We all know sayings like the tough Bavarian "heaven,
ass, and thread" or "the simpler the brain, the more expensive the
thread." In general, we like to speak of "fine thread" when we
hear a noble fabric, generally that of a men's suit. Here, according to the pars-per-toto
principle, a part is designated for the whole.
The string is essentially the smallest part of the
costume, the thread with which it is woven and sewn. Find out more about the
quality and unique properties of the yarn.
The twist is the name for twisting two or more threads
together into a thicker line. This process is known as wire finishing. Of
course, this thread is more resistant to tearing than individual threads. There
are two types of threads: plain threads and fancy threads. You probably know
the latter for rugs that have slight bumps and knots. These are made with
special machines, and you can create beautiful effects like curls, nodules,
buttons, spirals, flames, or caterpillars.
Twisting multiple fine threads has several advantages over a single thick line:
The thread is stronger and more elastic. Exceeds the
thickest individual strands of approx. twenty%.
Textiles made with yarn have a more uniform appearance.
Textiles are becoming more and more practical.
In general, textiles are more durable and resistant to
abrasion.
Different types of yarn
The single yarn, called poplin yarn, is twisted from two
single yarns, that is, in the Z direction, that is, to the right. This thread
is then rotated again in the S direction, that is, to the left. There are many
variations for different purposes. Liable on the degree of firmness of the
twists, completely different fabrics result. The number of turns of the twisted
yarn also plays an important role. For solid fabrics, you need more complex twists.
For materials, you need softer twists.
Regular sewing threads are made of three single threads
twisted in the S direction, then turned together in the Z direction. In the
end, you have an excellent tear-resistant cable that looks round in cross-section.
Very twisted yarns are called "crepe yarns."
For example, the "Voile" fabric, which is used for
sheer curtains and delicate accent fabrics, consists of a Z-twisted fringe.
Here, however, the yarn as a whole does not rotate in the opposite direction.,
The S direction, but also in the Z direction! The result is a rugged cable, easily
wrinkled or, technically speaking, "kinks." On the one hand, the
finished fabric is wonderfully transparent and delicate but also robust to the
touch.
However, what is noteworthy is that the yarn is also turned in
the same direction, that is, in the Z direction. This results in a stiff string
that tends to twist. The fabric that comes out becomes transparent and robust
to the touch. To emphasize transparency, the yarn is aerated last, which means
that the tall fibers are burned. The result is the remarkably smooth and often
shiny surface of the veil.
Making the yarn
The turn is carried out in several stages. The first step is
to twist two or more individual threads on a "specialized spool."
Then comes the real twist, the repeated twist. To obtain more shine and
softness of the threads, the fibers and the hairs that stand out are burned. This
is called "burning."
This is how cotton is twisted
Three different methods can make cotton fabrics:
double twist
turning step
turn of the ring.
In the popular two-for-one twisting process, the thread is twisted twice with one turn of the shaft. So it's confused twice.
The process of twisting step by step and Tritec means that
it is turned three times. These substances are more likely to be needed in
industry and for particular purposes.
The ring twisting process is only used today in the field of
fancy twisting. Since there are too many knots here, these fabrics and fabrics
are usually found in the form of rough carpets or upholstery.
The difference between sewing thread, thread, and twine
Yarn is a collective term for all textile structures that
have a linear shape. A simple sewing thread is a canvas that has been woven
from individual fibers. It rotates around an axis.
If you twist such a thread together with other lines, the
