    Open end spinning is a technology for creating yarn without using a spindle. In this process, a fiber sliver is separated into single fibers which are brought by an air stream to a collecting surface where they are drawn off and twisted into yarn. Unlike other spinning processes, open end spinning interrupts the continuous flow of fibers by opening them into individual fibers before an air stream transports them to the collecting surface where they are recollected to form a new fiber strand and yarn. This process allows internal stresses in the fibers to relax and enables high rotation speeds for imparting twist to the yarn.

    Open end spinning or open-end spinning

    is a technology for creating yarn without


    using a spindle
    It is also known as break spinning or rotor
    spinning.
    In this process the fiber sliver is separated
    into single fibers and in which the
    separated fiber material is brought by an
    air stream to a collecting surface from
    which it is drawn off while being twisted

    In all other spinning processes, an uninterrupted stream of fibers proceeds


    continuously, but with gradual attenuation, from the feedstock to the takeup package. In open-end spinning, this flow of fibers is interrupted, the
    fiber strand being opened into individual fibers at a predetermined
    position, usually by means of an opening roller, followed by airborne
    fiber transport. This interruption or break in the fiber flow is physically
    achieved by increasing fiber speed locally to very high levels (up to 100
    m/s), so that according to the equation of continuity the number of
    fibers in the cross-section drops to such low values that the fibers lose
    contact with each other.

    This enables twist to be imparted merely by


    rotation of the yarn end, which in turn leads to
    a significantly higher potential rotation speed.
    However, the break in fiber flow also leads
    directly to one of the most important and
    difficult tasks in open-end spinning, namely to
    control the configuration of the individual
    fibers, airborne at high speed, and the need to
    re-collect these fibers without losing their
    elongated configuration, which is essential to
    the formation of a new fiber strand. This very
    tricky problem of open-end spinning can be
    dealt with schematically as shown

    The fiber material is deposited on a collecting


    surface moving in the direction of thread draw-off, is
    then twisted and is continuously drawn off said
    collecting surface in form of a thread
    The single fibers are fed upon the collecting surface
    in the direction of said collecting surface's
    movement, whereby an alignment of the fibers on
    the collecting surface takes place.

    In conventional spinning ,the fiber supply is reduced


    to the required mass per unit length by drafting &
    then consolidated into a yarn by the application of
    twist.
    There is no opportunity for the internal stresses
    created in the fibers during drafting to relax
    In open end spinning, the fiber supply is reduced, as
    far as possible , to individual fibers, which are then
    carried forward on an air-stream as free fibers.

    Contd.
    This permits internal stresses to be relaxed & gives
    rise to the term free fiber spinning
    This enables twist to be imparted by rotation of the
    yarn end.
    These fibers are then progressively attached to the
    tail or open end of already formed rotating yarn.
    Thus the continuously formed yarn has only to be
    withdrawn & taken up on a cross-wound package

    There is no roving stage or re-packaging on an


    auto-coner.
    This system is much less labour intensive and faster
    than ring spinning with rotor speeds up to
    140,000rpm.
    Typical yarn count range: 6s to 30s
    Fibers: (1) Fine (2) Strong

    With open end spinning the yarn has


    individual fibers that are not arranged
    as uniformly as in wrap or ring spun
    yarns.
    Most of the fibers are generally
    parallel, but with lots of crisscrossing,
    while some fiber irregularly wraps
    around the main bundle.

    The disadvantage of open-end spinning is that it is


    limited to coarse counts.
    Consequently cloth made from open-end yarn
    having a 'fuzzier' feel and poorer wear resistance.
