Introduction to Textile Engineering

.

Textile Engineering is a part of engineering which includes the study on textile raw materials, textile production, textile processing etc. It is the study of various principles where these principles are applied for the processing and production of all kinds of textile fabric and yarn from textile fibres. The physical and chemical properties which learned are utilized for the detailed study and analysis of the behavior of textile fibres.

Textile Engineering is the field which involve design, manufacture, distribution and sales of clothing, management.

It is an innovative field .The techniques of production changes to get a better quality fabrics and to increase the production rate. The Textile Engineering is also known as Textile Technology.

From Dictionary Textile defines as,

a. A broad classification of materials that can be utilized in constructing fabrics, including textile fiber and yarns.

b. Designates the constructed fabric including woven, knitted and non-woven construction as well as lace and crocheted goods.

c. Descriptive of processes, organizations, personal associated with the manufacturer of products from fibers or yarn.

Textile manufacturing is a major industry. It is based in the conversion of three types of fibre into yarn, then fabric, then textiles. These are then fabricated into clothes or other artifacts. Cotton remains the most important natural fibre, so is treated in depth. There are many variable processes available at the spinning and fabric-forming stages coupled with the complexities of the finishing and coloration processes to the production of wide ranges of products. There remains a large industry that uses hand techniques to achieve the same results.

So, the Textile Engineering divided into four major area such as

1. Yarn Manufacturing

2. Fabric Manufacturing

3. Wet Processing

4. Garments Manufacturing
