Abstract

The aim of the present work is to study the cleanability of most Egyptian Cotton fibres. Five different cotton, with wide range of Shirley trash content, were used.
The experiments were done on different "Trutzschler" blowroom lines followed by "Toyoda" and "Rieter" carding machines.
The data presented show that the change of non-Limit(96), fibre length characteristics and the level of residual trash content as a function of machines arrangement. Also, the results of experimental Lines are compared for the same cotton fibres. In addition, the cleaning action of preparation Lines was investigated in terms of the properties of the cotton fibres itself and machine parameters.
