QUALITY MANAGEMENT TECHNIQUES At Vardhaman vitality management techniques are given a lot of credit and are followed religiously. One of the major quality management technique followed by them is Total Productive &maintenance KTP&L. Total Productive &maintenance is a maintenance program which involves maintaining plants and shipment. The goal of the TP& program is to markedly increase production while$ at the same time$ increasing employee morale and job satisfaction. TP& brings maintenance into focus as a necessary and vitally important part of the business. Down time for maintenance is scheduled as a part of the manufacturing day and$ in some cases$ as an integral part of the manufacturing process. The goal is to hold emergency and non scheduled maintenance to a minimum. TP& starts with 9S. Problems cannot be clearly seen when the work place is norganiBed. +leaning and organizing the workplace helps the team uncover problems. &aking problems visible is the first step of improvement. to &otal Productive Maintenance instructions and methods have been put up in the actory to OR$ANI6ATIONA& STRUCTURE +hief &anaging Director MR2 S2P2 OS3A& 0xec tive Director MR2 SACHIT JAIN ViceCPresident K+ommercial H AdministrationL +hief &anager 0xec tive$ -fficers H Staff &anagers KAcco ntsF=/F+osti ngF+ommercialL 0xec tive$ -fficers H Staff Vice President KProd ctionL MR2VINEET PAN4E* Asst.

The main function of blow room is the opening$ cleaning and mixing of bale. The main identifiable impurities are being removed by the machines at the farming stage$ the process is called ginning. Ginning process removes the main impurities like seed coats$ hair$ stones$ plastic$ jute$ cords etc. After ginning cotton bales are formed in the compressed form. 0ach bale weighs approx <34 kg. Sometimes$ imported bales weigh even to ;44 kg. The blow room of >NITCI consists of 5 lines, LineCI and LineCII. 0ach line is formed by the lay down of bales in the form of stack one over another$ approximately 94 in number. &ixing can also be done at this stage by creating a lay down which consists of two or more varieties$ in the approximate ratios$ according to the endCprod ct re) irement.

It consists of a takeC p unit which is connected by vacuum. It has 5 types of rollers, < beater roller and 5 stripper roller. The 5 stripper rollers consist of metallic blades on its surface$ which penetrate inside the bales for better grip on both the sides. In between are the main rollers i.e. the beater rollers$ which again have got spikes on its s rface. Its main f nction is to open the compressed bales and p l u c k o u t the fibers$ so that they can be s cked by the pne matic action.

This$ in this way the material is further cleaned. MAXI FLOW: &an fact rer, Tr tBschler The material is dropped in the machine by gravity t h r o u g h the +ondenser andadvances with the beater action. The d st and contamination is separated and falls down. The material is removed from the maxi flow with the help of s ction from the maxi machines. SEPARATOR: &an fact rer, Tr tBschler =eavy Particle Separator is simple e) ipment working on aeroCdynamics principle.

MPM: &an fact rer, Tr tBschler The m ltiCmixer ens res a good blending at the beginning of the spinning process which is essential for a niform distrib tion and representation of all fibre components into the yarn crossCsection. This needs to be achieved d ring the spinning processes as it cannot be achieved by the later processes alone. Proper blending avoids variation in r nning conditions$ yarn strength$ niformity and dye takeC p. The m ltiCmixer is s ally available in 6$ 8 or 7 chambers. In Vardhman$ there were two lines one containing the 8 chamber &P& and the other containing an 7 chamber &P&. CVT- &an fact rer, Tr tBschler This is another machine which is sed for cleaning of the material. First of all$ the feed roller feeds the material inside the machine. Then it passes through three spikes beater of increasing spike intensity$ which carries o t the opening. It has a colo r contamination sorter K++SL. Gidth of the machine, <844mm +apacity, 844C 744 kg hr SECUROMAT: &an fact rer, Tr tBschler Foreign fibre detection takes place at the end of the blowroom line and directly before the cards$ where the opening degree of the fibres has reached a maxim m val e$ the foreign parts$ however$ still exist in a coherent form. The separation of the foreign parts is effected by means of ;5 compressed air noBBles K<4L distrib ted over the total working width of <844 mm$ which can be individ ally controlled by pne matic valves$ in fact exactly at the point where a foreign part is located on the s rface of the needle roll. CARDING Manufacturer Lakshmi reiter machines :10 Manufacturer:trutzschler The carding process essentially involves the opening of fibre aggregates by working between two closely spaced surfaces covered with inclined wires. The main objects of carding are, ➢ ➢ ➢ ➢ ➢ To carry further process of fibers opening to a state of fibre individualization To remove neaps$ tiny limps of fibers To deliver a continuous sliver for f u r t h e r processes. To remove impurities from the material by individual fibre separation. To enable parallelization of fibers. The carding machine is supplied with cotton flocks through FBK ducts continuously. The cotton then traverses through the rollers. The material is fed inside with the help of feed roller which is located above the feed plate. The feed roller is followed by the lickerCin cylinder. There is a lickerCin under casing and back plate below and in front of the rollers respectively. under casing is a perforated plate which is responsible for collection of the waste removal from the card. *sack plate is positioned between the lickerCin and cylinder. Front plate is positioned between cylinder and the doffer. *oth have spikes and perform the same function as that of the set of cylinder and flats. Flats are clothing on the rollers which is in the form of spiked belt. There are <45 flats of which about 65 are in working position at time of contact with cylinder. cylinder moves very fast as compared to the flats. Due to this movement$ the best fibres are straightened$ made parallel and opening and cleaning is performed. The back plate and front plate reduces the loading on the cylinder. The voids between the cylinder$ clicker and cylinder$ doffer are thus covered by front and back plates. The cylinder is having the main function of opening and cleaning the fibers. The main function of the differ is to collect the fibers from the cylinder and deliver them in the form of a web. The function of the clicker is breaking and opening of thetuftsof cotton and pass them onto the cylinder without retaining any of them. To get optimum performance from the various elements of a card$ it is essential to use the right type and right combination of wire clothing. The metallic wire particulars which could influence the carding process are, wire width$ wire point density$ tooth angle$ shape and height. +arding performance can be improved by increasing the number of teeth cross wise along the width of the card. This has led to the development of finer rib wires. The diferclothed with a wire which has a higher trapping and holding power than the cylinder wire. Thus it has a greater point density than cylinder wire.

