Abstract:
This paper present the analysis of waste% of selvedge in rapier loom used
in Bangladesh. Woven fabric is produced by interlacement of warp and
weft yarns.
Construction of fabric is very important for woven fabric because amount
of weft yarn and warp yarn depends on EPI and PPI of the fabric. The
density of fabric depends on EPI and PPI. Count of yarn also important for
woven fabric.
Selvedge is the waste of total fabric production but it is very important to
maintain the width of the fabric. It is also very to maintain construction of
the fabric during weaving.
For this study we collected the samples from weaving industry.
