FIBRE FINENESS, YARN COUNTS AND CONVERSIONS
Micronaire Value (Cotton) : The unit is micrograms per inch. The average weight of one inch
length of fibre, expressed in micrograms(0.000001 gram).
Denier (Man-Made Fibres) : Weight in grams per 9000 meters of fibre.
Micron (Wool) : Fineness is expressed as fibre diameter in microns(0.001mm)
Conversions:
·
Denier = 0.354 x Micronaire value
·
Micronaire value = 2.824 x Denier

(13) Twist contraction % = It is basically the percent shortening in length of
yarn between the front roller and the bobbin. The length at the
front roll is taken as 100%. For example 5% twist contraction
means, the yarn length on the bobbin is 95% of the length at the

Twist contraction = 5%

(16)
Mechanical draft is always greater than actual draft in ring spinning?
It is necessary to draft the roving to a finer yarn count at front roll that what is to be
bobbin. Because due to twist contraction of yarn, the count of yarn on bobbin becomes
coarser than the count of yarn at front roller.

TEXTILE CALCULATIONS
The weight of cloth manufactured on loom depends upon the weight of yarns in the warp and
weft : ends/inch, picks/inch and the weight of size on the warp.
Therefore, Cloth weight = Weight of warp + Weight of weft + Weight of size (All in lbs.)
