization

14.1 CONING-
The raw materials like spun polyester, polyester and viscous that come in the paper
cone are converted to cheese form, and package dyed. Then the dyed yarns are again
converted to cone according to the need. The natural yarns like cotton, silk which
come in hank form are directly sent for the dyeing in the hank dyeing machine. Then
they are converted to cone as per need.
Cones are generally used for warping.

14.2 WARPING
Warping is the process of combining yarns from different cones together to form a
sheet. The important point in the warping is to preserve the yarn elongation and
maintain it at uniform level. This is done to achieve a better performance during
weaving in terms of low-end breakage rate.

Fig. 14.2 Warping workspace

NIFT BHUBANESWAR Page- 90


UTM JSML 2022

14.2.1 OBJECTIVES OF WARPING

To arrange a convenient number of warp yarns of related length so that they


can be collect on a single warp beam as a continuous sheet of yarns which can
be used for sizing or next process. To remove yarn faults like hairiness, naps
and for foreign matters.

14.2.2 TYPES OF WARPING

1. Direct Warping or Beam warping:


When the yarns are drawn from the single packages on the creel directly onto
the beam then it is called direct warping. It is also called high speed warping
or beam warping. Direct warping is used to make smaller beams which are
combined later in slashing to produce the weaver’s beam. In this method of
warping, single color in warping is used generally. It is mainly used to prepare
the warp of single-ply yarn.

2. Sectional warping :
The type of warping followed in the industry was sectional warping. It is
basically done to produce fancy fabrics with multiple colors. In sectional
warping equal length of yarn is first wound in small sections or sheets on a
drum from the creel yarns. Then from the drum it is transferred to the beam.
By this process we directly get the weavers beam. This is a two stage
method.

14.2.3 FLOWCHART OF WARPING

Chart 14.1 Warping process flowchart

NIFT BHUBANESWAR Page- 91


UTM JSML 2022

14.2.4 WORKING PRINCIPLE OF SECTIONAL WARPING


• Sectional warping is used for short runs especially for fancy pattern fabrics.
• In this case sections of the warp which may contain up to 1000 ends are first
wound onto a drum tapered with a given cone angle.
• So cross wound sections are combined on the drum & thus each layer of warp
contains the same number of ends on the drum.
• Then the warp threads altogether are transferred onto a weaver's beam by
unwinding the drum.
• In this method the warp threads are not necessarily processed in sizing.

14.2.5 FEATURES OF SECTIONAL WARPING


• This is suitable for making checked, stripped or other fancy fabric.
• We directly obtain weaver’s beam from this process
• As sizing is not done, so multi-ply yarns or yarns which do not require sizing
are used
• Small amount of yarn is required to produce the weaver’s beam
• Sectional warping is used to produce a warp beam with a greater member if
ends
• The production is less in sectional warping
• he yarn tension is less uniform

14.3 COMPONENTS OF WARPING MACHINE:


• Creel: Creel is a stand for holding the supply packages in the form of wound
packages. It enables to hold the supply packages in proper position for warping. A
total of 840 single ended rectangular creels are used placed on both the sides; 420
each side. These creels are mounted with smaller yarn packages. It has a balloon
that controls the speed of the thread at which they are pulled. The ceramic used
prevents the cutting of thread.

Fig. 14.3 Creels

NIFT BHUBANESWAR Page- 92


UTM JSML 2022

• Function of components of creel: Cone or cheese spindle for high-speed


warping. Thread guide: To pass through the yarn in the required way; Tensioner: To
keep the yarn always in a uniform tension; Yarn cleaner: To remove various faults
of yarn like slubs, neps etc.; Breakage indicator: To indicate breakage in package;
Stop device: To stop the m/c when yarn will be broken.

Fig. 14.4 Control device

• Control Device: Similar to winding, warp yarns are threaded through tension
devices, stop motions, leasing rods and the reed. The stop motion electrically links
each warp end to the warper braking system; when a warp end breaks, the warper
stops. A light indicates the location of the broken end. The warping process is
generally irreversible, unwinding, of the beam would cause yarn entanglement.
The stop motion device which can be mechanical or electronic for quick response
is usually located near the creel.

• Leasing Rods: It is a system by which the position of the ends is maintained in


the warp sheet. Generally, it is done by grouping the ends in two groups (odd and
even). If odd ends are passing over the lease rods, then the even ends will pass
below the rod. The relative positions of the ends will reverse in case of second
lease rod.

• Reed: The reed is a comb-like structure consisting of regularly spaced wires.


These reeds are bind of binding wire (Mild Steel and Copper) with extra strength
adhesive. The reeds are used to separate the ends of yarns before it is winded on
the drum. The yarns are passed through the dents, which is space between the
reeds.

• Drum: Sections of the warp from the creel which may contain up to 1,000 ends
are first wound onto a drum tapered with a given cone angle. So cross wound
sections are combined on the drum, and thus each layer of warp contains the same
number of ends on the drum.

