Significance and Use3.1 Terminology D3888 was originally developed as aterminology standard for rotor spinning when it evolved as anew yarn spinning technology in the 1980s. Ring spinningproduction had

6、 been the traditional spinning since the early1800s when hand spinning became mechanized. Rotor spin-ning and other spinning technologies increased yarn productionrates and formed yarns by different mechanical means thatgenerated yarns with characteristics unlike traditional ring-spun yarns. The rev

7、ision of this document is intended tocompile terminology for current yarn spinning systems intoone standard rather than individual standards, in that all yarnformation is generated by processing raw fiber into a spun yarnby using common preparation steps, such as opening, cleaning,carding, roving fo

8、rmation, and sometimes combing. Terminol-ogy in this standard is grouped by the type of spinning systemand in chronological order of their development and productionusage. It should be noted that the higher end of yarn numberranges cited with each spinning system are possible but are rarein actual p

9、roduction.4. Terminology4.1 Ring SpinningRing spinning is the oldest spinningsystem in use, therefore ring-spun yarns are the basis forcomparing yarns produced from other spinning systems. Pro-duction rates are low when compared to new spinning systems.The production delivery capability of ring spin

10、ning is limitedby traveler velocity and the twist limits of the yarn numberbeing made; the speed may range between 10 and 20 m/min.Ring spinning allows for the production of the widest range ofyarn numbers from 200 to 2 tex (Nec3/1 to 300/1). Ring-spunyarns are produced by drafting rovings between p

11、airs of rollers,twisting the drafted roving by passing it under a traveler thatrotates around a fixed ring on the frame of the spinningmachine, and winding the twisted strand on a removablebobbin mounted on a rotating spindle. Ring spun yarns arecharacterized by a uniform fiber orientation around th
