Industrial Attachment Introduction
Introduction :
Industrial attachment is the first step to professional life of student, especially of technical Side. It’s an indispensable part of study a practically running processing technology of an industrial unit for a student .In our university , processing machines are not in continuous running condition, so it would only provide demonstration of mechanical features & processing technology of the material in accomplishment of the theory there of but not of the situational variables to achieve practical knowledge. So two months industrial attachment program in a dyeing mill was arranged for us.
Textile education can’t be completed without industrial training. Because this industrial attachment program minimizes the gap between theoretical and practical knowledge and make me accustomed to industrial environment. I got an opportunity to complete two month long industrial training in M M Knitwear Ltd , which is a 100% export, oriented composite Knit Dyeing Industry. It has well planned & equipped fabric and Knit dyeing-finishing units in addition to facilitate Knitting and Knit wear manufacturing.
The rationale behind the existing structure and future expansion of M M Knitwear Ltd is to capture value-added at each stage of the textile manufacturing process.
Despite Bangladesh’s lack of indigenous cotton production capacity, M M Knitwear Ltd has leveraged Bangladesh’s labor cost advantage and export competitiveness to the Maximum.

3.4 Description of Machinery
3.4.1 Working principle of dyeing machinery
The dyeing m/c’s has a large tank where the fabric is loaded through out the nozzle. It has a good arrangement of water line (in let & out let), steam line, heat exchanger, liquor circulating motor and a chemical dosing tank. The loaded fabrics are circulating through out the nozzle continuously and the dyeing take place by the supplying of dye liquor by the liquor circulating motor when the fabric is passed over the drawing reel. It has also a control panel, which automatically control the production parameter. But it should firstly set manually. In case of low temperature machine it can raise up the temperature only

3.4.2 Working principle of finishing machinery
3.4.2.1 Slitting machine
The slitting m/c has 4 units - initial squeezer, de-twisting, slitter and padder. After dyeing completed and falling of water from fabric the fabric is fed in slitting m/c. So it is necessary to remove some water initially for the case of further processing in this m/c. The initial squeezer does this work. The de-twisting unit removes twists that may present in tubular rope form fabric. This unit has 3 de-twisting rollers, one rotation drum and 2 feeler rollers with sensors. By these rollers it detects twist in fabric and removes by rotating rope fabric in opposite direction. Before slitting there is a blower which blows air to open the tubular fabric & makes it easy to pass over cigger. The cigger can be extended in circumference and opens the tubular fabric in full circumference. Slitting is done by using open mark detecting golden eye by around knife. Then the fabric passes

3.4.2.2 Squeezing/Dewatering machine
After completing the dyeing process from the dyeing m/c then the fabrics are ready for de-watering. In de-watering m/c tubular fabrics are mainly processed. There is a magnetic sensor which scene the twist of the fabric and its direction and turn the fabric in opposite direction to remove twist automatically. Here dewatering is performed De-watering is the process to remove the water from the fabric completely by squeezing and it is done by the padder. A suitable expander is used before the fabric is passed through the nip of the padders, which expands the fabric flat wise and adjust the width. The expander width is adjusted as S/J- 20%, PK-25%, Int.-35%, Lacoste-40% wider than the required width. There is a pair of rubber coated padder, where water is removed from fabric when passed through the nip of it.Normally squeezer contain single or double padders where, - One for removing water and - Other for applying finishing chemicals such as softener.But this finishing is done only for the tubular fabric. Open widths knitted fabrics are applied finishing treatment later in stenter.

3.4.2.3 Dryer After de-watering the fabric is passed through the dryer. This machine contains two chambers. Two mesh endless conveyors are placed lengthwise to the chamber named conveyor net and filter net, each chamber contain a burner, which supply hot air .This hot air is guided through the ducting line by suction fan .There are nozzles placed in between filter net and conveyor net. When the fabric pass on the conveyor net, hot air is supplied to the wet fabric to dry it. There are exhaust fan which such the wet air and deliver to the atmosphere through the ducting line.The speed of the dryer depends on the temperature of the m/c & the G.S.M of the fabric. If the m/c temperature is high then m/c speed also high and the m/c temp. is low then m/c speed also low . The vibration speed of the m/c for heavy fabric is 730 m/min and normal fabric is 480 m/min.

