Application

The main current applications of 3D woven

fabrics are in composites made from textilepreforms and in protective clothing

Introduction

The 3D fabrics are defined as a single fabric system,the constituent yarns of which are supposedly

disposed in a three mutually perpendicular plane

relationship.

Making of fabrics with substantial thickness by

layering.

Here are mainly three types of manufacturing

systems to produce woven 3D fabrics.

Classification of 3D fabrics

Classification of 3D fabrics is basically done

into two types:-

Based on type of weaving process

Based on type of 3D structures

2D woven fabric

To produce a 3D fabric by the conventional 2Dweaving process a multi-layer warp has to becompulsory used.

By using a multi-layer warp and weft interlaced 3Dfabrics such weft interlock and warp interlock can beproduced.

The different layers of the multi-layer warp can alsobe interconnected.

The multi-layer warp is displaced in the fabric

thickness direction by the operation of shedding to

form a shed across the fabric width direction in order

to enable interlacement with the weft.

This manner of weaving producing a 3D fabric

constituting two sets of yarn is called as 2D weaving.

3D Woven fabric

The process developed by Fukuta interlaces three

orthogonal sets of yarns to produce a fully interlaced

3D fabric.

This process complies with the principle of weaving

and hence qualifies to be described as the true 3D

weaving process.

Shedding of the multi-warp is done not only

across the fabric thickness direction,But also

across the fabric-width direction for enablinginterlacement of the multi-layer warp with the

set of horizontal weft and the set of vertical

weft.

3D weaving process

The essential aspects of 3D weaving process

are as follows:-

A grid like multi-layer warp is compulsory

required

Through the dual-directional shedding

operation, the multiple sheds are formed in

both row-wise and column-wise directions

The row-wise and the column-wise sheds are

not formed simultaneously but alternately

Multiple wefts of the respective directions are

accordingly picked in their corresponding

sheds.
