Analysis of the technological process of making knitwear from half-woolen yarn

Competitiveness of production is a hot topic of the day at knitting enterprises of the Republic of Belarus. One way of solving this issue is the use of cheaper domestic raw material and reducing production costs. The analysis of the basic operations of technological process of making half-woolen knitted products (enterprise case JSC «Alesya») was conducted. It was established, that stages of damp-thermal processing of semifinished products require optimization of regime parameters. Experimental researches of process of dressing of knitted semifinished items in a washing machine with their subsequent drying in the dryer were held. Rational technological regimes were found out: temperature of dressing - 30 оС, temperature of drying - 50 оС, concentration of an acetic acid - 7,5 %.
