A New Draft-Cut Spinning System

Abstract

The possibility of a new draft-cut spinning system which makes use of the conventional machinery of the Per-Lohke system is discussed in the following article. Through consideration of the various tow-to-sliver processes, optimum conditions are arrived at as a basis for the new draft-cut spinning system introduced herein.
Firstly, the draft-cut machanism is explained theoretically by citing the theories of probability and geometry.
Secondly, the characteristic features of the tow-treating method and equipment are explained, and the relationship between treatment conditions and the effect of treatment is qualitatively shown.
Thirdly, the author tries to establish the validity of his theory by experiments. The results obtained thus far from the experiments generally satisfy the theory he has developed.