3.4.2.4 Stenter machine
Stenter Machine is generally used to finish the open fabric. This stenter machine consists of eight chambers; each contains one burner, two blowers, two ducting line, nozzles and suction fan attach with the suction line. The burner produces hot flue gases which guided though the ducting line by the help of blower. There are nozzles placed above and bellow the rail. When the fabric passed through the rail, then hot air is sprayed to the above and bellows the fabric with the help of nozzle. The hot air is circulating in the chamber and the moisture in the fabric is evaporated, which leave the chamber with the help of suction fan through the ducting line. Temperature of each chamber can control automatically by

controlling the intensity of burner. Generally lower temperature is maintained the first and last chamber then other chambers.
The speed of the fabric is maintained according to the moisture content of the fabric. After passing the fabrics to all the chambers, the fabric is collected for compaction.
Fig: Passes diagram of senter machine
The performance of the stentering range depends on proper introduction of the cloth into the machine. The finer the fabric is being processed, the greater the significance of the correct, crease free and fault free fabric introduction. In stenter m/c the fabric first passed through different rollers including weft straightening device, uncurling device for proper feeding of the fabric into the machine. Then it passed through the selvedge detector which detect the selvedge and adjust the rail for proper gripping the fabric in the pin arrangement. This stenter m/c consists of both pin and clip arrangement. The fabric first grip by pin and gust before entering the chamber, pin are locked by clip arrangement. To maintain proper dimension of the fabric, length wise overfeed and width wise tension is given to the fabric.

3.4.2.5 Compactor machine
Southeast University Page | 38
Industrial Attachment Machine Description
The main object of compactor is to make the fabric surface smooth, to control the residual shrinkage, G.S.M and if required fabric width also. To control the residual shrinkage the fabric is previously shrinkage artificially by gathering of loops of knitted fabric and it is set by heat and pressure. In tube & open compactor, the dried knitted fabric is face to steam when it passed through the Teflon coated conveyor belt. When a cotton fabric absorbs water, it swells and shrinks (particularly in length direction) because the absorbed water allows the cellulose chains to move relative stain free position. Then the fabric is passed through the expander. This m/c contains two compaction units to compact both side of the tubular fabric. Each unit contains a hot rotating cylinder, blanket which rotate in contact with the cylinder and Teflon cover .while passing the expander roller, the fabric is over feeded. The fabric is compacted with the pressure of blanket and Teflon cover while passing through the hot cylinder .Due to compaction stitch length is reduced. Then the fabric is passed through the counting device .Before packing, the fabric is inspected carefully.

6.4 PROBLEMs ENCOUNTERED IN DYEING
Uneven Dyeing
1. It can be caused due to rapid addition of dyes and chemicals. For this purpose the dosing of soda ash should be maintained properly.
2. Pressure difference.3. Over loading in the m/c.
4. Yarn lot mixing.5. Improper control of temperature.6. Less amount of leveling agent.7. Improper pretreatment.
Uneven Shade in Rope to Rope
1. Improper rope length in each chamber.2. Improper fabric flow speed in each nozzle.
Off Shade
1. Improper M: L ratio.2. Lower amount of auxiliaries.3. Improper mixing of dyestuffs.
Dye Spots
This is most common fault caused by operator not correctly mixing and thoroughly dissolving dyestuffs in the right amount of water.
Batch to Batch Shade Variation
If any of parameters of dyeing are changed then it will produce problems in batch to batch consistency. In order to avoid this defect the following steps should be followed-
1. Maintain the same liquor ratio.2.Check that the fabric has the same dye affinity.3. Use the same standard program procedures for each batch.4. Making sure that the operators add the right bach of chemicals at the same time
& temperature in the process.5. Check the water supply daily especially ph, hardness & Na2CO3 content.
Southeast University Page | 63
Industrial Attachment Quality Assurance System
Crease Mark
Crease marks are produced due to the lower concentration of anti creasing agent and improper cooling rate (defective cooling gradient). This is encountered by increasing the concentration of anti creasing agent and proper adjustment of cooling rate.
Running Marks
Running marks are frequently related to the material construction and are caused by poor opening of the fabric rope.
1. Reducing the machine load and running at a slightly higher nozzle pressure, or using the next largest available nozzle size, may also help.
2. Either pre setting or pre relaxation of the fabric before dyeing can avoid this problem.
3. Running and crack marks can also be a result of incorrect process procedures. A higher fabric speed, combined with slower rates of rinse and cooling will often correct the problem.
4. Care should be taken to check that bath draining temperatures are not very high especially viscose blends are involved.
5. Shock cooling of static material will also cause crack marks.
Intensive Foaming
In case of intensive foaming, which is caused when, the pumps try to pump a mixture of air and water. This resets in the loss of nozzle pressure & floating of flake. If the foaming is severe it is better to drop the bath & restart the process, after adding an anti foaming agent to the new bath.
Patchy Dyeing
It is caused, if dye solution is not correct and also scouring is improper.
Miscellaneous Problems
Batch to batch processing may vary due to the improper calculation of dyes and chemicals and improper strength of salt soda and H2O2 etc. Beside hardness of water and caustic may lead to an improper shade.