Its use in the production of medium$ medium fine and fine yarns enables a positive effect to be exerted primarily on the following yarn characteristics, ➢ ➢ ➢ ➢ ➢ yarn evenness yarn strength +leanliness Smoothness Visual appearance 0limination of short fibers produces an improvement mainly in the staple length of the fibre$ but it also affects the fineness of the raw material. Since nil is on average finer than the original raw material$ the micromanage value of the combed sliver is slightly higher than that of the feed stock. The various machines used are, &an fact rer, Lakshmi It is the preparatory process for combing. The basic p rpose of this machine is to mix different card can slivers$ for homogeneo s mixing to ens re the fibers. It is niformity among sed to convert the leading hooks into trailing hooks.

The waste of coming is termed as @noil @. The lap is passed through a top comb which has got 58 needles or pins per cm. The functionof this top comb is to catch the short fibers out of the lap. It is followed by another brush roller which consists of plastic bristles on its surface to catch the fibers flying around. After the combing action$ the laps pass through three sets of rollers$ of which top ones are covered with rubber and bottom ones are made of steel. The material then passes through a condenser acting as a guide and calendar roller to form a sliver. Top clearer is present in the machine to take care of the fly being generated.

This process ensures that the sliver increasesin ➢ ➢ length and the mass per nit length is decreased. Twisting it is the process where the a t t e n d e d sliver is given rotational twists by means of the rotatory movement of the spindle Ro0ing, it is the oPTIMUM of the speed frame. It takes a highly r e d u c e d thickness mass per nit l e n g t h in comparison of the sliver. The roving is stored on bobbins and these forms the feed package for the ring frame. The existence of the speed frame is justified by the fact that the sliver cannot be fed directly to the ring frame$ firstly due to the very high draft requirement at ring frame and secondly$ due to the very large space requirement in ring frame section. Therefore$ the need for the speed frame is to impart draft to the sliver to prepare it for the ring frame and twist to provide strength to roving. &ain parts of speed frame, ➢ C(eel – =ere$ the cams carrying the D.F. sliver are being placed. The f nction of creel is to let the sliver reach the drafting Bone$ witho t any obstr ction the drafting Bone$ witho t any obstr ction.

Crochet Machine HOLLOW SPINDLE FANCY TWISTER - EHP MACHINE 0=P machine is a m ltiCp rpose machine which is capable of prod cing most of the effects. Loop$ caterpillar$ bo cle$ sl b and knop are some of them. These effects are created by setting the speed of the drafts according to the effect re) ired. For example$ for a loop effect$ the speed of the draft for base yarn wo ld be lesser in comparison to the speed of the draft of the effect yarn. This way more yarn is wo nd aro nd the base yarn in a shorter period of time creating loops. <ollow Spindle Fancy &wister ESP MACHINE In this machine$ one yarn comes straight passing thro gh the hollow spindle$ which is known as the base yarn$ while the other yarn which is the effect yarn is wrapped aro nd the base yarn by a twister which moves aro nd the base yarn. SE#UIN MACHINE In this machine$ se) ins are added to the base yarn one by yarn or at reg lar intervals that are set depending on the re) irement. Garlands of se) ins are loaded on the machine while the base yarn is fed from one side. -nce the se) ins have been attached to the effect yarn it is twisted along with the base yarn and finally wo nd on a cone.