NIFT BHUBANESWAR Page- 93


UTM JSML 2022

Fig. 14.5 Warping drum

• Passage of Yarn: The yarn from Cone/Cheese placed on the creel passes
through the back reed. Reed maintains uniform spacing of the yarn throughout the
width of the warp. Then yarn passes over & under guide & drop rollers. The drop
rollers impart tension to the yarn passing under them & hold the yarn tight when
the machine is stopped.

• Then yarn goes through the reed. Each end of the warp passes separately inserted
in the warp at the completion of one section of warp & reed is lowered. The
purpose of the reed is to wind as well as unwind the warp without any
entanglements between threads to distribute evenly. The yarn then goes through a
stop motion device which stops the machine in the event of the end breakage in
supply. Yarn then passes through the V-reed which enables the width of the warp
through it to be adjusted according to sections.

• Beaming system: In the beaming process, all the sections are simultaneously
transferred to the warper’s beam. The drum is rotated by the tension of warp sheet
whereas positive drives are given to the warper’s beam. The speed of beaming
process in sectional warping is quite slow (around 300 m/min).

Fig. 14.6 Beaming process

14.4 IMPORTANT REQUIREMENTS OF WARPING:


• The tension of all wound ends must be uniform and possibly constant during all the
time of withdrawal from the supply package.
• Warping should not impair the physical and mechanical properties of yarn.
• The tension should be moderate to allow the yarn to complete retain its elastic
properties.
• The surface of warping package must be cylindrical.

15.1 WHAT IS WEAVING


Weaving refers to the formation of fabric by the interlacing of the weft and warp
yarns. This is usually accomplished with a hand- or power-operated loom. Here
power operated looms are used. Warp ends are placed longitudinally whereas wefts
are horizontally placed.

(A) (B)

Fig. 15.1 Weaving process

15.2 PREPARING LOOM FOR WEAVING


15.2.1 BEAMING
Beaming comprises winding the full width of the warp yarns in a single
winding operation on the weaving beam (i.e., the beam which is to be
placed on the loom). The warp yarns can be wound from a creel or a
warping beam.

15.2.2 KNOTTING
Knotting is tying two threads to each other or to tie thread to any other
object. The joint between one thread to another or object is called Knot.
Different types of knots:
• Dog knot- tying of dog’s knot is simple and quick but it is bulkier than
weavers.
• Fisherman's knot: -it is most popular, but it is not at all convenient to
lie by hand. They have a diameter 3-4 times that of parent’s yarn and
are popular for filament, cotton, woolen, worsted and blends.
▪ There are 3 verities of fisherman's knot i.e.
I. SS
II. SL
III. LL With S&L denoting the direction of 2 ends with
the component over knots
• Reef knot: - The reef knot can be considered an unsafe knot when
human life depends on it. If used to tie two ends of any rope or cord
together this knot will spill easily when any of the ends are tugged.

NIFT BHUBANESWAR Page- 97


UTM JSML 2022

• Weaver's knot: -
▪ The weavers knot has a number of variations which for ease of
classification are called weavers’ knot.
▪ The method of tying each knot is similar and they are usually
started with both strands to be joined held in the left hand. The
knot is then worked with the right hand to bring it into shape.
▪ It has very less slippage.
▪ Weaver's knot is specially used in cotton threads.
▪ Weavers’ knots are a vital part of the textile industry. Without
them all traditional woven materials would undone.

Factors affecting quality of a yarn knot-


1. Resistance to slippage: - most of the knot fail in downstream process is
due to slippage. Degree of slippage depends on fiber type blend,
composition, linear density.
2. Size of knot: - A bigger knot causes serious obstruction as it passes
through small path like healed eyes, reed dent and knitting needles etc. it
leads to uneven tension and results in breakage.
3. Knot tail ends: - the tail length should basically be judged from the
linear density and rigidity. For yarn of lower D and rigidity, the tail
length should be short and vice versa for greater LD and rigidity.

15.2.3 DRAWING IN-


Before the weaver’s beam is mounted on the loom, each end is threaded
through a heald eye and the reed; it also supports a drop wire. To pass the
warp threads through the hole of the drop wire is known as pinning. If a
single warp breaks drop wire will drop. As a result, Machine will stop
instantly to avoid end missing

(A) (B)
Fig. 15.3 Drawing in process

15.2.4 DENTING:
Denting means drawing the warp thread through the dent as required by
reed plan and this determines more accurately the width of the fabric and
the ends per cm.

Fig. 15.4 Denting process

15.2.5 DRAFTING:
Drafting is known as the selection of harnesses for individual warp threads
according to the design.

15.2.6 TYING IN:


Tying-in is used when a fabric is being mass produced. The tail end of the
warp from the exhausted weaver’s beam is tied to the beginning of the new
warp. Therefore, if every end on the new beam is tied to its corresponding
end on the old beam, the drawing-in process can be omitted.

