Jute spinning:
Jute is a natural fiber. It is also called a bast fiber because it is obtained from the bast layer of plants. It is one kind of cellulosic fiber. The jute spinning process is different from another spinning because jute is harder from others fiber. Now I’m giving the flow chart of the jute spinning process in a very easy way. The flow chart of jute spinning process is as follows:

The main function of jute spinning process units is to convert jute fiber into yarn for various end uses. The type of jute yarn that is made can be classified according to the application/use such as fine yarn, hessian yarn, carpet, sacking yarn, etc. various, etc. according to the need and use. By conventional technique, it is not possible to produce fine jute yarn more than 138 texts. However, later, after the development of the apron draft ring spinning system, it was easier to produce yarn as fine as 60 tex.
