Experiment No: 02

Experiment Name: Experiment on Jute Carding machine.

Introduction:
Carding is the one of the most important processes in cotton spun yarn manufacturing,
because it determines the quality of yarn. This is the process, by which textile fibers are
prepared to manufacture a yarn. In this process, fibers are opened at almost single, removal of
dust, trash, neps and short fiber to produce a continuous strand of fiber called sliver. Carding
machine is called mother or heart of spinning, because it prepares the fiber in such a way,
which is ready to manufacture yarn because disentanglement, cleaning and intermixing of
fiber are happened here [1].

Objectives:
1. To know about carding machine.
2. Come to learn different parts of carding machine.
3. To know about types of carding machine.
4. To know working principle of carding machine.

Discussion:

Different types of carding machine:

1.Stationary flat card


2.Revolving flat card

Stationary flat carding machine:


In the flat carding machine, the flat does not rotate and the flat covers one fourth of the
cylinder.

Revolving flat carding machine:


The flat revolves or rotates along with the cylinder in the Revolving flat carding machine.
In the era of modern science, the carding machine also discovered new and easy to use by
depend on setting and setup the cylinder and take in. Out modern carding machine gives us
extra care about the fibers and make them smoother and more useable. The another different
design and style carding machines are:

1.Dual carding machine


2.Mono or single carding machine
3.Tandem carding machine
1. Mono Carding machine:
When a single carding machine with one cylinder is sued for carding, it’s called Mono
carding machine. It is used for cotton, not successful for jute.
2. Dual carding machine:
When two individual carding machines i.e. breaker card and finisher card are used in carding,
they are called dual carding machine. It is used for jute processing.

3. Tandem carding machine:


When tow carding machines are used at a combination then it is called Tandem Carding
machine. The motion is transferred from 1st machine to the 2nd machine. When one machine
stops the other stops automatically. It is sued in case of Roller spinning in Cotton.
In tandem carding machine, two individual cards make up a unit. The doffer of the 1st card
feeds fibers material to the taker-in of the 2nd card. Double carding of the raw material has a
positive effect on quality and on blending. However, the advantage is obtained at high-cost
hardware and maintenance. Again, additional space is required for tandem card. About 1%
cotton is processed with tandem cards now. Modern cards are considered as a tandem of the
latest generation.

Parts of Carding Machine:


1. pipe ducting
2. feed chute
3. transport roller
4. feed arrangement
5. taker-in/licker-in
6. grid equipment
7. suction duct
8. main cylinder
9. fixed carding bars
10. flats
11. Cleaning unit
12. Fixed carding bars
13. Cover plates/grid
14. Doffer
15. Stripping device
16. Calendar roller
17. Cans
18. Coiler [2].

Material Passage Diagram of Carding Machine:


Fig: Material passage diagram of carding machine [3].

1. Feed roller- taker in zone:


From the feed arrangement, the chute mat is pushed into the working zone of the feed roller-
taker in. The chute mat is opened to tufts by the taker in wire through combing action.
2. Taker in-cylinder zone:
From the feed roller-taker in zone, the opened tufts are transferred to the taker in-cylinder
working zone for opening to small tuft size. For cleaning, the material is passed over grid
equipment and mote knife attached the underside of taker in. Here points are in face to back
arrangement. Suction ducts carry away the waste from trash box.
3. Cylinder-Flat zone:
The small tufts are then transferred to cylinder-flat zone and opened up into individual fibers
which are defined as the actual carding process. Here points are in face-to-face arrangement.
Neps are removed in this zone. The flats comprise 80-116 individual carding bars combined
into a belt moving on an endless path and approx. 30-50 flats are active to the main cylinder.
The rest are on the return run. During this return, a cleaning unit strips fibers, neps and
foreign matter from the flat bars.
4. Cylinder-doffer zone:
After the carding operation, the cylinder carries along the fibers s that are opened to single
and loose condition as well as lie parallel without continuous structure. For forming a
continuous structure of the carded single fibers s the doffer is required. The doffer combines
the fibers s into a web. Here points are in face-to-face arrangement [2].

Conclusion:

Carding machines are vital in the textile industry, particularly in the processing of jute. These
machines undertake essential functions like fiber opening, cleaning, aligning, and
parallelizing, ultimately converting raw fibers into a form suitable for yarn spinning. The
significance of these machines lies in their ability to remove impurities, align fibers, and
create uniformity, eventually to increase yarn quality. Efficient carding machine operation
ensures smooth processes such as spinning, resulting in consistent and high-performance
yarn.