15.3 TYPE OF WEAVING MACHINES USED IN JAIPURIA SILK


MILL:
15.3.1 DOBBY WEAVING
Dobby cloth is a type of woven fabric known for having small geometric
patterns. It is also known for being very textured. It is made on a special
machine known as a dobby loom. A dobby loom is a type of floor loom that
controls all the warp threads using a device called a dobby. Dobby fabrics
have a great variation and a large number of uses. It can be woven with fine
yarns to make dress shirts. Thicker or fluffier yarns can be also used for home
furnishing material such as curtains and sofas.
Jaipuria had very wide range of beautiful fabrics that were being made from
dobby loom. Fabrics were being made from silk, cotton, polyester and linen.
The weaves being used in designs were twill, plain, and satin (mostly). They
had a different section for dobby which was next to jacquard looms. One
worker was assigned for each of the machines to operate.

15.3.2 JACQUARD WEAVING


This mechanism is probably one of the most important weaving inventions as
Jacquard shedding made possible the automatic production of unlimited
varieties of pattern weaving. The term "Jacquard" is not specific or limited to
any particular loom, but rather refers to the added control mechanism that
automates the patterning.

The types of fabric produced in jacquard machine is :


• Velvet is a fabric produced by weaving weft and warp threads in the form of
loops, which are then cut to create the pile effect on the fabric face.
• Brocade is a heavy, Jacquard-type fabric with a raised pattern or floral
design.
• Damask fabric is a firm and glossy Jacquard-patterned fabric made of silk,
wool, linen, cotton, or synthetic fibers, with a pattern formed by weaving.
• It is characterized by the combination of satin and satin weave.
• Double cloth is a kind of woven fabric woven from two sets of warp threads
and two sets of weft threads

ELECTRONIC JACQUARD LOOMS


Bonas Machine Company Ltd. launched the first electronic Jacquard at
ITMA, Milan in 1983. Although the machines were initially small, modern
technology has allowed Jacquard machine capacity to increase significantly,
and single end warp control can extend to more than 10,000 warp ends. This
avoids the need for repeats and symmetrical designs and allows almost
infinite versatility. The computer-controlled machines significantly reduce the
down time associated with changing punched paper designs, thus allowing
smaller batch sizes. However, electronic Jacquards are costly and may not be
required in a factory weaving large batch sizes, and smaller designs.
JACQUARD MECHANISM
The mechanism consists of levers that connects the main shaft to the knife. It
is the connection that controls the up and own movement of the knives. The
knives in turn move up and down the hooks to form shed according to
weaving design.
GENERAL STRUCTURE OF JACQUARD MACHINE
Jacquard system are placed on top of the weaving machine, symmetrically at
the middle of the machine on the mounting frame. The Jacquard machine is
provided with energy by the electricity power supply unit.
The Structural elements of jacquard machine are:
1. Jacquard machine
2. Power supply unit
3. Mounting frame
4. Loom
5. Jacquard computer
6. Jacquard supporting structure
The Component elements are:
1. Jacquard harness: The jacquard harness is the system of cords, healds and
lingoes that transmit the movement of the hooks to the individual warp
threads.
2. Harness system: A jacquard harness is the interface between jacquard
machine and warp yarns. It can consist up to 2000 to 38000 cords over a
weaving width of 1-6 mtrs. A single harness cord maybe attached to a
single hook tie for width wise repeated weaves for weaving the same
design over the width of the fabric.
3. Harness cords: Harness cords are attached to the heald, each with an eye
through which a warp yarn is threaded. Healds are selected according to
the warp setting and the yarn count of the warp yarn.
4. Comber Board: It is a board of hardwood or more usually sections of
hardwood assembled in frame. Each section of comber board has drill in
it. the number and order of holes are similar to that of the jacquard head.
5. Knife/ Cutting Blade: Knifes are present at the edge of the machine to cut
out the extra fabric at the selvedge.

JACQUARD HARNESS SYSTEM:


Jacquard system can be set as such to weave fabric with 2 repeat ore 4 repeats
of the design. The machine which was meant for the weaving of fabric with 2
design repeats throughout the width of the fabric has 6144 hooks. The machine
set up 4-repeat design pattern on the fabric has 2688 hooks.
• 2-design repeats= 6144 hooks
• 4 design repeats= 2688 hooks

Setting of a jacquard loom having 4-design repeat:


• 1-16 hooks= empty for balancing
• 17-2656 hooks= design pattern
• 2657-2688= selvedge/ leno weave
A jacquard system, once set cannot be changed later. The hooks from 1-16 are
empty for balancing of the harness. The design pattern starts from the 17th
hook and continues up to 2656 hooks with repeats splitting up at point O,
which is the point of intersection. It constitutes of 4-design repeats divided
through 2640 hooks. The hooks from 2657- 2688 are for selvedge. Leno weave
is used for the weaving of selvedge.
Leno weave: In leno weaving, the warp yarns are twisted around one another,
locking the filling yarns in place. Leno weave is also called Gauze weave or
Cross weave. The leno weave is used where relatively a low number of yarns
are involved. This is a construction of woven fabrics in which the resulting
fabric is very sheer, yet durable.
Setting of a jacquard loom having 2-design repeat:
• 1-176= Empty hooks
• 177-432= 256 hooks which are controlled by 5 harnesses
• 433-5712= 5280 hooks for the purpose of design repeat
• 5713-5968= last 256 hooks for balancing and for selvedge, also.
• 5969-6144-= empty hooks.
Total no. of hooks required for a 2-design repeat jacquard fabric= 256 + (5280
* 2) + 256 = 11072 hooks.
Jacquard system has chips. Each chip controls 128 hooks which are formatted
with the help of computer software.

