Machine Description
Process definition:
Knitting is the interlocking or interloping of one or more yarns
through a series of loop. The length wise columns of stitches, corresponding to the warp
in woven fabrics, are called WALES, the cross wise rows of stitches, corresponding to
the filling in fabrics are known as COURSES. Filling knits (weft knit) are those fabrics in
which the courses are composed of a single strand of yarns, while warp knits are those in
which the Wales are composed of single strands of yarns. Gauge corresponds to the yarn
count in a knitted fabric, and is defined as the number of needles or yarns in ½ inches of
the fabrics. Higher the gauge, the more compact and fine the fabrics.
Process requirements:
In Texeurop (BD) Ltd. two types of machines are used for producing knitted fabrics.
These are:-
1) Circular knitting machine (Single& Double Jersey Machine).
2) Flat knitting Machine (Cuff & Collar).

NECESSARY INFORMATION
1. G.S.M.:
It is technical term that indicates the weight of the fabric per square meter.
2. Changing of G.S.M.:
The GSM of the fabric is change by altering the position of the tension pulley. If
pulley moves towards the positive direction then the GSM is decrease and in the reverse
direction GSM will increase.
7. Relation between yarn count and m/c gauge seen in different m/c.:

CHAPTER-VI
Collar & cuff are inspected visually under light box, any major & minor faulty
collar/cuff like having wrong ply, hole, needle lines, slubs, wrong design, first line
problem etc properly counted and recorded.
QUALITY ASSURANCE PROCEDURE:
Based on the sequence of grey inspection, the inspector serially numbers each
roll ensuring that all rolls having the knit card with complete details of the roll.
1) After production of fabric rolls of 8 to 25 kg, m/c operators cut them from
the cloth or batch roller and they are carried to inspection section by the helpers.
2) Almost four inspection workers are for every shift to check the fabric rolls.
For any kind of fault they are checked thoroughly. Skilled inspectors find them and
indicate them by the scissors in some cases.

CHAPTER VII
MAINTENANCE
Maintenance of machineries is very important for any type of
industries and it is a must for a knit composite mill. All machines and
machines parts of knitting, dyeing and garments are maintained with
extreme care. Because production quality and quantity, both depends on the
maintenance with regularity. Poly cotton Knit Fabrics Ltd. lead maintenance
with a troop of skilled mechanical fitters.
MAINTENANCE OF MACHINERY:
In the knitting floor of Texeurop(BD) Ltd. all circular and flat
knitting m/cs are maintained regularly and as necessity requirements. Here,
different type of maintenance of machinery, which is taken, different time on
the machineries.
ROUTINE:
1) Daily Maintenance: Every machine is taken maintenance
daily by the operators during production. When a production is started by the
operator after handing over from previous shift operator, he takes a routine
maintenance on the machine. He cleans the machine, assures yarn is fed to
all needles, cleans the eye pot of feeder, signal lamp sensor etc. Before a
while of a roll cut from batch or cloth roller, operator cleans needles,
cylinder base plate etc. All around of the machine are kept neat and clean as
if there is no dirt with yarn in the fabric.
Machine Cleaning:
For a good performance and functioning of the m/c, it is most
advisable to carry out the following operation:
Clean with compressed air jet the stitch formation area every time
the fabric roll is removed from the m/c, every 1500 working hours, a more
accurate cleaning action on cylinder cam boxes, cams, sinkers etc. with a
good detergent solution.

CHAPTER-XII
CONCLUSION
This training gives us actual picture about man, machine, material, methods and
market. We have earned the direct knowledge about the raw materials, actual running
condition of the m/c’s. Works technologist and administration.
This mill is a well planed with enough expansion facilities. Their exist are
wonderful employer and worker relation. Working environment for the labors is also
good.
During our training we visited administration section, store, boiler section,
generator room, compressor section etc. Everywhere we got cordial behavior from all
employees
Above all this training for 35 days in the Texeurop(BD) Ltd. Has give us a new
experience for practical life.
College of Textile Technology has given me the field to perform the industrial
attachment with Texeurop (BD) Ltd. This attachment seems to me as a bridge to
minimize the gap between theoretical and practical knowledge. Undoubtedly, this
attachment paved us the way to learn more about Textile Technology, industrial
practices, and industrial management and production process.
Besides this attachment gave us the first opportunity to work in an Industry and
acquainted us with the internal sight and sound of Textile Industries. I believe with all
these, the experience of the industrial attachment will help our future life as a Textile
Technologist.
