WEAVING CALCULATION & USEFUL FORMULAS

A number indicating the Mass per unit Length OR the length per unit mass of Yarn. Expression of the fineness of Yarn. There are three Systems to Calculate Count 1. Indirect System 2. Direct System 3. Universal System 1) 1 Lea = 120 yd 2) 7 Leas =1 hank 3) 1 Hank =840 yds or 768 meter 1. Indirect system Total No. of hanks per one pound is the Count of that yarn (Ne) i.e. if 10 hanks (10 x840 yds or 7680 meters) weighs one Pound or 0.454 Kg, then the Count of Yarn in indirect system 10s or 10Ne.This System widely used for staple fiber spun yarns like 100% Cotton, Viscose, Polyester fibers and their blends. Higher the yarn Count i.e Ne the yarn is finer

length in hanks(840 yards) count= weight in pound 2. Direct System Count = Weight in grams per 9000 meters of yarn in this system the yarn numbering is called as Denier (D). Higher the yarn number i.e Denier the yarn is coarser. 3. Universal System Count = No of grams per 1000 meters or per km of yarn. In this system count is called as Tex