15.3.3 VELVET WEAVING


Velvet has always been a luxury fabric. Difficult to produce, woven of lustrous
silk, and with a rich depth of color and texture from the cut or uncut woven
pile.

Velvet is woven on a special loom that weaves two thicknesses of the material
at the same time. Velvet pile is created by warp or vertical yarns and velveteen
pile is created by weft or fill yarns. Velvet is difficult to clean because of its
pile, but modern dry-cleaning methods make cleaning more feasible.

(A) (B)
Fig. 15.8 Velvet weaving process

The Base Fabric:


Jacquard machine is used for the ground weaves to enlighten the ground
structure of the fabric with Jacquard patterns. The use of a Jacquard allows for
elaborate designs to be woven into the ground fabric, independent of the pile
design. The number of hooks will be defined by the number of warp ends used
and the number of repeats to be woven over the fabric width.

Beam let-off motion:


Depending on the construction of the ground weave, the number of warp ends
used and the warp tension needed, the machine can be equipped with a single
beam let-off motion. The let-off rate is electronically controlled. The tension is
obtained by a lever system with tensioning weights. The number of ends on the
warp beam will be defined by the type of weave construction and the way the
pile needs to be integrated into the fabric. One can e.g., choose to weave with
only two ground warp ends per pile, or with 3,4 or even up to six ground warp
ends per pile. The higher the number of warp ends per pile, the higher the
definition of the pattern in the ground fabric will be. Also, the way of fixation
of the pile will be better.

In Jaipuria industry, machines used for velvet weave is Metex Wire-Flex 14.
The machine used for velvet is Wireflex and Metex Jacquard Loom. The
WIREFLEX machine is a special type of weaving machine used for the
production of pile fabrics. The pile is obtained by inserting steel rods or wires
in the top shed. Pile yarns supplied from a creel form loops above the steel
wires. During extraction of the wires the pile can be cut or uncut (loops) or a
combination of both. Material used for ground fabric: cotton, polyester,
acrylics, wool, silk, blends, technical fibers. Material used for pile: cotton,
linen, wool, acrylics, viscose, silk, blends, technical fibers.

PROCESS:
Generally, the ratio of base yarn to the pile yarn is 1:3, as the pile yarn is
consumed more in this process.
1. PIRN WINDING: The name of the pirn winding machine is SSM Reeling
machine. The consumption of pile yarns during the weaving is individual for
each pile end in relation to its use in the chosen design, so it is impossible to
put the pile warp on a warp beam. Hence large yarn packages are reeled into
smaller pirns. 1 Cheese= 35 metres = 920 lb, which is reeled into small cones.

2. THE PILE CREEL: Each pile end is fed from an individual yarn package.
The pirn winded yarns are put on a vertical creel. In order to build up a tension
on the pile yarn and also to compensate for the yarn movement during the
shedding special compensator weights are used. The weights are hung over the
pile ends close to the yarn package. These smaller packages are in the set of
16*20 (creels). There are total of 12 creels used for the pile formation. This
makes it a total of 3800 bobbins for pile formation.

3. THE WEFT INSERTION: The weft yarn is inserted from the left-hand side
of the machine where a carrier rapier head takes the weft yarns by the tip
towards the middle of the weaving machine. At that point, the weft end is
transferred to the puller rapier head that pulls the weft through to the right-
hand side where the puller rapier is opened in order to release the weft. The
rapier heads are fixed to a set of flexible rapiers. Weft insertion speed apart
from the wire insertion – can go up to 200 Rpm. The total weaving speed will
be lower as the wire motion reduces the speed considerably. Depending on the
type of yarns used, on the density to be woven and on the types of wires used
the industrial weaving speed will be situated between 110 and 160 Rpm on a
150 cm wide machine and in between 75 and 90 Rpm on a 300 cm machine.

4. THE PILE WIRE Pile wires are specially made very fine steel rods rolled in
several passages into the final dimension as requested for the specific pile
height. When such a wire is extracted from the fabric it leaves loops in the
fabric. The wire has a circular section in diameters from 0.7 to 2.6 mm. The
surface of the steel wires is hardened and polished in order to reduce the
friction between the wire and the pile yarns. It is even possible to weave with
mixed sets of wires. With this combination one can obtain both loop pile and
cut pile in the same fabric.
• Cut pile – In cut pile a blade attached to the wire is passed to cut the
desired loops.
• Loop pile – Some piles are left in place for design purpose. The loops
can help durability or absorbency.

