PROCESS DEFINITION Knitting is the interlocking of one or more yarns through a series of loops. The length wise columns of stitches, corresponding to the warp in woven cloth, are called WALES; the cross wise rows of stitches, corresponding to the filling in woven cloth, are known as COURSES, FILLING KNITS (WEFT KNITS) are those fabrics in which the courses are composed of a single strand of yarn, while warp knits are those in which the Wales are composed of single strands of yarn. GAUGE Corresponds to the yarn count in a woven fabric, and is defined as the number of needles or yarns in ½ inches of cloth. The higher the gauge, the more compact and finer the cloth. PROCESS REQUIREMENTS In Aboni Textiles Ltd. 3 types of machines are used for producing knitted fabric. These are: - 1. Circular knitting Machine (Single Jersey Machines) 2. Circular knitting Machine (Double Jersey Machine) 3. Flat knitting Machine. CONSIDERABLE POINTS TO PRODUCE KNITTED FABRIC. 1. G.S.M. It is technical term that indicates the weight of the fabric per square meter. 2. CHANGING OF G.S.M: (I) (ii) Major control by quality pulley. Minor control by stitch length adjustment. 25
Altering the position of the tension pulley changes the G.S.M. of the fabric. If pulley moves towards the positive directive then the G.S.M. is decrease. And in the reverse direction G.S.M will increase. 3. POINTS THAT SHOULD CONSIDER IN CASE OF G.S.M. CHANGING: 1. Tension pulley 2. Cam position 3. Take up motion 4. FACTORS THAT SHOULD BE CHANGE IN CASE OF FABRIC DESIGN ON QUALITY CHANGE: 1. Cam setting 2. Tension pulley 3. Set of needle 4. Size of the loop shape 5. RECOMMENDABLE POINTS OF A BUYER: 1. Diameter of the fabric 2. Design of the fabric 3. G.S.M. of the fabric 4. Total weight of the fabric 5. Yarn count 6. Types of yarn (combed or carded) 7. Color of the fabric.

Type of cleaning: Manual cleaning by compressed air with the air gun. ii. Cleaning points: Needle Sinker Creel tube Feeder Yarn Body of the machine iii. Cleaning frequency: Daily per shift 2. Oiling procedure of the machine: Nowadays all knitting machinery has automation. Lubricating system in the machine is automatic. When machine’s different zone feels the requirement of oil then oil circulates to that zone in correct proportion from the oil tank by pumping. Operator just check the oil tank either it is full or empty. When the tank is going to be empty then operator fill the oil tank by the recommanded oil. If the machine were inactive in auto lubrication then there is a push button, which circulates oil to different zone. i. Type of oil: Gear oil 630 (Mobil) Textile oil light (Mobil) 45
ii. Type of grease: EP3 XHP – 222 iii. Name of the greasing points: Dial gear Cylinder gear Roller gear Chain Sprocket iv. Greasing frequency: Not frequently used. v. Name of the oiling points: Needle butt Cam Trick Sinker vi. Oiling frequency: Daily per shift in running machine Changing of gear oil in dial after 2000 hours. 46
3. Setting points and their effect of changing: Setting points Quality adjustment pulley (QAP) Gauge meter Effects Yarn tension & stitch length Cylinder movement (Up & Down), Control yarn tension and stitch length. Cam box movement (Up & Down), Control yarn tension and stitch length. Grey fabric diameter control, Stitch length control In clockwise rotation of button fabric takedown tension increases & vice-versa Selection of rib or interlock gaiting Fabric takedown tension control Tension bolt on cam box Spreader bar Fabric takedown tension pulley Centering bolt Takedown roller/change wheel 4. Maintenance schedule of the machine: Use 15-20 drops of oil per day in each machine dial. Give needle oil daily while the machine is running. Further oil change will be carried out after every 3 months. Grease to be given to all movable parts. 5-6 drops oil to be given in handle of bearing. Additionally it is necessary to clean the ball bearings of the electric motor after2000 running hours and to refill them with grease. 5. Preventive maintenance of the machine: All persons do the maintenance work in the knitting machine should have adequate knowledge about maintenance of knitting machine. They will cutoff the electric line, airline, and make them safe before maintenance of machine. Checked that auto circuit breakers are fitted in the machine. Use dust mask. Keep all fire fighting equipment, first aid box ready. Routine maintenance: 6. In this factory having no routine maintenance of machinery. But generally each three months maintenance is done for each machine randomly. Besides when 47
any machine doesn’t run properly then call the maintenance stuffs from the maintenance department. They will solve the problem either mechanical or electrical. MANPOWER SETUP FOR MAINTENANCE: Generally 1 or 2 persons from maintenance department come to solve the problem of a single machine. MAINTENANCE OPREATION: Any problem of machinery in the knitting department shall report to knitting section and maintenance department. Knitting technician and maintenance assigned person will thoroughly investigate the problem. Find out the causes of problem determines the degree of service requires. Estimate spare requirement place requisition for spare to the store and service the machinery to bring it back to running condition. All breaks down maintenance works will be recorded in the breakdown maintenance register. SERVICING OF CIRCULAR KNITTING MACHINE: When a machine is selected for production after a long time break then servicing of that machine is being essential. Besides due to long running machine sometimes jammed. So it is required to clean that machine thoroughly. No machine is kept under rest after servicing. At the start of servicing the machine is run for 30 minutes in empty condition with adding oil. In this time the feeder, holder is parted then they are cleaned by compressed air. Then cam boxes are separated from the machine. After that sinker and needle are removed from the machine. Cam boxes and sinker cam bed are cleaned by compressed air. After removing needles the tricks are petrol washed then adding lubricant. During petrol wash the maximum dust is cleaned. The remaining dust is removed manually with care. During servicing the damaged needle or sinker are replaced by the new one. 48
