The fabric pressing performance and its role in predicting the appearance of men’s wool suit jackets

Pier Giorgio Minazio

A test method and instrumentation have been developed to facilitate the identification of potential appearance problems and for the development of improved fabric pressing…

Numerical evaluation of fabric construction parameters

Milena Ziberna‐Sujica, Andreja Pinteric

In the paper the theoretical fundamentals of numerical evaluation of the significant fabric construction parameters (fabric setting, working‐in and fabric weight) are represented…

Simulation of drape behaviour of fabrics

Hartmut Rödel, Volker Ulbricht, Sybille Krzywinski, Andrea Schenk, Petra Fischer

In this paper a model is presented for the calculation by approximation of a drape test standardized in the textile industry. As woven fabric is of low thickness compared with the…

Selection of suitable sewing needle using machine learning techniques

Zoran Stjepanovic, Helena Strah

Selection of suitable sewing needle is one of the most important parameters for ensuring an effective and fault‐free sewing process. This task requires good knowledge of basic…

Simulation of sewing machine mechanisms using program package ADAMS

Darja Žunič Lojen

Use of programme package ADAMS to simulate the sewing machine mechanisms is presented within this contribution. The simulation of needle bar mechanism was carried out. The…

Viscoelastic parameter determination for a yarn

Karl Gotlih

Here parameter determination of a chosen rheological model of a yarn on the basis of the experimental results is shown. The Kelvin‐Voigt linear viscoelastic model of a solid…

Investigation of operative logical movement groups in garment sewing

Zvonko Dragčević, Dubravko Rogale, Ljiljana Trgovec

The development of the equipment for investigating operative logical movement groups in garment production is presented. The characteristics of the equipment and software packages…

Study of the yield point of the thread

Jelka Geršak

In this work the study of yield point of thread and stress in flow point is shown. The determination of this point is done with the well‐known Meredith’s and Coplan’s…

Objective evaluation and prediction of properties of a fused panel

Simona Jevsnik, Jelka Gersak

The paper presents the objective evaluation and prediction of properties of a fused panel. A system for automatic knowledge acquisition from a given set of examples presents an…

Clothing engineering based on objective measurement technology

Sueo Kawabata, Masako Niwa

Engineered manufacturing of high quality garments has long been a target of textile technology. There are three main factors for manufacturing high quality garments. They are: the…

Suitability of nonwoven fusible interlining to the thin worsted fabrics

S.J. Kim, K.H. Kim, D.H. Lee, G.H. Bae

Functions of interlinings to the shell fabric are to improve the garment formability for a beautiful silhouette and elastic potential to the deformed fabric during wearing, and…

Portable computer measuring systems for automatic process parameter acquisition in garment sewing processes

Dubravko Rogale, Zvonko Dragčević

A measuring system for automatic process parameter acquisition in garment sewing operations has been presented. The measuring equipment is based upon the usage of a very powerful…

Influence of mechanical and physical properties of fabrics on cutting process

Rozalija Blekac, Jelka Gersak

The influence of mechanical and physical properties of fabrics on cutting process and the behaviours of fabrics during automatic cutting of a fabrics lay into garment pieces is…

The dynamics of fabric drape

Ron Postle, Jacqueline Rebecca Postle

The buckling behaviour of engineering materials has been researched extensively since the 1890s and more recently, thin shell theory has generalised the analysis to include…