NIFT BHUBANESWAR Page- 107


UTM JSML 2022

4. WIRE INSERTION MOTION :The wires are inserted in sequence, this


means that for each wire that has been inserted, another wire is extracted. In
order to provide a perfect guiding of each wire during the insertion, each
wire is pulled out of the fabric into a specially shaped steel guide. During the
extraction sequence this guide is located in the front position. For the
insertion sequence the guide is moved to the back position by means of a
servo motor. The acceleration and deceleration of the movement is perfectly
under control. Also, insertion motion of the Wireflex machine is completely
driven by means of servo motors.

5. BASE FABRIC: Jacquard machine is used for the ground weaves to


enlighten the ground structure of the fabric with Jacquard patterns. The use
of a Jacquard allows for elaborate designs to be woven into the ground
fabric, independent of the pile design. The number of hooks will be defined
by the number of warp ends used and the number of repeats to be woven
over the fabric width.

6. BEAM LET OFF MOTION: Depending on the construction of the ground


weave, the number of warp ends used and the warp tension needed, the
machine can be equipped with a single beam let off motion. The let-off rate
is electronically controlled. The tension is obtained by a lever system with
102 tensioning weights. The number of ends on the warp beam will be
defined by the type of weave construction and the way the pile needs to be
integrated into the fabric. One can e.g. choose to weave with only two
ground warp ends per pile, or with 3,4 or even up to six ground warp ends
per pile. The higher the number of warp ends per pile, the higher the
definition of the pattern in the ground fabric will be. Also, the way of
fixation of the pile will be better.

16.1 INTRODUCTION
Embroidery is the craft of decorating fabric or other materials using a needle to apply
thread or yarn. Embroidery is done using both hand and machine. Machine
embroidery is preferred during bulk production. Contemporary embroidery is stitched
with computerized embroidery machine using patterns digitized with embroidery
software. It is most typically done with rayon thread

16.2 COMPUTERIZED EMBROIDERY MACHINE


Embroidery is a craft by using a needle, thread or yarn is sewn on to a base material
or fabric to create a pattern. This is done by computer operated machine; it involves
the use of special threads available in many colors that help to produce various
beautiful patterns.

There are two types of Computer embroidery machine as


• Single head needle machine
• Multi Head needle Machine

With the development of the industrial revolution, Machine embroidery and its mass
production are developing gradually. The earliest machine embroidery used a
combination of machine looms and teams of women embroidering the textiles by
hand. There are various types of machine embroidery. Free-motion sewing machine
embroidery uses a basic zigzag sewing machine. Designs are completed by hand.

16.3 WORKFLOW OF THE DESIGN AND MANUFACTURE


First, design and edit a digitized embroidery pattern file that works with the brand of
machine. Then load the right format file into the embroidery machine and it will file
in the appropriate hoop.

The mechanical aspects of computer embroidery machine can be divided into frame,
embroidery, color changing, frame moving, the hook, the cutting, and the knot and so
on. Among them, the embroidery and the frame moving are the most essential, which
independently and harmoniously completed the embroidery. In order to accomplish a
beauteous embroidery work, needle bar drives the needle and thread to move, the
frame is reciprocating in the plane X and Y Direction

FEATURES
• Precision and usability, fully incorporating Tajima's embroidery technologies
• High-precision and Stable Finish
• Image High-precision and Stable Finish Due to the structure supporting the frame
inthe back(A) on the right side(B), frame movement is stable and provides high-
precision hole making, sewing and embroidery. The machine incorporates many of
our main functions achieved through our many years of experience for color
change, sewing finish and thread trimming
• Wide work area
• For the electric pattern sewing machine head, the "Bridge Type" is adopted instead
of the space-constraining "Arm Type," so that a wider work area(C) can be
achieved as compared to a common sewing machine.
• It allows a wider application of embroidery to such larger items like car seats and
furniture
• Your creativity instantly reproduced in design data
• Tajima's exclusive digitizing software "DG-S" helps to create designs without
restricting the designers' creativity. The created designs can be easily edited,

16.8 RECTIFICATION PROCESS OF EMBROIDERY DEFECTS


After quality checking of embroidery process, which was done visually on a slanted
table, and stickers were pasted on the defective area; the faulty pieces were then sent
for rectification of those defects. A total of 9 machines were set up in line to rectify
those embroidery defects manually with the help of sewing machine. Inspection is
essentially done 2-3 times as machines are handled by workers and there is a chance
of human error. It is generally a person’s mistake rather than on the failure of a
machine

