Warping is the process Where ends form a numbers of cons cheeses are collected to form a sheet of yarn comprising of pre-deter mind numbers , length, tension and with which goes to form the weavers beam. Yarn in the sheet will be of some tension, uniform spacing and parallel to each other and will be wound on to a beam called warpers beam.

Prerequisites for warping process:
The following precautions should be taken during warping process:
To form a precaution sheet of yarn specified length and width the individual end of the sheet should be spaced uniformly across in almost uniform tension.
All the ends in the sheet should be wound all most uniform tensions.
Density of the beam should be controlled not by in creasing yarn tension but by adjusting the pressure roll on the beam.
The yarn sheet of beam should not have fault such as missing ends, slack ends, fluffier wild yarn, high variation in tension between ends, which will causes end breaks or defects at subsequent process.

Check list before operation following points prior to:
Operator must check quality in teams of count, material, and color, mo mixing in allowed
Count the cone/chesses, weight/length variation and finally set the warping length for minimizing wastage and maximum warping length
Check the supply pressure, beaming pressure, press roll pressure carrier roll & hydraulic pressure
Check the number of ends in the creel
Check the setting of warp length and weft length correction factor.
Check the warping beam & yarn available.
Working Procedure:
Based on the production programs operator collects greige yarn from the store as per requirement count, name of yarn manufacturer, yarn lot & quality
The machine operator, creel men and helpers open/break the yarn cartons/bags and place the cones/chesses on the creel as per program and draw the head end of each cone/chesses through the hole of vertical dise, tension dise, yarn guide, stop motion device and then through expanded, comb of beaming unit.
The creel and Direct Warping Machine setting are done according to the requirement as per operating instruction.
When the reed count is not changed on a specific loom, the ends of the fresh beam are tied with of the exiting one with the help of TODO – knotting machine. The selector no. is set according to the count of warp in the beams. If the counts of warp in the exiting beam and that of the fresh beam are different .The m/c can work at a speed of 200-500 knots /min and it is fisherman knot .Two person set the beam in position while one runs the TODO machine. One knotting machine is sufficient to serve all the 95 looms.

Preamle
There are two methods which are followed to prepared the beam for mounting on the loom.
These are:
Warping trying or knotting
Drawing in
Warping trying or knotting
The method has some limitation to used where an exactly same article or quality of fabric is to be made that is already running on the loom before knotting the following points should be consider
The total number of warp ends should be same as that of already running into the loom.
The count of warp yarn and weave design be same.
Drawing in
This method of mounting weavers beam on the loom is adopted when the design and quality differs from the existing one. The yarn as it comes to drawer hook is then drawn through dropper, then through the eye of heald wire. All the warp yarn thus drawn one by one finally pass through the split of the dent of reed is called denting
Equipment Used
For Tying a sized and leased beam with the already running beam in the loom. Following typing of machines are used: Knotex warp typing machine for mono color fabric.
Key Accessories:
Key accessories used for drawing are : Drawer’s hook, Reed knife
Key accessories used for warp tying are: Brush, Leasing band, Stand frame
Safety:
In order to ensure floor and personal safety are instructed to following the safety guideline given bellow:
Smokey is strictly prohibited in the department
Operators are instructed not to touch any rotating or operating parts until the machine comes to complete
Put a sign on the machine when knotting work are progress
Cheek before Production:
Check the correctness of the knots
Check the whether any are crossing
Check whether any empty dropper is left or not
Warp tying process:
The operation procedure for warp tying is enumerated under the following points
The beam is loaded on to a specific loom and mounted on beam bracket. The tying frame is set in the roper position.
The ends of the old beam and the ends of the new beam are accurately brushed and gripped by the frame so that older and new ends makes a upper and lower set of yarn placed in proper tension.
Then warp tying head is mounted over the tying frame
Then machine is started, operator will check the correctness of the knot and start again by switch
Thus knotting will be completed up to the end of set tying upper set of older yarn with lower set of new warp
Thus knotting is completed tying head and frame are removed, the old pieces of knotted yarn is pulled through the frame and thus new warp set is allowed to pass and made reedy for run.

Drawing in process:
The operation procedure for drawing in is enumerated under the following points
Generally for new quality drawing n done on the machine
When article is completed the machine is ready for drawing in
As per quality drawing in charge make a program for drawing in
After drawing in / denting is complete then all frame reed are set in the machine
Then new yarn from the beam pulled and set in the loom with dropper, healds properly positioned and new yarn are tied with the old piece of cloth wrapped around the pressure roller with a small number of kno

Process Definition:
Interlacement of two or more yarns/threads warp and weft yarns in a definite order to form a fabric which is suitable for dress material, domestic and industrial purpose is called weaving. The machine used for this purpose is called weaving machine or loom.
Equipment:
The knotting machine used to the purpose of weaving can be categories are as follows:
The key accessories used for weaving are as follows:
Weavers hook
Weaver’s cutter
Pick counting glass
Measuring tap
Check before production:
Operator must be checking the following points prior to operation:
Check safety switch
Check drawing, denting, fabric width, weft density and other fabric defect
Check yarn count and manufacturer
Operation Procedure:
After article is done a new weaver’s beam set on the machine and drawing or tying is done. It is the duty of the loom technician to check and set all necessary setting, gauging and operating values through mechanical means after setting is done. He hands over the knotting machine to beam pieces/ beam fitter

In a Industries opening of the cotton bales having weight around 160kg is done with the help of unifloc machine. This unifloc machine consist of a beater which has an excellent opening system after opening at this machine the tufts of cotton are pushed into pipes and are made available for another processes with the help of blower.
MACHINE SPECIFICATION:-
No. of machine = 2 Make = RIETER Model = A – 1/2 Transverse speed = 9.5 mpm Production = 900 – 1000kg/hr.
DUST GAUGE:-
The open tufts of cotton are feed to the dust gauge after opening through unifloc machine with the help of suction. In this section the large dust and small particle are removed from the tufts of cotton.
METAL DETECTOR:-
At this stage any foreign like metals are detected and get separated with the help of the suction from the tufts of cotton. Objective:- Cotton fibres arrives in the mill in hard presses bales. So the objective of the blow room is to properly open this hard presses bale of cotton into small tufts. Opening of fibres in the blow room involves not only breaking the stock into small tufts but also to removes the impurities like dust, seed, metal pieces, pouches, stones etc. Opening of fibres in the blow room is essential to properly carry out the subsequent process of carding, drafting, roving and spinning.

HUMIDIFICATION SYSTEM:
The humidification system plant mainly comprises of the rotary filter, dampers and humidifier. The micro dust is being transferred to the rotary filter (consisting of a large filtering cylinder) where the micro-dust is retained and dust free air is sucked in with the help of travelling nozzles. The purified air obtained is now transported via a suction fan to the humidifier and dampers. The function of damper is to control the flow of air to the department and also to sense the required relative humidity of the air. In case of low humidity the air is transported to the humidifier where the dry air gets humid and is transferred to the department. Almost all the department in Auto Industry Ltd. employ the system of humidification and sucked in waste is being re-circulated along with proper filtration.
