National Library of Medicine PMC legacy view An official website of the United States government. On the other hand, dry processes are used to create a faded and worn-out appearance, and unlike wet washes, dry processes can produce the fading effect in a localized area on the treated garments [9, 10]. 490. Kan C.W., Yuen C.W.M., Cheng C.W. Some of these washes produce a fading effect on the treated garments, but these effects are mostly produced on the overall garment surface. Nevertheless, these traditional dry processes possessed some unavoidable drawbacks, such as health hazards for both the industry workers and the garment's end-users. The model exhibits the exact same trend for TS as the experimental findings, i.e., TS increases with the decrement of either DPI, PT, or both. beautifully. Mean Relative Error was found 3.34 % for warp way Tearing Strength and 3.53 % for weft way Tearing Strength. This is the training of the model which the model uses to predict the data. Fuzzy knowledge based expert system for prediction of color strength of cotton knitted fabrics. This controlled condition can be achieved by controlling the resolution or Dots Per Inch (DPI), and the Pixel Time (PT). The denim fabric used for these leg panels was sized indigo dip-dyed. The researchers demonstrated that it is important to control these parameters to ensure a better outcome from the laser engraving process [13, 31, 35, 36, 37, 38]. Surface view of the TS (Tearing Strength) with DPI (Dots Per Inch) and PT (Pixel Time) (weft way). Afterward, the panels were normal washed by using the same machine and liquor ratio for 5 min at 30 C. Syduzzaman M., Al Faruque M.A., Bilisik K., Naebe M. Plant-based natural fibre reinforced composites: a review on fabrication, properties and applications. A fuzzy set with a membership function that is unity at one point but zeroes in everywhere else is called a fuzzy singleton. Besides, CO2 is also non-toxic and relatively inexpensive, which is excellent in terms of the environmental and economic feasibility of the industry [19]. This site uses Akismet to reduce spam. The ANN method has also been used as an embedded-expert system in the textile manufacturing process and used to predict textile materials' properties [40, 41].

View our full line of Co2 and Fiber laser engraving and cutting systems to see which is right for you. It can be evident that the TS decreased with the increment of DPI or PT. Laser cutters use a carbon dioxide laser beam to burn through (cut) or mark the surface (etch) of flat materials. Therefore, in this current study, a fuzzy logic-based model has been developed for its better performance in terms of accuracy, suitability for the industrial process, and convenience of the target users. Samuel O.D., Okwu M.O., Tartibu L.K., Giwa S.O., Sharifpur M., Jagun Z.O.O.

The I wont settle for junk attitude is usually Im too lazy to get off my arse. Hm maybe you could make some sort of thin, intricate stencil, for dying or bleaching a design on. Fabric combustion is inherent to laser processing and may produce flames. To avoid these limitations of both the wet washes and dry processes, we can use an eco-friendly, low health hazardous, quicker technique with higher accuracy and efficiency to make the denim more fashionable using the laser engraving technique [11, 12, 13]. Hossain I., Al Mamun A., Haque M., Uddin Z. Laser-material interactions almost always create gaseous effluent and/or particles. Now youve done it. Denim is pretty thick and durable, though my experience is that laser engraving cloth tends to weaken it. This is pretty much how it went for me to. Ready J.F. An analysis of some physical and chemical properties of CO2 laser-treated cotton-based fabrics. You can easily laser etch denim to create a crisp, white engraving. This link includes lots of fabrics etched with a laser its a really fun medium to work with! Hossain I., Choudhury I.A., Bin Mamat A., Shahid A., Khan A.N., Hossain A.
