Mechanics and Calculations of Textile Machinery (Woodhead Publishing India)

Mechanics and calculations of textile machinery deals with the mechanics and dynamics of textile machines. The first chapter examines various types of power drives used in textile machinery. The second chapter discusses types of gears. The third chapter deals with the design aspect of cone drums used in spinning machines. The different types and design of cams used in ring frames and looms are discussed in the following chapters. The final part of the book focuses on energy calculations in textile machines, frictional forces and their calculation, clutches and brakes.* Chapters discuss types of power drives used in textile machinery, including belt and rope drives, and covers the design of cone drums in spinning * Different types of cams used in ring frames and looms are also discussed, as well as equations of motion and textile application * Energy, force and moments in textile machines is covered, before final chapters focus on energy calculations in textile machines, frictional forces and their calculation, clutches and brakes Content: Front matter, Pages i,iii Copyright, Page iv Dedication, Page v Preface, Page xiii 1 - Belts and rope drives, Pages 3-42 2 - Gears, Pages 43-56 3 - Design of cone pulleys in textile machines, Pages 57-65 4 - Types of cams in textile and their design, Pages 66-80 5 - Equations of motion and textile application, Pages 81-88 6 - Energy, force and moments in textile machines, Pages 89-97 7 - Friction in textile machines, Pages 98-111 8 - Clutches and brakes, Pages 112-122 9 - Sley movement, Pages 123-134 10 - Mechanics of shedding motion in weaving, Pages 135-144 11 - Loom tappet drives, Pages 145-151 12 - Analysis of shuttle movement in weaving machine, Pages 152-158 13 - Kinetics of shuttle picking, Pages 159-175 14 - Fundamentals of motion in textile machinery, Pages 179-219 15 - Calculations in fibre testing, Pages 220-228 16 - Calculations in the spinning process, Pages 229-271 17 - Calculations in yarn testing, Pages 272-291 18 - Calculations in weaving preparatory, Pages 292-310 19 - Calculations in the weaving process, Pages 311-320 20 - Calculations in the knitting process, Pages 321-333 21 - Calculations in fabric testing, Pages 334-346 22 - Statistics for quality control, Pages 347-360 Bibliography, Page 361 Index, Pages 362-366 This book deals with the mechanics and dynamics of texile machines.
