Abstract:
The study was aim to determine the
suitability of intersecting gilling machine in jute
processing system. In this regard the machine was
used for processing of jute fibre to yarn [1]. The
third drawing sliver passed through the intersecting
gilling of GN5 type into 4:1 input –output ratio of
slivers. Yarns spun by this slivers through different
types of spinning frame. Quality ratio of jute yarns
produced from different spinning machines were
measured. These were for Hessian Spinning
machine is 84.17%, Apron draft spinning frame is
88.59% and Spingard spinning frame 96.34%.
However for medium count jute-polypropylene
blended yarn, the quality ratios are between 102-
112 and yarns were spun by hessian spinning
frame. These results compared with the yarn
produced through conventional jute spinning
system (except intersecting Gilling machine, table
2). Findings of the study indicate a new era for the
jute processing by using intersecting Gilling
machine. It is observed that the introduction of
Intersecting Gilling machine has a potential
prospect in jute processing for making fine jute
yarn.
