Introduction

POWERLOOM TEXTILES:

The Indian textiles, renowned for their fineness and captivating colours for ages beyond 5000

years, have attracted connoisseurs, from all parts of the world. The textiles of India bear the

imprint of the fine craftsmanship of the Indian weaver. The skill of weaving with deft fingers,

drawing patterns and creating designs, is an art which has been handed down through

generations from father to son, from time immemorial. These finest gossamer fabrics woven

from yarns of superior finish are now being manufactured more and more on powerlooms.

The emergence of powerloom has transformed an art into a modern industry, producing around

19,000 million meters of fabrics annually and employing over 7 million of workers. The

combination of traditional art and contemporary modern designs, has given a unique character to

the Indian powerloom textiles.

The modernisation process undertaken by the powerloom industry has widened the scope of

products such as grey, printed and dyed fabrics and cotton made-ups in a variety of sophisticated

finishes and in a wide range of widths and sizes. Besides, the industry is now in a position tooffer fabrics not only of cottons but also of rich blends of cotton, synthetics and other fibers. The

process of economic liberalisation, has enabled the industry to become globally competitive, not

only in terms of price , but also of quality.

It is therefore no surprise that powerloom textiles worth more than Rs. 44,000 million have been

exported to all the four corners of the world, covering not only the developed but also developing

countries. U.S.A., France, Germany, Bangladesh, Hongkong, Italy, etc., have been our major

markets, indicating the directional pattern of exports. The discerning buyers of these countries

prefer Indian textiles, as these meet their requirements, wether it be in texture, finish, weave,

variety, quality, price, width & size, count & construction, weight, specifications.

The range of products offered are many splendoured, right from greys to finished fabrics and to

made-ups.

Waffles weave fabric

Waffle weave fabric is a woven fabric with a recessed square pattern. The raised edges around

the recessed squares give the pattern the look of the breakfast food called waffles. Waffle weave

fabric is available in different gauges from very fine to medium to coarse.

Fine gauge waffle weave material contains tiny squares and the fabric is usually lightweight.

This type of waffle weave often makes fast-drying dishcloths or dishtowels and also works well

for a summer weight bathrobe. Medium gauge waffle weave fabric is commonly used in all types

of towels. Coarse or large gauge waffle weave material makes very luxurious plush towels or

bathrobes.

Quality control:

QC/Technical Support

Quality control is one of the most important aspects to be maintained in a manufacturingbusiness. QC inspection is done partially in-house and in partnership with other subcontractors.

Proficient, skillful and responsible technicians and production staff are given training to perform

quality control analysis. They are trained by other agencies.

QC Staff:

10 to 199

Procedures/testing Details

Customers can provide their sample design or product. After receiving the layout, our staff will

analyze the fabric composition, type, feel and, color. Thereafter, we will produce a countersample, which exactly meets all specifications stipulated.

When confirmation is made and before production begins, all raw materials are inspected. In

each production stage, fabrics are checked at random for holes, stains, dimensions, color

deviation, fastness and others, thus minimizing defect and error possibility. An independent QC

contractor also conducts inspection.

Other Information

The grade of the product is vital and crucial, therefore strict methods are implemented in each

process. Random checking is also performed to assure excellence. Finally, pre-packinginspection is done to guarantee defect-free products.

Twill weaves fabric

Twill weave is characterized by the effect of parallel diagonal ribs formed left-to-right or right-

to-left. It is created by the interlacing of 2 or 3 warp threads over 1 or 2 filling thread in alternaterows. The resulting fabric is more pliable and drape able than the plain or basket weave but less

pliable than satin.

Twill weave which has more warps than the wefts floating on the face of the fabric is called warp

faced and those with wefts predominating is known as weft faced.

Characteristics of Twill Weave

It has fewer interlacing than plain weave.

It is durable and heavier.

It is wrinkle resistant.

It is resistant to showing soil and soiling.

The twill direction is defined as left or right hand or variation.

It is more raveling than plain weave.

It is more pliable drape and hand than plain weave.

that are woven into the fabric structure. Dobbies may be of any weight or compactness, with

simpler background weave. Dobby fabrics usually have small birdseye, dot or other geometric

patterns.

Fabrics with dobby weave:

Uses of dobby weave:

A good example of dobby weave is stripes or waffle cloth but the designs need to bestraight vertically or horizontally.

Seer sucker fabric

Seersucker is a cotton fabric with a name deriving from the Persian term SHIR O SHAKAR

which means milk and sugar. The fabric was initially made in Iraq, yet it was popularized inAmerica, especially for mens clothing.

Seersucker is made by what is called a slack-tension weave, where groups of yarn are bunched

together in certain portions of the fabric created a puckered, almost wrinkled look to the fabric.

In fact, its usually unnecessary to iron seersucker garments because they are supposed to look

slightly wrinkly. The puckering effect of the weave creates a wonderful feature in seersucker

garments. They tend to be much cooler to wear because airspace is created between the body and

parts of the clothing.

Characteristics of seer sucker fabric:

Seersucker has a crinkled surface.

Usually striped pattern, often colored.

The fabric comes in medium to heavy weights.

Seersucker is woven with wrinkles in it.

Jacquard fabric

The Jacquard loom is a mechanical loom, invented by Joseph Marie Jacquard in 1801, which

used the holes punched in pasteboard punch cards to control theweaving of patterns in fabric.

The loom enabled even amateur weavers to weave complex designs. Each punch card

corresponded to one row of the design and the cards were strung together in order. It was based

on an earlier invention by the French mechanic Falcon in 1728.

Each hole in the card corresponds to a "Bolus" hook, which can either be up or down. The hook

raises or lowers the harness which carries and guides the warpthread so that the weft will either

lay above or below it. The sequence of raised and lowered threads is what creates the pattern.

Each hook can be connected via the harness to a number of threads, allowing more than one

repeat of a pattern. A loom with a 400 hook head might have 4 threads connected to each hook,

giving you a fabric that is 1600 warp ends wide with four repeats of the weave going across.

It was the first machine to use punch cards to control a sequence of operations. Although it didno computation based on them, it is considered an important step in the history of computing

hardware. The ability to change the pattern of the loom's weave by simply changing cards was an

important conceptual precursor to the development of computer programming. Specifically,

Charles Babbage planned to use cards to store programs in his Analytical engine. At first sight

this may seem unremarkable but it was a clear turning point in the ability to store and re-use

machine instructions. Whilst Babbage did not live to see that his ideas were viable, they have

since been proved to work reliably.

The term "Jacquard loom" is a misnomer. It is the "Jacquard head" that adapts to a great many

dobby looms such as the "Dornier" brand that allow the weaving machine to then create theintricate patterns.

Jacquard looms, whilst relatively common in the textile industry, are not as ubiquitous as dobby

looms which are usually faster and much cheaper to operate. However unlike jacquard looms

they are not capable of producing so many different weaves from one warp. Modern jacquard

looms are computer controlled and can have thousands of hooks. And inevitably, unlike

Jacquard's original invention there is now no need for the use of punched cards - instead the

patterns are literally computer controlled.

The threading of a jacquard loom is so labor intensive that many looms are threaded only once.Subsequent warps are then tied in to the existing warp with the help of a knotting robot which

ties each new thread on individually. Even for a small loom with only a few thousand warp ends

the process can take days.
