Weaving technology

The main commercial developments in the jute industry have been concerned with the spinning and weaving technology, and considerable improvements in productivity have also taken place. However, it is time now to consider what new innovations would assist the spread of jute materials into textile uses outside the traditional fields of packaging and carpets.

Another approach to create a compliant and elastomeric prosthesis is to design a multilayered structure. After all, the structure of a natural artery is multilayered, with each layer of the media and adventitia serving a different, clearly identifiable mechanical role. By harnessing the latest three dimensional textile knitting and weaving technologies, our laboratory is investigating the scope and limitations of this approach. ... 

Variations of weave architectures, deriving predominantly firom multilevel, multilayer compound structures will remove the potential of the N3DWS firom some markets. The N3DWS is a product defined by its end market its market application is established via the raw materials in yam form, and the configuration is limited by the weaving technology employed.

The current production parameters associated with weaving 0/90° yams on cmiven-tional weaving technology limits the production of the N3DWS within the 2D fabric plane. To allow the 2D-to-3D planar truss configuration to be applied to various end applications with consideration to fibre properties, in yam form, will allow creative adaptations of the generic procedure to produce a nodal product with a variety of... 

Besides flat solid fabric panels of uniform thickness, some more complex shapes have been produced and reported in the literature. For example, T-sections, 1- and L- profiles, variable thickness solid panels, and integral core stmctures with orthogonal or inclined webs (simulating box beams and tmss-like stmctures) have been demonstrated. Still, by the nature of traditional 2D weaving, where the warp and weft yam sets are mutually orthogonal in the fabric plane, the described multilayer weaving technology does not allow to introduce in-plane bias yams.

A contour fabric is shown in Figure 9.13. This fabric, made of carbon fibers and woven on an Iwer (rapier) loom, was made into a composite for a jet engine. Contour weaving technology was used for the circumferential frame applications. Contour fabrics take the shape of the contours they are based on, meaning that they fit well, not only on cylindrical surfaces with different diameters, but also on flanges and complex... 

Contour weaving technology can be used for stiffener and aircraft engine fan blade containment. Aramid fibers are usually used for the latter. The benefits of contour weaving technology are as follows ...
