New Technologies for Fashionable Functional Clothing - Combining Model Design and Innovative Patterning- Juniper Publishers

Journal of Fashion Technology -  Juniper publishers Keywords Keywords:  3D-CAD; Parametric human models; Typical posture of the sport Go to Introduction The design process for ready-made textile products has made use of technologies over the last decades which have seen only minor modifications. While the textile industry with its new fibre fabrics and novel textile structures is a source of innovation for many technological developments in other sectors (lightweight construction sector with textile-reinforced plastics, civil engineering and medicine sectors), the process technologies for garment design have remained largely unchanged. Though 2D CAD applications have been brought to perfection to quite an extent, they do not close the digital IT gap between model design and patterning of a product. In order to realise innovative products within ever shorter design cycles that meet high quality requirements at a reasonable cost, it would make sense if...

Textile Industry - An Overview- Juniper Publishers

Image
Journal of Fashion Technology -  Juniper publishers Abstract This paper is an attempt to provide fundamental information on the textile industry, covering broadly the areas of fibre, yarn and fabric production. It provides a crisp outline of common textile fibres and steps involved in the conversion of fibre to yarn, yarn to fabric and fabric wet processing for value addition. Besides students of the textile discipline, this article would also be useful to intermediate level employees engaged in diferent aspects of textile manufacture. Consumers and home economists looking for guidance in the selection and care of textile products might also find it interesting. Keywords:  Fibres; Yarn; Filament; Weaving; Knitting; Dyeing; Printing; Finishing Go to Introduction The textile industry primarily comprises the production of yarn, fabric and finished goods. Textile manufacturers procure or produce raw fibres and transform them into yarn, thread or webbing; the...

The Effect of Stitch Density and Stitching Patterns on the Puncture Resistance of High Strength Plain Woven Fabric- Juniper Publications

Image
Journal of Fashion Technology -  Juniper publishers Abstract A study was conducted on the effects of stitch density with different types of stitching patterns towards the puncture resistance of plain weave Twaron fabric. The fabrics were stitched with nylon threads using stitch densities of 4 stitches/cm and 8 stitches/cm. Four types of stitching patterns were used namely, vertical, diagonal, square and diamond stitched patterns. A conical probe was used in the puncture resistance tests and the puncture loads required to perforate the fabric samples were recorded. The results suggest that the samples with 8 stitches/cm has higher puncture load values than the 4 stitches/cm samples, regardless of the number of layers. Among the stitching patterns, the diagonal and diamond stitched patterns showed much higher puncture load values for both the 4 stitches/cm and 8 stitches/cm samples. The study also found that three particularly different fabric failure modes during punctu...
