Structural Analysis and Optimization

Compact-Siro spinning technology is one of the most widely used spinning methods. It is conducted on a compact ring frame by simultaneously feeding two rovings into the drafting zone at a predetermined separation. In fact, Compact-Siro spinning incorporates the features of both Compact and Siro-spinning systems. In this paper, the structure of CompactSiro spun yarn is investigated. By using a DZ3 video microscope, the horizontal structure of Compact-Siro spun yarn, Sirospun yarn, Compact yarn and Ring spun yarn were obtained. It is shown that compared with Compact single yarn, Compact-Siro spun yarn has a more compact and clear surface structure, a more uniform and smooth shape, and less hairiness. Then the cross section structure of Compact yarn and Compact-Siro spun yarn were obtained by using Hardy’s Y172 thin cross-section sampling device and the DZ3 video microscope. It is shown that compared with Sirospun yarn, the cross-section of Compact-Siro spun yarn is smoother and closer to being circular. Meanwhile in the Compact-Siro spun yarn body, the fibers of two substrands show axial symmetrical distribution approximately, which is beneficial for spun yarn qualities, especially for improving the yarn evenness and hairiness. Finally the results obtained were illustrated in spinning experiments.
