manufacturing unit having its registered office at “Chhabra
Mansion” Opp. Waterworks, Pur raod, Bhilwara and
Manufacturing unit at Biliyan Kalan, Chittorgarh road,
Bhilwara.

The company was incorporated on 3rd august, 1993

and commenced commercial production in the month of
January, 1998.

Further, the company had also established two

 FUTURE PROSPECTUS OF THE COMPANY :-

Looking to the demand of company’s products in the
market, the company has to arrange its production
arrangement through outside various job parties in addition to
its own production capacity to meet out the demand of its
customers. Hence, the company is planning to import and
install more efficient and upgraded weaving machineries and
management is exploring better and high speed looms in the
international market and likely to be import in this current

Various Mechanisms
 Page 30

 SHEDDING

In this machine shedding is done by STAUBLI dobby.

Staubli dobby is one sided dobby provided on one side of

the loom, driven by the cross shaft by chain drive. Dobby may
be turned at the time of pick finding.

 WEFT INSERTION SYSTEM

 The key to the machine is the gripper projectile. In the
picking position it takes over the thread drawn from the
supply package. After picking, it carries the thread into the
shed and is braked upon entering the receiving unit.

 The thread is now taken over by the projectile feeder, held

by the selvedge grippers, cut by the scissors, released
from the projectile and beaten up to the cloth.

 The tucking needles then tuck in the thread ends, forming

firm tucked-in selvedges.

 Finally, the projectiles is ejected from the receiving unit and

taken back to the picking position by conveyer.

 The projectiles are accelerated by a torsion bar. This is

tensioned, storing the energy needed for a flight through
the shed. Following the release of a lock, it accelerates the
projectile smoothly and resumes its initial position at once.

 The flight velocity of the projectile is determined by the

torsion angle of the bar and can therefore be matched
 Page 31

without problems to the working width, machine speed and

weft yarn.

 During its flight through the shed the projectile glides in a

rake - like guide, so that the warp threads are not touched
either by the projectile or the weft thread.

 BEAT – UP MECHANISM
 Page 32

A double cam assembly is mounted on the main shaft.

Both cams are working counter to each other.

A rocker is resting on cam with anti friction bowl. This is

fasten to sley sword. Sley sword keeps the reed support for
final beat-up.

The cams are so designed that they provide sufficient

dwell (220-250) for the traverse of projectile.

 Take - up Drive
 Page 33

Take - up drive of Sulzer draw and winds the cloth

positively. Rate of take up can be adjusted by means or
change wheel. A combination of four wheels A,B,C,D is fitted
with a total of 12 change wheels it is possible to wheel weft
density of 36 to 910 threads/ 10cm and forward up to
1810picks/ 10cm by changing the worm gear.

 Let-Off Drive
 Page 34

The purpose of the let- off drive is to pay out the warp
sheet through turning the warp sheet by warp beam and at
the same time keeping the tension on warp constant. The
whip roller plays as the control element. It adjusts its height to
the tension of the warp and control the let-off motion of let-off
drive coupling by means of a bar. As the winding diameter of
the warp beam decreases, the whip roller moves gradually
downwards. As a result of this, the let-off increases and is
matched automatically to the winding diameter of the drum
take-up.
 Page 35

 PICK FINDING MECHANISM

When a pick is broken to find its position clutch is
brought to position third and hand wheel pull to out position
and two turns are given to it. Then it is brought to position
second and turn the hand wheel till the clutch returns to
position first. Thus dobby is turned on a pick back.

 Position 1: Clutch two is engaged.

 Position 2: Clutch two is disengaged. The clutch re

engages itself after the machine has been turned by one
pick.

 Position 3: Clutch two is disengaged.

 Page 36

 LIGHTS SIGNALS

1) Blue light blinking: - Warp thread breakage.

2) Yellow light blinking: - Weft thread breakage.

3) Yellow and red light blinking: - Shut down via

emergency switch.

4) Yellow light: - Specified length of fabric attained.

5) Red light: - Mechanical fault.

6) Red light blinks when machine is in operation: -

Electronic projectile detector or weft detector shut off.

 SENSORS AND STOP MOTION

• Amount of yarn wound on winding head by altering the

position of photocell by the help of rotating screw arranged
with Rack-Pinion system

• Projectile sensor – It is a metallic sensor situated at the

receiving side and it senses that projectile is reaching at
correct angle or not.

• Let- off sensor – P7100 provides electronic let off. If

tension in warp sheet decreases the sensor senses it by
suitable arrangement and motor regulates warp sheet
accordingly.

• Weft sensor –To sense the presence and absence of weft

supply at receiving side.
 Page 37

• Angle sensor- To stop the loom at correct angle at

particular degree.

• Warp stop motion- Electrical warp stop motion work

together with drop pin attachments.

A Study on Fabric Defects

1. Starting mark :

An isolated narrow bar running parallel with the picks,

starting abruptly & gradually shading away to normal cloth.
This is due to abrupt change in the pick spacing followed by
a gradual coming back to normal pick spacing.

Cause:

• Restarting wvg. M/c after pick finding.

• Reed (loom) stops ahead from the place where it

should stop (generally loom stops at 400),so that
sufficient moment is not generated during the next
pick beating and results in starting mark.

