Chenille yarn, whose scientific name is spiral plush yarn, is a new type of fancy yarn. It is spun by using two strands as the core yarn and twisting the feather yarn in the middle. Therefore, it is also called chenille yarn vividly. Generally, there are chenille products such as viscose/nitrile, cotton/polyester, viscose/cotton, nitrile/polyester, viscose/polyester, etc.
Characteristics of chenille yarn
Chenille yarn is widely used in home textiles (sofa, wall paper, curtain fabrics, etc.) and knitted clothing due to its characteristics of plump down, soft hand, thick fabric and light texture. Its characteristic is that the fiber is held On the ply core yarn, which is shaped like a bottle brush, the chenille feels soft and has a very full appearance.
For the chenille products that are more popular and widely used on the market now, they are basically made of tufted cotton chenille yarn. Of course, depending on the production process of each manufacturer, there are also The big difference is in the pile of this chenille. The pile of cotton chenille produced by some manufacturers is relatively thick, while the pile produced by some manufacturers is relatively thin. This is related to the phenomenon that occurs due to different conditions of the chenille yarn used, while standard chenille They are all made from 1 chenille yarn.
Spinning principle
1.Conveying and positioning of core wires
During the spinning process, the core yarn is divided into upper core yarn and lower core yarn. They are unwound from the bobbin under the action of the traction roller and are fed in together. Under the action of the roller piece and the spacer piece, the upper and lower core threads are placed on both sides of the feather yarn, and are both in the middle of the feather yarn.
2. Introduction and cutting of feather yarn
The feather yarn is composed of two or three single yarns. The single yarn is unwound from the package and is twisted with the high-speed rotation of the rotary head, which increases the bundling of the feather yarn. At the same time, it is wound around the spacer to form a yarn loop. The loop slides downward as the roller piece rotates, and is cut into short feathers by the blade. These short feathers are sent to the control roller together with the upper core wire and merge with the lower core wire. In this way, the feather yarn is sandwiched between the two core wires and enters the twisting area.
3.Twisting and forming
With the high-speed rotation of the spindle, the core yarn is quickly twisted, and the twisted core yarn is firmly combined with the feather yarn to form a down-rich chenille yarn; at the same time, it is wound on the yarn tube to form the tube yarn. .