Following are the main issues which should be sorted and rectified during the
finishing process:
• Thread tails Trim off the thread remains as near to the article as possible and take
care not to cut any locked knots (if made).
• Missing stitches When some stitches are skipped and are found missing, they
should be modified. The simplest way for this is to thread a hand-sewing needle
with a double strand of embroidery thread matching the base fabric and do a hand
satin stitch to fill in the areas, in which the stitches are missing.
• Stray threads They are the threads that often get trapped during the processing of
the stitches on the product or garments. Do not cut the locked knots; these threads
should betrimmed as closely to the stitches as possible.
• Thread loops If one observes thread loops in the same direction as of the stitches,
they should note trimmed. Instead, the embroiderer can use fingernails to pull the
loops to the wrong side or backside of the garment. However, if thread loops are in
an opposite direction of the stitches, it is safe to trim them. They should be
trimmed as closely To the stitches as possible.
• Stains on embroidered product While doing embroidery, the fabric might acquire
some stains like oil, dust, etc. There are many ways of removing stains depending
on the type of fabric and type of stains. Most of the stains can be removed with a
drop of dish soap and water. If this does not work, once the product is dry, you can
spray the area with acetone or bleaching agent in case of white fabrics depending
upon the type of stains.
• Damaged embroidered product The damage caused to the product while doing
embroidery or hooping should be removed properly. One must not finalize and
deliver the product to the client

SECTION 17:
PRINTING

NIFT BHUBANESWAR Page- 118


UTM JSML 2022

17.1 TEXTILE PRINTING


Textile printing is the process of applying colour to fabric in definite patterns or
designs. Improperly printed fabrics the colour is bonded with the fibre, so as to resist
washing and friction. Textile printing is related to dyeing but, whereas in dyeing
proper the whole fabric is uniformly covered with one colour, in printing one or more
colours are applied to it in certain parts only, andin sharply defined patterns. In
printing, wooden blocks, stencils, engraved plates, rollers, or silkscreens can be used
to place colours on the fabric. Colourants used in printing contain dyes thickened to
prevent the colour from spreading by capillary attraction beyond the limits of the
pattern or design.

17.2 DIGITAL PRINTING


In UTM & JSML, Digital textile printing is followed. Digital textile printing: It is the
process of adding colorful designs to many kinds of fabric by using digital inkjet
printing technology. In digital textile printing, once the design is created, it can be
directly printed on the fabric from the computer. This process does not require
another step. To print the designs on the fabric digitally, a dye-sublimation printer is
used, which carries out the printing process by using heat to transfer design onto the
fabric.

17.3 PRE-TREATMENT
In digital printing, it is necessary to pre-treat the fabric. This will ensure that the
fabric holds the ink well, and a variety of colors can be attained through the pre-
treatment process. Cotton, viscose rayon and lyocell fabrics are normally jet printed
with reactive dyes by the two-phase method, i.e., the fabric is pre-treated with
thickener and alkali, while the ink contains the dye. The pre-treatment liquor is
normally applied with the aid of a pad mangle, though it could be screen printed. In
either case the fabric must be dried to about 5±7%moisture content before printing.

17.4 REASONS FOR PRE-TREATMENT


• The main reasons for separating the dye ink from thickeners and other chemicals
and applying them separately to the fabric are as follows.
• All-in' inks are less stable and have lower storage stability, e.g., reactive dyes are
more likely to hydrolyse when alkali is present in the ink.
• Chemicals in the ink cause corrosion of jet nozzles; the deleterious effect of
sodium chloride on steel surfaces is well known, for instance; inks for use in
`charged drop 'continuous printers should have low electrical conductivity.

NIFT BHUBANESWAR Page- 119


UTM JSML 2022

• Thickeners in the ink often do not have the desired rheological properties.
• Some chemicals can be utilized in pre-treated fabric but would cause stability
problems in the ink; e.g., sodium carbonate as alkali for reactive dye fixation
inacceptable on the fabric but not in the ink.
• The presence of large amounts of salts in aqueous inks reduces the solubility of the
dyes; concentrated inks are required in jet printing due to the small droplet size.
• The advantage of applying thickeners and chemicals separately from the dyes is that
it allows the wettability and penetration properties of the fabric to be adjust

17.5 PRINTING PROCESS


• Padding – Pre-treatment or padding is done by applying a chemical coating to the
fabric. It helps coating chemical to hold and penetrate the reactive dyes more
efficiently.
• The design is uploaded into the software and settings are changed according to the
fabric.
• Printing- the fabric is placed flat on a belt with a sticky coating, which helps to
maintain the fabric and keep it in place. Then the fabric is fed to the printer and it
gets printed.
• Fabric gets dried by the heater.
• Each fabric requires a different length and quantity of steam depending upon the
type and length. So, post treatment is done when the fabric goes through steaming,
washing, drying and ironing.

17.6 POST PROCESSESS


Post-processes include steaming, washing, and drying. Steaming is used for fixing the
dye on the printed fabric. The temperature, pressure, and time should be determined
for optimum results. When the pre-treated fabric has been dried and then jet printed
there is usually little need to provide a drying station to dry the print, as the printing
process is so slow. By the time the fabric is batched on a roll it has dried by exposure
to the warm atmosphere in the room. However, in most instances, fixation and
washing will be necessary. This not only ensures that the full fastness properties of
the dyes are realized but also brightens and alters the colors significantly In UTM
&JSML, the printing is done only on natural fabrics I.e., organza, cotton ,nylon ,silk
,satin ,Viscose). Here printing is not done on synthetic or polyesters.