2. Weft Bar :

A bar due to difference in material, count, twist,

lusture or shade of the adjacent groups of weft yarns.

3. Reed Marks :

Irregular spacing between the groups of warp yarns

across the width of the fabric. The defect may be caused by
a damaged or defected reed, i.e. dent opened or gap is
more than normal between two dents.
 Page 38

4. Missing ends / Ends out / Chira :

This most commonly characterized by a gap of one or

more warp end in the fabric.

The main causes are:-

• The weaver is careless, not mends broken ends

immediately.

• Missing ends in the beams.

• Any end not passed from the heald & reed i.e. not drawn &
remain missed.

5. Patti :

Take up roller jammed or move slowly in between the

regular process due to some mechanical fault than a thick
place or closer pick spacing results known as Patti or thick
bar.

6. Thin :

Due to some mechanical fault take up roller moves

little bit faster, gives a fault known as thin bar.

7. Double pick :

In plane weave if after loom stops due to pick

breaking, loom is not turned back to its initial position than
two pick are comes in the same shed, resulting the defect
named double pick.
 Page 39

8. Design Cut :

If the above defect occurs in the dobby design, design

gets disturbed & defect is known as design cut.

Clean Fluffs & use thicker dobby card (250 Microns)

for Sulzer.

9. Temple mark :

Holes or surface disturbances along the selvedge of a

fabric due to bad or improperly adjusted temples.

• Cause: In temples ring are there of different size

according to cloth thickness if ring is not appropriate or
jammed or not working properly than results mark on
emerging out cloth.

Pin Pin type Diameter Application

length
1 mm Pointed 24 mm Spun yarn
1 mm Blunt 24 mm Woollen yarn
0.5 mm Pointed 24 mm Filament yarn ,
fine spun yarn

10. Slub :

Fly accumulated at drop pin or heald wire goes along

with the warp in the fabric create slub in the fabric, gives
defect in finishing if not removed.
 Page 40

11. Wrong Weft Pattern :

Hole is not punched properly for weft colour selection

or some mechanical mistake is selection needle, result
something wrong weft to be inserted thus give defect
known as wrong weft pattern.

12. Pattern Break :

Shed not opened properly due to some mechanical

fault, gives pattern break.

13. Broken pattern :

This defect may be due to wrong drawing of threads,

inserting a pick in the wrong shed, incorrect lifting of warp
threads.

14. Cracks :

A narrow streak parallel to the weft due to the

pronounced opening between two adjacent yarns. Any loom
condition that permits erratic operation of the sley or yarn
of its parts will create cracks in the fabric.

A loosed-reed, that is, one that has excess freedom in

the sley, will also caused this defect. A take-up motion
which is sticking may produce cracks in the fabric.
 Page 41

15. Floats stitches :

A place in the fabric where warp & weft yarns escape

the required interlacement.

• Main causes are :

Entanglement of warp threads due to delay in

repairing a broken end, knots with long tail ends, breakage
of wire healds on running loom, unsatisfactory working of
warp stop motion. With synthetic yarns, due to static
electricity generation, there is a tendency for the adjacent
ends to roll during weaving, this results floats or stitches
less opening of shed.

16. Stains :

Stains on the fabric are measure serious problems in

textile mills. Majority of the stains occur at loom shed only.
There are various kinds of stains.

e.g. oil, grease, rust, dirt, soil, carbon particles in air, sweat,
crayon, box mark etc.

Most of the stains can be traced back to poor material

handling, lack of care on the part of workers and poor oiling
and cleaning practices. Certain stains can be removed by
solvent but it involves additional cost.

17. Wrong warp pattern:

Wrong order of drawing the ends through the reed or

wrong order of drawing the ends through the healds.

MENDING

• Introduction:
Totally fault free fabric cannot be manufactured
on the loom. They are some small or extra faults that occur in
fabric during manufacturing.
But some faults along these could be mendable .They can be
eliminated easily.

• View Of Mending:-

No of Mending Tables – 36
No of workers- 40

The particular fabric incoming from weaving department is firstly

stored in grey mending store. Each fabric piece carries with
there ‘PIECE TICKIT’ which is having various particulars about
fabric. According to date of delivery, fabric pieces are arranged
in sequence systematic manner.
Earlier fabric first took for mending. The fabric piece is
given to mender for mending with its piece ticket.

These are the following faults that will mend by the mending
department:

Broken end/ pick , missing end / pick, reed mark, floating ends,
pattern mistake, contamination, naps, slubs, knots, oily yarn etc.

Material Handling of Weaving Shed

Transportation of weavers beam

• Manufacturer- Visco

A trolley which has a curved top so that the beam

does not roll off while being moved from one place to another.
A modern shed warp lifting device with healds is mounting
device has a capacity is used. Hydraulic lifting of heald is done
by foot paddle. Exact positioning of the heald. Shaft is done by
precise delivery system. After heald shaft being lowered, they
are disconnected automatically.

• Transportation of grey fabrics

Fabric should be doffed on a trolley which is then
pulled to the weavers beam trolley having capacity of 8 beams.
This type of trolley is suitable for the carrying up to 600 kg
load.
