How is width density described in Carpet
In woven carpet that is called Pitch & In tufted carpet it is called "gauge"
Pitch is the number of rows across 27" of weft.. so a 180 Pitch would have 180 rows of yarn across 27 inches or about 6.7 per inch
a 270 pitch is obviously more yarns in the same area so it should be tighter if the yarn size is the same at 10 yarns per inch across the weft
In tufted carpet we measure the spacing from the center of adjacent needles. for example if iis 1/10" between needles we call it "Tenth gauge" of if it's 1/8" between we call it Eighth Gauge..
From loose to tight the most common gauge in Tufting would be 5/32, 1/8, 1/10, 5/64, and the occasional 1/16 gauge machine does exist.
They're called the warp - and the weft. The warp is the vertical threads attached to the frame - the weft is the threads drawn through the warp in the process of weaving.
warp & weft .
Twill weave is created through a pattern of interlacing threads, where the weft yarn passes over one or more warp yarns and then under two or more warp yarns, producing a diagonal ribbing effect. The process begins by setting up the loom with the warp threads, followed by the insertion of the weft threads using a shuttle. The sequence of over-and-under movements continues, with the weft yarn being shifted to create the characteristic twill pattern. This method allows for stronger and more durable fabrics, commonly used in textiles like denim and gabardine.
easy formula for calculate gsm as below, GSM= (EPI/Warp count*1.1)+(PPI/Weft count*1.04)*23.5
Nominal count in textiles refers to the measurement of yarn thickness, typically expressed in terms of weight per unit length (e.g., Ne or Tex). Thread count, on the other hand, measures the number of threads woven together in a square inch of fabric, combining both warp and weft threads. While both terms relate to the characteristics of fabric, they describe different aspects: nominal count focuses on yarn size, while thread count pertains to fabric density. Therefore, they are not the same in textile terminology.
In common terminology cambric fabric is made up of approximately. equal no. of warp and weft threads irrespective of yarn variety and poplin has almost double the no. of warp threads than the weft threads.
weft knitted
A bump mark is generated when the loom was started from a WARP CUT or WEFT CUT stop, which will be like a 3 or 4 lines formed at the weft way, like density of the cloth gets heavier at the place.
The weft is the yarn that is woven horizontally in the creation of a fabric.
Knitting has no weft. That sounds like a weaving thing, to me.
Weft to right is the WEFT the yarn running in the length is the WARP yarn
Warp yarns are threaded on the loom and form the long-ways fibers. Weft yarns are woven in and out of the warp yarns side-to-side during the weaving process. The weft yarns tend to be the fluffier, larger, or more decorative yarns in the project, but this isn't always true.
Double weft hair extensions are made from two wefts of hair sewn together so you get twice as much hair as the single one. You can buy this online or you can also have the option to make your own to get it more customized.Double Weft (Machine-Made) Bundles, Hand-tied Bundles, and a plethora of other unique options to satisfy your new hair cravings. A spirited debate within the hair industry: Machine Weft hair vs. Hand-Tied Bundles
weft knitting industry because it is more economical to produce a weft knitted fabric and ornamentation is quite easy in this fabric
Weft
The word "woft" is a Scottish variant of the word "weft." Weft is a noun referring to the crosswise or transverse threading in woven cloth.
Textile warping is the processing of creating the base yarn that runs top to bottom on woven cloth. Basic woven cloth consists of 2 yarns; a warp and a weft. Think of the warp as the continuous row of yarns and the weft as the yarns that are woven in from side to side.
