Abstract:

The influence of initial warp yarn tension and fabric weave on warp yarn projections are investigated in this article. Fabrics were woven with different initial tensions and weaves. The warp yarn projections were measured beside the floats in the central part of fabrics. The dependencies of warp yarn projections on initial warp yarn tensions and dependencies of warp yarn projections on different weave factors were also determined. According to the coefficient of determination, it was determined that the average weave factor F, which was proposed by Ashenhurst, evaluates the geometric variations of the fabric the best. During the investigation, the dependencies of warp yarn projections on initial warp yarn tensions of different fabric weaves were established. The decrease in warp yarn values with increasing initial warp tensions was determined.
