PROCESS FLOW FOR DENIM MANUFACTURING

 

PROCESS FLOW FOR DENIM MANUFACTURING:

The warp yarn (length-wise) used in denim fabrics is uniquely prepared for denim manufacturing compared to conventional woven fabrics. The yarn goes through numerous processing steps before it is placed on the weaving machine. Unlike the warp yarn, most filling yarn (width-wise) is put onto yarn packages and delivered directly to the weaving machine where it is inserted into the fabric without any further preparation in the same manner as conventional woven fabrics. The following flow chart reveals the necessary steps in the manufacture of denim fabrics,beginning with the production of the warp yarns used. The chart forms an outline for most of the topics that will be covered in this bulletin.
