CHAPTER 1
1.1 INTRODUCTION
Internship training will provide an industrial exposure to the student as well as to develop their
career in the high tech industrial requirements. Internship training initially get counseled in order to
emerge out their interest in various departments and what are all the basic concepts on the domain.
The internship training is totally different from the class environment internship training is the
strategy undertake by students who have interested in gaining the practical knowledge. Internship
training is an opportunity to understand the organizational structure, the major department, flow of
information and various functions in an organization.
Internship training are individualized and tailored to the needs and interests of each student in the
program. As part of the internship training experience, students are expected to take and active role in
finding an appropriate internship for themselves. This can be a significant benefit to the employer as
experience interns often need little or no training when they begin regular employment.
Internship is an essential part of education for student’s development. It gives an real time project
experience to student who are otherwise confirmed to the mostly theoretical education in college.
Through Internship the students can relate the academic knowledge to the real world application
situations. Quite often in technology education. It helps to observation of corporate functioning and
industrial profile, history of the organization performance, solutions which are to be solved in the
minimum duration of time. Internship helps a student to learn new skills and to gain more knowledge
on the subject.

CHAPTER 2
Textile Industry plays a major role in the Indian economy. it contributes 14% to industrial
production and 4% to GDP. with over 45 million people involved, it is one of the largest source of
employment generation in the country. the textile industry accounts for nearly 15% of India’s total
exports. Indian weaving industry has traditionally been one of the most thriving sectors for mass
employment. abundant supply of raw materials and availability of cheap labor have been major
contributor to its success. India is the only country that still creates hand-made fabrics and is able to
maintain its cultural heritage. the world has lost the hand-weaving and loom process, along with the
natural and organic processes of fabric manufacturing. mill-made fabrics largely dominate fashion
markets, with China as the biggest example.
Modern spinning mills are mainly built around open end spinning techniques using rotors or ring
spinning techniques using spindle. In 2009 there were 202,979,000 ring spinning spindles installed
worldwide, with 82% of these being in Asia or Oceania and 44% being within China. A spinning mill
opened raw cotton bales and cleaned the cotton in the blowing room. The cotton staples are carded into
lap and straightened and drawn into roving which is spun using either a mule or ring frame. The yarn
can be doubled and processed into thread, or prepared for weaving.
There are so many cotton mills are available in India. But recently many small scale and medium
scale spinning mills are winding up especially in Tamil Nadu. Many industrialist struggle with
technological up gradation and also the cotton price hike one of the reason for slow down of business.
Occupational hazards are more in spinning mills, hence the people were hesitate to work. Government
should take any initiation towards the price of cotton candy, the opportunity of growth is possible.

2.2 INDUSTRY STRUCTURE
Indian spinning industry is one of the biggest in the world with around 50 million spindles.
Installed ability of rotors in the country is around 8 lakh. India has the second highest spindleage after
China and contributes to about 25 per cent divide in globe trade of cotton yarn. Cotton continues to be
the leading fiber addicted by the textile industry. Cotton textiles contribute to over 60 per cent of
Indian textile exports. India is biggest yarn exporter in world and mainly exports to China, Korea
Republic, Bangladesh, Egypt, Taiwan, Hong Kong, Turkey, Japan, Israel, European Union and
Mauritius. India produces yarn of wide range of counts, which varies from two to 120s Ne and mainly
dominated by cotton yarn. Other than 100per cent cotton yarn, cotton is spun with other fibres to
manufacture blended yarns. Some of the major blended yarns exported from this country are
polyester/cotton, cotton/viscose and acrylic/cotton Small Scale Spinning Mills an addition to the
spinning and amalgamated mills in the organized sector, of late, great number of tiny scale spinning
mills(the spinning mills having 6000 or less spindles are termed as small scale spinning mills) have
come up, predominantly in Tamil Nadu in and around Coimbatore. There were 1035 SSI with an
installed capacity of 4286451 spindles and 130480 rotors in 2012-13. It has provided employment to
41122 persons.
The textile industry in south India Ltd traditional mills in different centres but a determined
expansion took place only in Coimbatore area in Tamil Nadu, because of the availability of amenities
like moderate climate growing of cotton, abundant labour, good transport facility both by road and rail
and adequate power from pykara hydel station. The first mill in Coimbatore namely the Coimbatore

Kaleeswaran mills ltd in 1907 and by the Sri Ranga vilas ginning, spinning and weaving mills ltd, in
1922 and the Radha Krishnan mills ltd in 1923.

These mills depended on power from steam. In about 1933 Pykara hydro electric power was
made existing at cheap rate and this gave an momentum to the 63 starting of more mills. The south
India mill owners Association was founded in 1933. The organization can take real pride for the steps
in had taken for establishing a textile research institute in the south (SITRA) at Coimbatore. The
association has been on behalf of the mills in general matters, individually and cooperatively. For any
important matters, mills typically lookup to the parent body for help. If has been co. operating with the
state and central Govt. and has responded to the invitations from them for nominate representative to
the various committees and bodies selected from time to time.

CHAPTER 3
Customer centricity is at the core of Ravi Mills and it is this belief that has led the business to
build long-term relationships. Ensuring a positive customer experience, making available goods and/or
services that are of top-notch quality is given prime importance. They are leading manufacturers that
houses sizing or weaving machinery for production of yarn or cloth from cotton. The business came
into existence in 2011 and has, since then, been a known name in its field. It has an annual turnover of
around 25-50 crores.
The company involves in sizing of cotton and weaving. The company has engaged a careful
team of quality analysts, who conducts stringent quality check throughout the process of production.
There are 80 workers who constantly support the production 24/7. The business strives to make for a
positive experience through its offerings. The cotton is converted into cloth in the process and supplied
to various parts of Tamil Nadu for further conversion of the cloth into end user product. They deal
with many methodologies and efforts are directed towards the clients, which has made them
instrumental in offering them with the best quality.
Sizing is the process of applying an adhesive coating on the surface of the yarn. Sizing is
applied into the yarn mainly to improve the weave ability of warp yarn by making it more resistant to
action of weaving i.e. absorption, friction, tension & flexing. It also maintains good fabric quality by
reducing hairiness, weakness & by increasing smoothness, absorbency of yarn. The most other
features of the sizing is change of various physical properties.

