Classification of yarns on the basis of processing?

Answer:

Classification of yarns on the basis of processing:

1. Carded yarn.

2. Combed yarn.

3. Semi-combed yarn.

Carded or Carded yarn: It is an inferior quality of yarn. In processing this yarn, no comber is used. It contains more short fibres and naps.

Combed yarn: It is a superior quality of yarn. In manufacturing combed yarn comber is used. So this yarn contains almost no naps or short fibres.

Semi combed yarn: It is a medium quality of yarn. It is manufactured by mixing some combed slivers. For example, 50% combed sliver means if there are 8 slivers 4 carded and 4 combed slivers are mixed at post-comb draw frame to produce this type of yarn.
