Introduction:

Fancy yarn:
• fancy yarns have a multithread structure
composed of three components: core,
effect, and binder. The effects like loops,
waves, knots, snarls, etc. are formed by the
effect yarn which unites with the core.
These two components form the effect
intermediate product that is fastened by
the binder component that fixes effects.
 Gimp yarn
• Structure of gimp yarn:
 Gimp yarn properties
1-COARSENESS: . the coarseness of the gimp
yarn has increased with the overfeed rate
2-RANDOMNESS:. an increase in overfeed
rate has made the yarn more irregular. The
randomness increases as we increased the
overfeed rate. This is because of the
increase in the irregularity of yarn with the
overfeed rate
 Gimp yarn properties
3-DISCOMFORT:discomfort increases as we
increase the overfeed rate. This is because
of lack in regularity in structural effect,
structure which is very chaotic evokes
uncomfortable feeling
4-COMPLEXITY: The complexity of the yarn
should increase as we increase the overfeed
rate because yarn should have more intricate
pattern with complex and curvy boundaries.

1-Inhernt parameter of gimp yarn

2-Structural (basic) Parameters of the

Gimp Yarn
 1-Inhernt parameter of gimp
yarn:
1-Number of events per meter
2- Height of the wave
3-Width of the wave
4- C.V% of events distribution
5-C.V% of height and length distribution
 1-Inhernt parameter of gimp
yarn:
Definition of inhernet Parameters:
Events: Events in the gimp yarn are single wavy projection
over the central core structure which has a height and a
width .
Number of Events/Meter: It is defined as the number of
wavy projection occurring over a predetermined length.
Height and Width of the wave: Height is defined as the
amplitude of the wave from the central core structure
made of the ground and binder yarn. Width is defined as
length between the start of the wave to end of the wave.
 2-Structural (basic)
Parameters of the Gimp Yarn:
1-count determination
Gimp yarn consists of a ground yarn, an
effect yarn and binder yarn. So any count
calculation consists of counts of these
three yarns.
• NF = n NE + NG + NB
• NF = Novelty yarn count in Tex
• NE = Effect yarn count in Tex
• NG = Ground yarn count in Tex
• NB = Binder yarn count in Tex
• n = A co-efficient depending on ∆V
• = 1 + ∆V
• ∆V = V EFFECT - V GROUND / V GROUND h
• V = velocity of corresponding rollers

One of the important characteristics of
novelty yarn which determines its
appearance and performance of novelty
yarn is twist
