Experiment Name:
Determination the yarn count of a given cotton fiber sample yesteryear wrap reel & analytical balance.
Theory:
Yarn count: The yarn count is a numerical facial expression which defines its fineness or coarseness. It too expresses weather condition the yarn is thick or thin. H5N1 Definition is given yesteryear the stuff industrial plant life – “Count is a divulge which indicates the majority per unit of measurement length or the length per unit of measurement majority of yarn.”
Length inwards yard × Weight Unit
Cotton Count = ........................................................................................................0 1
840 Yard × Weight inwards pound
Objectives of Experiment:
- To know close yarn count .
- To know close wrap reel & analytical balance.
- To know how to create upwardly one's heed the count yesteryear wrap reel & analytical residual .
H5N1 wrap reel or skein winder is a device for measure yarn together with making it into hanks of a touchstone size.. The reel is of a touchstone size together with its revolutions are counted every bit the yarn is wrapped unopen to it. Typically, a laid upwardly divulge of revolutions volition live used thus that the hank is of a touchstone size — a skein or lea. For example, a skein of cotton fiber would live lxxx turns on a reel of 54 inches circumference, making 120 yards, piece the touchstone length for wool worsted would live lxxx yards.
The tension of the yarn every bit it was injure onto the reel was of import because it would live elastic together with thus a touchstone tension was required to ensure uniformity. For a given reel, this would live determined yesteryear the friction of the setup together with thus the attempt hanks would live made together with measured inwards other ways to calibrate the device.
Wrap reel are 2 types on the the world of driving method :
Analytical Balance:
- Hand Drive
- Power Drive .

An analytical residual (often called a "lab balance") is a degree of residual designed to stair out modest majority inwards the sub-milligram range. The measure pan of an analytical residual (0.1 mg or better) is within a transparent enclosure amongst doors thus that dust does non collect together with thus whatsoever air currents inwards the room produce non send upon the balance's operation. This enclosure is ofttimes called a draft shield. The purpose of a mechanically vented residual security enclosure, which has uniquely designed acrylic airfoils, allows a smoothen turbulence-free airflow that prevents residual fluctuation together with the stair out of majority downward to 1 μg without fluctuations or loss of product. Also, the sample must live at room temperature.

Sl. No | Length (Yard) | Weight(gm) | Weight(lbs) Gm Wt/453.6 | Count | Average Count |
01 | 120 | 2.00 | o.0044 | 32.46 | |
02 | 120 | 2.10 | 0.0046 | 31.05 | |
03 | 120 | 2.00 | 0.0044 | 32.46 | 31.48 |
04 | 120 | 2.15 | 0.0047 | 30.40 | |
05 | 120 | 2.10 | 0.0046 | 31.05 |
Calculation:
Length inwards yard × Weight Unit
Count = ..........................................................
840 Yard × Weight inwards pound
120×1
= ......................
840×0.0044
= 32.46
By the same procedure some other are calculate together with calculate average count.
Result:
The cotton fiber count is 31.48
Procedure:
- Make lea yesteryear Wrap reel.
- Weight the lee yesteryear analytic residual .
- Convert the weight gram to pound.
- Now the information are set equation (1)
- Now calculate the count yesteryear the equation.
- Now average count are calculate which is cotton fiber count of this sample.
- To keep proper tension of yarn when yarn are air current on wrap reel.
- Weight are taken real carefully .
It is the real slowly procedure but in that place ask to a greater extent than fourth dimension than some other process.
