Introduction
2. Selection of Raw material: Raw material is a relative term. The raw material of spinner is the fibre.
The raw material of the weaver is yarn and that of the finisher is cloth. There may be variation in their
quality.
–Fibres may be vary in length, Colour, fineness, and strength etc.
–Yarns may vary in count, strength, twist (TPI)
– Fabrics may vary in threads per inch. EPI, PPI, and shrinkage
– The testing of fibers is generally not so important when dealing with MMF because they are supplied
to customer’s requirements and their properties including length, colour and fineness are determined
and controlled during their manufacture.

Types of testing
Usually two types as follows-
– Routine process testing: When testing results is obtained immediately after testing is
done.
– Quality record testing: Keeping the record of test results in order to perform various
tasks.
Relation between testing and quality control
–For fiber: Identification, fiber length, strength, trash, neps, maturity, fineness,
color (yellowness), Reflectance (Rd), MR, MC etc.
–For yarn: Linear density, strength, twist, hairiness, evenness & irregularity etc.
–For fabric: Length, width, weight, strength, thickness, crimp, air & water
permeability, crease, Drapability, Handle, Abrasion resistance, comfort properties,
color fastness test, dimensional properties, resiliency test etc, pilling, water
absorbency, shrinkage, EPI & PPI, fabric construction, Thermal properties etc.
Factors affecting test results**
The following factors may affect the test results of tested materials-
a. Sampling
b. Atmospheric condition during test
c. Method of test
d. Testing instruments used
e. The efficiency of technician