CYCLE OF PRODUCTION PROCESS

4.2 PRODUCTION CYCLE
SIZING MACHINE
Sizing machines are usually defined by the method by which the yarn is dried.
Hot air drying
Cylinder drying
1
Hot air drying
In hot-air sizing machines, the wet warp is dried using hot air in an enclosed chamber through
which the warp sheet is passed. The yarn is dried on all sides at the same time rather than on one side
as in the case of a cylinder drying machine. The air is heated either by electric coil or steam. One
drawback of the hot-air sizing machine is its lack of heat efficiency. It is claimed that the fuel costs
for hot-air drying are at least 40% higher than for equivalent drying by heated cylinders. Also hot-air
drying takes up more space and takes longer to cool down. Therefore, the conduction method using
cylinder drying is most commonly used.
Cylinder drying
As the wet warp sheet leaves the size box, it is passed around the drying cylinders which are
heated with steam. The warp is pressed against the surface of the heated cylinder under pressure which
is controlled largely by the tension in the warp sheet. The drying capacity of the sizing machine is
defined as the weight of water which the machine is capable of evaporating in a given time. About 75–
80% of the total energy used in the sizing process is consumed in drying the wet warp sheet loaded
with size paste.

WEAVING MACHINE
Warp preparation is a crucial step for fabric formation. It involves the processing of spun and
synthetic yarns. The company provides a complete range of fabric-forming machinery from
renowned world leaders. Its hi-tech fabric forming solutions enable high-speed, cost-effective
production, highest reliability for efficiency, quality, productivity, and flexibility of your weaving
mill, both in standard fabric and technical woven fabrics.
1
Weaving can be summarized as a repetition of these three actions, also called the primary
motions of the loom.
Shedding: where the warp threads (ends) are separated by raising or lowering Heald frames
(heddles) to form a clear space where the pick can pass
Picking: where the weft or pick is propelled across the loom by hand, an air-jet, a rapier or
a shuttle.
Beating-up or battening: where the weft is pushed up against the fell of the cloth by the reed.
Every day, weaving installations must meet new market requirements in terms of new yarns
and increasing weaving speeds. Ravi Mills has accepted this challenge with its complete line of shed
forming machines and weaving preparation systems without making concessions in terms of quality
and Innovation. For each application and for each textile-related problem it offers the appropriate
solution. This applies to all weaving mills, all types of weaving machines and all weft insertion
systems. In general, weaving involves using a loom to interlace two sets of threads at right angles to
each other: the warp which runs longitudinally and the weft (older woof) that crosses it. One warp
thread is called an end and one weft thread is called a pick.

WARNING INDICATORS
In the above-mentioned picture, the warning indicators glow as per the types of errors in the
Weaving machine.
Yellow Light – Indicates if the machine stops because of a cloth getting detached in
the continuous process.
Blue Light – Indicates if a batch got completed and the machine is free for production.

This is the process in which the cotton is converted into threads and then been sent to be
converted into fabrics. The fibres are also subjected to physical processes such as carding, drawing
that align the fibres in a rope form. Once they are in this form, the fibres can be drawn into smaller
and smaller diameter yarns, while applying some twist to give your yarn, of the desired count. If you
have a 2ply yarn then this is two yarns twisted together.

CHAPTER 5
WEAKNESS
Investment in advanced technological means of production requires some highly trained
personnel which come at a cost for the company due to the scarcity of trained machine operators and
maintainers. Changing global prices on cotton products might affect production costs resulting to extra
costs for the company.
OPPORTUNITIES
The growing fashion industry directly affects the textile industry which is an advantage for the
cotton industry and cotton products. The favorable government laws on Foreign Direct Investment are
favorable for the growth of the cotton industry. The growth of the domestic and foreign market for
cotton products is sufficient opportunity for growth and expansion of the company. Availability of
good cotton and at favorable prices around the plant reduces on cost of raw material acquisition. The
growing global need for cotton has led to product diversification and development.
THREATS
Balance between quality and pricing is a challenge but this is slowly being controlled by the
growing reputation that Indian cotton is of good quality. High interest rates have made it difficult to
access bank loans for expansion. High cost of power and other indirect tax tariffs for raw materials has
also increased the cost of production for the company.

CHAPTER 6
RAVI MILLS company is specialized in weaving and sizing cotton into plain fabrics and then
sends the end product to further processes of dying and printing. There are more than 80 employees
working in the company with safety measures and are provided with proper wages for the same.
The company has established a firm in which continuous production strategy is used. The
company is vibrant in terms of production of cotton fabrics and its wider production area has made it
employ 110 machines and all of them are in use 24/7. The business has a better scope as clothing is
one of the major aspects in daily needs. In this case, this manufacturing company is under the able
guidance of mentors, and I have been able to garner repute in the domain.
My suggestion and recommendation for the company is to reduce the stocking of cotton waste
in the Industry itself because this takes a lot of space inside the production area. The company can
increase and develop the working area and employ more machinery so that production will be
increased and can yield more profit. Other than this the efficiency in production is good and workers
monitor and supervise the machines at regular intervals and the production is in good flow.
