ABSTRACT
ᄁ Shed Geometry & Different Possible Shed Geometries.
ᄁ Elements Of Shed Geometry.
ᄁ Shed Geometry Classification:-
" Shed Symmetricity
" Shed Vibration
" Shed Staggering
" Shed Clearance
ᄁ Its Characteristics, Effect & Applications.
ᄁ On a weaving loom, warp yarn are divided into two half to make up a shed. This division makes up a specific geometry of divided warp yarns, called "Shed Geometry".
ᄁ Shed Geometry plays vital roll in controlling warp yarns,
" Tension
" Elongation and
" Friction between them.
ᄁ Resultantly this helps in controlling,
" Weft Density of Fabric
" Warp and weft yarn breakages and loom stoppages, hence machine efficiency
" And also help to control/avoid fabric faults produced due to these.
" Different Possible Shed Geometries:
" Elements Of Shed Geometry:
ᄁ Components that may part of the Shed Geometry of may contribute to it are:
" Frame Height
" Frame Depth
" Cloth Support (front rest) Height
" Back Rest
