Textile manufacturing process in India

Weaving is the most basic process in which two different sets of yarns or threads are interlaced with each other to form a fabric or cloth. One of these sets is called warp which is the lengthwise yarn running from the back to the front of the loom. The other set of crosswise yarns are the filling which are called the weft or the woof.

The warps form the basic structure of fabrics. As such, they are made to pass through many operations before actual weaving is done. These Spool Racksoperations include spooling, warping and slashing. In spooling, the yarn is wound on larger spools, or cones, that are placed on a rack known as creel. From the creel, the yarns are wound on a warp beam, which looks like a huge spool. These lengths of hundreds of warped yarns lie parallel to one another. These yarns are unwound for slashing, or sizing. The yarn is coated with sizing with the help of slasher machine. Slashing prevents chafing or breaking of yarns during weaving process. Sizing is either starch based or a synthetic like polyvinyl alcohol or a water soluble acrylic polymers. The sized yarns are then wound on a final warp beam and are ready for the loom.

The filling yarns experience less strain during the weaving process. Their preparation includes spinning them to the required size and giving them just the right amount of twist desired for the kind of fabric they will be used.

No matter what type of weaving is being done, four major operations are performed in sequence and are continuously repeated.
