Özet

End splicing is necessary to ensure continuity in the production of yarn from staple fibres. This process is essential for maintaining the integrity and quality of yarns during manufacturing and subsequent usage in textile products. For this purpose, the influence of various splicing variables on yarn splicing efficiency was analysed, and several splicing methods were compared. The article focuses on identifying optimal splicing parameters to improve the performance of spliced yarns. The research investigates several splicing variables such as over-lap length, blast duration and splicing time for the pneumatic splicing method, and untwisting time, drafting and retwisting time for the mechanical splicing method to join the yarn (100 tex) ends. The performance of the yarns was assessed based on retained splice elongation (RSE) and retained splice strength (RSS). Statistical analysis was performed to determine the significance of variations in splicing variables. The results indicated that both RSE and RSS increased when the value of the splicing variables (parameters) increased for each method. The research found that variations in splicing variables significantly impact the characteristics of the spliced yarn. The study contributes significant insights into optimizing splicing techniques to improve yarn performance in the spinning industry.
