Abstract | ||||
This paper gives accurate methods to calculate weave angle, yarn crimp ratio, and fabric thickness in a plain-woven fabric. Two simply obtained fabric characteristics are used. These characteristics are yams/ cm i.e ends/cm and picks/cm and yarn diameter for warp and weft. This method can be used instead of using crimp tester or thickness meter. This helps save time, effort, and money and is suitable for expensive fabrics as fabric destroying is avoided. yarn crimp ratio can thus be calculated in advance and the amount of yarn required to weave a certain quantity of fabric can be estimated. Fabric weight can also be calculated. This helps reduce yarn waste to a minimum. | ||||
