23—SOME OBSERVATIONS ON THE DRAFTING FORCES OF COTTON AND RAYON-STAPLE SLIVERS

Abstract
This paper deals with some measurements of the force required to draft cotton and rayon-staple slivers. The effects of draft, compactness of the sliver, direction and speed of drafting, and fibre properties upon the drafting force are discussed, and a few experiments on the correlation between drafting force and drafting irregularity are described.
