    The document discusses the simplex machine, which is used to convert sliver into roving. It has three main parts: the drafting system, which uses rollers to align and draft the fibers; the flyer, which inserts a slight twist; and the spindles, which wind the roved material onto bobbins. The input to the simplex machine is drawn sliver, which is drafted, lightly twisted, and wound onto roving bobbins as the output. The drafting and twisting process aligns and joins the fibers into a continuous strand of roving in preparation for further spinning into yarn.

    INTRODUCTION TO SPINNING

    ( SIMPLEX MACHINE )

    Lecture # 29-36 Simplex


    Mujahid Mehdi Abro

    Indus University Karachi.

    What is spinning???.....
    The process fiber to yarn is called

    as spinning.

    Fly Frame or Simplex

    What is roving???.....
    Roving: A loose assemblage of fibers drawn or

    rubbed into a single strand, with very little twist. In


    the modern cotton spinning system, it is an
    intermediate state between sliver & yarn.
    Roving frame: A machine used in yarn manufacture

    to reduce the size of sliver to roving, insert a slight


    amount of twist, & wind it on a package. The input of
    the material in this machine is drawn sliver and
    output of this machine is roving bobbin.

    INPUT MATERIAL: Drawn Sliver Can


    OUTPUT MATERIAL: Roving Bobbin

    OBJECTIVE OF ROVING (SIMPLEX) MACHINE:1. Drafting:-It is done by DRAFTING ROLLERS.


    2. Twisting:-It is done by FLYERS.
    3. Winding:-It is done by SPINDALS.
    4. Roving formation: Convert sliver into roving.

    DRAFTING SYSTEM
    By doing drafting process the fiber become parallel and

    align.
    Degree of harness of rollers for cotton is 65-75 degree.
    It is a main sector of making yarn.
    This work is done by pair of rollers.
    There are following drafting system in simplex
    machine.
    a) 3 over 3 drafting system
    b) 4 over 4 drafting system

    MATERIAL USED FOR ROLLERS:Bottom rollers are made by Steel.


    Bottom rollers are connected with gearing system

    (motor).
    Top rollers are made by leather or it can be synthetic
    rubber.
    Top rollers are used to decrease the slippage of drawn
    sliver through rollers.
    if system is 3 over 3 then there are 2 zones but if
    system is 4 over 4 then there are 3 zones.
    The total draft in simplex is usually 10-15.
    Thickness of apron is 1mm and made by leather or
    synthetic rubber.

    PART OF SIMPLEX MACHINE


    There are following parts of simplex machine.
    Creel portion ( grind drawn sliver )
    Drafting arrangement
    Cradles ( give proper tension )
    Spacers ( maintain sufficient distance to roving )

    Flyer ( used to insert twist to roving )


    Presser arm ( guide the roving from exit of flyer

    leg to package )
    Spindles ( it is a steel rod, used to move bobbin )
    Roving bobbin holder ( fix the roving bobbin )
    Roving rail ( moves up and down to wind roving

    on bobbin )

    Working principle of simplex


    machine
    The drawn slivers are placed in creel portion of simplex

    machine where the slivers are guided towards the


    drafting system. In simplex drafting system, single sliver
    is drafted such as to convert fiber strands into roving.
    This fiber strands roving now passes through cradle
    which gives the proper tension. The spacers are used
    to maintain sufficient distance during roving process.

    Working principle of simplex


    machine
    After drafting the fiber strands roving is passed through flyer

    where twist is inserted here the given twist is just to grip the fiber
    strands. In flyer, presser arm guide the roving from exit flyer lag to
    package .The steel rod known as spandles used to revolve the
    bobbin where bobbin is placed on roving bobbin holder. In the last,
    winding of roving on to the bobbin is possible due to roving rail.
    This roving rail moves up and down for proper winding on to the
    package and this motion or up and down is due to builder
    mechanism.