6.5 Process of Shade Matching
The required shade provided by the buyer is reproduced in the lab in lab dyeing machine after the recipe prediction. The lab in-charge first uses the Computer Color Matching System, to obtain the closest shade match recipe. Then he consults the shade card and Pentone book to verify the obtained recipe. If he thinks that certain changes in the recipe is necessary, he then alters the recipe according to his experience. This recipe is used to dye a sample of 5 gm fabric in the lab dyeing machine with following parameters.
a) Temperature and time Cold Brand Reactive Dye - 65 c temp; 60 min Hot Brand Reactive Dye - 98 c temp; 60 min
Turquoise Color (Cotton) - 85 c temp; 60 min Polyester - 130 c temp; 30 min
b) M:L ratio The samples are usually dyed using 1:10 ratio.

Industrial Attachment Conclution
13 CONCLUSION
There is large difference between the theoretical knowledge and practical experiences. This is truer in case of the study of Textile Technology. Industrial attachment or, Industrial training is an essential part for textile education because it minimizes the gap between theoretical and practical knowledge. This Industrial training increase our thought a lot about textile technology. It also helps us to know a lot about industrial production process, machineries, and industrial management and made us suitable for industrial life. Besides it gives us the first opportunity to work in industry. So we can say industrial attachment prepare us for the expected destiny of practical life.
I have completed my industrial attachment from M M Knitwear Limited. During my two-month long industrial training at M M Knitwear Limited. I got the impression that this factory is one of the modern export oriented composite knit garments industry of our country. This factory does not compromise in case of quality. So, they have established on-line and off-line quality control of each product. Besides, they also use the good quality yarn, dyes and chemicals in their production process. Due to this, it has earned a “very good reputation” in foreign market for its quality product over many other export oriented textile mills. It has very well educated and technically experienced manpower to get rid of any defect in production process. It has also a good organizational hierarchy.
There are some suggestions from us within our limited knowledge
13.1SOME SUGGESTIONS
Knitting production needs to increase as well as technical persons need to be employed there.
More skilled labor should be used in a project and the overall efficiency will increase.
Dyeing floor should keep always neat and clean. It kept wet after unloading the fabric from the dyeing machine specially, for Athena. Water must be swept time to time.
During the transport of the fabric and during the loading of the m/c, fabrics get soiled due to their drawing over the floor. This makes the fabric/part of the fabric dirty. It may require more scouring/bleaching agent or may create stain.
Due to the pressure of higher production some times machine operators do not maintain accurate time according to the actual process so that less quality product is

produced and may reject. So our suggestion is to increase machine and reduce the pressure on the operator.
Should increase understanding between the top level personal and floor level personal.
Finishing section need to be enlarged well as more technical persons need to be employed there.
The m/c stoppage time should be analyzed and minimized. The maintenance should be carried out when the m/c is out of action (Wherever possible) and routine maintenance should be carried out regularly.
In knitting and finishing section every workers should use mask to make protect them from fly. Otherwise the exhaust air system should be more effective.
Workers are not interested to wear their gown & hand gloves.
In the Laboratory there is no technical person, a textile engineer may be employed here.
There is shortage of proper light in the dyeing and finishing floor, specially, when smoke is produced from dryer and stenter. Proper lighting should be provided in the floor.
In Laboratory, only one sample dyeing machine is used. The rest two are out of order. So, if this activate one is in problem then the lab dip process may be hampered. So, another lab dip dyeing machine may be purchase to reduce the load of current one.
The spectrophotometer is virus affected. This must be quarantine immediately.
The person at the top level of a department must take good care of the trainees & he should provide all kinds of support to them.
