Fiber Fly Generation of Soybean Yarns during Weaving

Abstract

Mehmet E Yuksekkaya

At textile factories, fiber fly generation is still a major problem almost at every stage of productions. Therefore, it is a crucial factor to perform more studies of the fiber fly generation in respects to fiber types and production methods. Current study examines the fiber fly generation of soybean yarns during the weaving operation. Among all of fiber properties, the fiber mean length and fiber fineness have the greatest effects on the amount of the fiber fly generated during the processes. Yarn type and yarn twist level have also a significant effect on the fiber fly generations during the weaving.
