The optimization of experimental parameters for jet-ring spinning

The application of air-jet nozzle in ring spinning system has been turned up in the last decade, and the greatest advantage reported is the reducing of hairiness. In this paper, an attempt has been made to optimize the utility of a single air-jet nozzle in ring spinning system. Some parameters, such as air pressure, the distance between front roller nip line and air-jet nozzle inlet, and the number of orifices were adjusted to get a better quality yarn. In order to confirm the role of these parameters, the properties of ring and jet-ring spun yarns were compared. All the samples were characterized in terms of count, twist, irregularity, hairiness and strength. The results showed that the air pressure and the distance have a significant influence on irregularity; all the experimental parameters have a significant influence on hairiness. By multi-objective programming method, a set of optimal experimental parameters was found, and the properties of jet-ring spun yam were improved significantly
