Introduction Machines condition will be deteriorated if it is exposed to the environment and subject to use. If these process remain unchecked and unchanged it will cause unserviceable and standstill of the machine. Industry therefore has no other way but to attend, to repair, to maintain, to set and to recondition them so as to[…]

Quality control is done through inspections and testing. Inspection Inspection is the process of visual identification of defects or[…]
Introduction The growth of microorganisms on textile can lead to functional, hygienic, and aesthetic difficulties (for example staining). The most trouble-causing organisms are fungi and bacteria. Under very moist condition, algae, can also grow on textiles but are troublesome only because they act as nutrient sources for fungi and bacteria. Fungi cause multiple problems to[…]

Introduction Static electricity can cause many processing problems for textile materials, especially those made form hydrophobic synthetic fibres. In most dry textile processes, fibres and fabrics move at high speeds over various surfaces which can generate electrostatic charging from frictional forces. This electrical charge can cause fibres and yarns to repel each other, leading to ballooning. Fabrics and non-woven are also affected[…]