17.10 BOTTLENECKS IN THE PROCESS OF PRINTING


• Overheating of the machine is common in the printing department. So, air
conditioners have to be switched on at all times the machine is working to reduce
the risk of machine damage.
• Image distortion may occur due to contact of print head with fabric.
• Misprints.
• Dye stains on fabric.
• Colour repetition The chance of defects is low because the machine stops and
shows a caution symbol whenever a defect is about to occur, or the ink is about to
finish

18.1 QUALITY CONTROL

Responsibilities of the quality control department may vary organization to


organization, but main activities almost remain the same.
Activities of the Quality control department are as follows:
• Setting up Quality Standards
• Establishing Quality SOP
• Quality Assurance
• Quality Control activities at the Pre-production stage
• Auditing inward fabric and trims and ensuring only quality goods are accepted.
• Involvement in product development and sampling stage and take care of quality
aspects of samples.
• Ensure that no faulty fabric is sent for cutting. If a minor fault is present in the
fabric, defects should be marked on the fabric and the same thing must be
communicated to the cutting department.
• Preparing the audit report of the fabric and trims quality.
• Conducting pre-production meeting before production start.

The central laboratory is the part of quality control/quality assurance functions in a


textile unit. The testing laboratory evaluates all in coming and end products of each
section in grey combing, dyeing, recombing, spinning, weaving and finishing.

• The department is used for testing fibres, yarns and fabrics. After the material is
received, the sample from the order is sent for quality assurance or testing.
• All these activities are very essential to get best level of quality appropriate
production efficiencies and minimum possible costs, in the final cloth ready for
packing.

Jaipuria mainly produce home furnishing fabrics. So, the quality inspection is
usually done after weaving process, dyeing(shade variation), printing and
embroidery. Customer usually demands report about abrasion/pilling. In this case
the industry send the products to testing lab they have alliance with(done outside).
And then they send the report of the same to buyers.
The buyers usually don’t need any quality system /report for drapery fabrics, when
they go for heavy upholstery fabrics they will certainly care about abrasion ,the
standard should be acceptable above 30000 rubs. Except that weaving defects is
taken care of manually by the workers. Same followed for embroidery mentioned
in embroidery section

19.1 PACKAGING AND SHIPMENT


Fabric packaging is the process of wrapping, compressing, filling or creating of
goods for the purpose of protection and their appropriate handling. This is the final
process in the production of fabric, which prepares the finished merchandise for
delivery to the customer. It is an important part of the fabric manufacturing process.
Fabric packaging is also use to get lot of attention from the customer.
The production in UTM-JSML operates mainly for two segments of collection: (1)
To export to USA and European markets
(2) For the inhouse design collection and sampling
The orders that come for export to foreign markets have to be approved by the
Central Silk Board of Karnataka or the FKCCI(Federation of Karnataka Chambers
of Commerce and Industry).

19.1.1 OBJECTIVES OF PACKAGING


Two basic objectives of packaging are-
• preventing any damage to the product during transportation
• enhancing the features of the product to the consumer for a sale

19.1.2 WAYS OF PACKING: -


• Sack bags: When the product has to be delivered to the local buyer, it is
wrapped in sack bags.
• Transportation plastic covers: Fabrics are rolled in tubes, wrapped in
plastic covers and taped. The rolls are then transferred into cartons and
sent for transportation.
• Cardboard boxes: A carton package made of quite strong corrugated
material is normally preferred while transporting the boxes or hanging
garments in bulk form.

19.1.3 COST OF BOXES:


• Carton for velvet: it is made of a thicker and persistent cardboard, which
costs around Rs. 200-250.
• Carton for other fabric: Made of regular cartons which cost around Rs.

19.2 ACTIVITIES
• Receive the fabrics from finishing as per the following criteria:
▪ Market wise - Exclusive, Export, Institutional, RAL, RMG, Civil and
Stock lot.
▪ Quality wise
▪ Shade wise
• Ensure that fabric must have card with relevant piece details (quality, piece
number, shade number, delivery period, number of pieces).
• Stamping along with piece ticket is done and then sent for finish checking.
• On the finish checkpoint, shade, finish, design of fabric is critically checked under
standard finishing norms.
• Finishing and shades are checked with reference to standard hangers and then the
fabric is released on roll fold machine for unit cutting.
• During this operation, the first piece of each and every new exclusive quality/shade
is taken on first piece inspection table for testing of fabric norms.
• On roll fold machines, units are wrapped by cutter as well as tags and stickers are
put on grey board.
• Units are binded with viscose tape and sealed in low density polythene.
• While processing binding and sealing operation, fabric verification and bar code
sticking is finally completed.
• All the sealed material segregated according to quality and market is delivered.

