Abstract

This paper presents a new formula of twist multiplier for plied yarns. The study concerned the influence of several parameters such as: Fiber parameters, the bottom twist, single yarn liear density of plies. The experiments carried out on Ring-Spun plied cotton yarns and theoretical analysis based on the idealized yarn structure. The results obtained with predicted formula show a constant twist multiplier for all plied yarns.
