| Abstract: | The problem of unpredictable shrinkage of cotton
knitted fabrics and garments faced by the industry has been investigated by
knitting single jersey cotton fabrics using the similar yarn and knitting
parameters as used in the industry and finishing them. Through linear
regression analysis, the variable factors, which affect the shrinkage and
should be included in the domain of the quality control system, have been
identified and predictive equations are established. Although, the variable
factors, namely linear density, twist factor, machine gauge and stitch length,
influence the shrinkage to a variable degree, stitch length is the dominating
factor. If shrinkage can be controlled, fabric weight is predicted with high
accuracy. |