19.3 SHIPMENT
Product Before shipping products, a shipper must choose which products they
require and place the order with a manufacturer. It is important to have well-
defined contracts and incoterms with the manufacturer. When placing an order,
make a note of the shipment’s details such as size, weight, number of pallets, etc.,
as well whether or not the goods require a certificate of origin. This information
will be necessary later. The manufacturer will provide a ship date stating when
the products will be ready for pick up by a forwarder, and the shipper should ask
the manufacturer to create a Packing List and a Commercial Invoice for the
order.

1. Request quotes- Clarify details of shipment, including the ship date, detailed
origin and destination addresses, and the dimensions of your freight.
Shipping quote: It represents the cost of shipping that product. This varies based
on (obviously) the weight plus the user's choice of shipping options such as
Standard Post, or FedEx or Overnight Delivery etc. With all the quotes that
you've gathered, you can pick the one that best fit your target rate or preferred
transit time.

2. Prepare necessary documents for the shipping process: generate invoice.


Invoice can either be FOB or CIF. FOB:
The term FOB stands "Free-on-Board Shipping Point." The term means that the
buyer takes delivery of goods being shipped to it by a supplier once the goods
leave the supplier's shipping dock. Since the buyer takes ownership at the point
of departure from the supplier's shipping dock, the supplier should record a sale
at that point.
Cost, Insurance, and Freight (CIF) is an expense paid by a seller to cover the
costs, insurance, and freight against the possibility of loss or damage to a buyer's
order while it is in transit to an export port named in the sales contract. Until the
loading of the goods onto a transport ship is complete, the seller bears the costs
of any loss or damage to the product. Once the freight loads, the buyer becomes
responsible for all other costs.

3. Confirm the shipment details on Fleet

4. Book your freight on Fleet

5. Track and manage your shipment online, 24/7;


Once you receive a booking confirmation email from Fleet, you can start
tracking your shipment online and real time. Other shipment management
features are also available on the platform: invoice, document and contact
organization. 6. Shipment passes through customs inspection at port of entry

20.1 INTRODUCTION
Finished goods warehouse of a garments industry is the goods storage area where
keep finished garments in carton as per buyer required packing list.

The warehouse used at UTM JSML is a well-maintained unit with storing capacity
oflakh meters of fabric including loose and packed stock. After folding and
temporary packaging is done, the stock is transferred to the warehouse. They have a
special software designed for Tracing the Movement of goods and supplies.

The tags are used to trace the stocks available in the warehouse. Here they are using
three different tags though they have the same unique number and ID.The three tags
they use at different steps are:
• For internal use (from supplier)
• For company use
• For export

The tag contains following information:


• Piece Sl no.
• No. of pieces
• Batch no
• Bale/box no.
• Order no.
• Article/color no.
• Care instructions
• Total meters

Once an order is placed sales order and outbound delivery order are generated. The
tags of the required products are scanned. The package planning is done as required
by the customer. For e.g., the customer may ask for a certain quantity in one
package due to labour laws followed in the country of delivery. The products are
packed accordingly and then dispatched for delivery, once billing is done.

Here in UTM & JSML there are 2 go downs one is for Vaya products that are
produced in bulk. Another one is for the export products.

20.2 WHAT HAPPENS TO THE REJECTED PIECES?


The rejected pieces/surplus goods are sold to companies may be from America at
low prices I.e., at production cost as no other customer will accept the defected
pieces. That fabrics costing 8-10 dollars are sold at 4-5 dollars.

21.2 AGRO WASTE REUSE


The company re-used government approved agro waste from ground nut husk
and coffee husk in order to apply the waste and reuse it in the heating system for
the dyeing and drying department at JSML.
The agro wastes collected from local and nearby farmers are turned into wood
Briquette. Wood briquettes are made of dry, untreated wood chips (e.g., wood
shavings). They are pressed with high pressure without any binder. By compact
the wood with this high pressure, it turns into a briquettes. Wood Briquettes are
quality constituted wood briquettes that provides for excellent burning efficiency
and do not pollute the atmosphere as it does not produce.

CONCLUSION & LEARNING OUTCOME


In a nutshell, interning at Universal textile mills - Jaipuria Silks, gave us the
knowledge of how a textile industry works. In this two weeks, we have been able to
make practical sense of our theoretical knowledge. UTM-JSML gave us the
opportunity to observe and experience the process flow of how a yarn is converted to
a fabric. We also got a chance to understand the management process from production
planning to merchandising. Interacting with different managers and supervisors gave
us an insight of how tedious managing each process can get.

We have learnt how proper planning can lead to better productivity and efficiency.
Even after not having their own finishing unit, UTM-JSML still manage to get the
task done on time, which shows how good bonding between industries is an important
factor.

The company allowed us to explore and ideate new ideas. They were open to
suggestions for continuous improvement and initiate the implementation.
To conclude, this internship has helped us in many ways and taught us how to be
more professional.
