Weft Insertion System

The weft insertion system in an air jet loom consists of a pneumatic device that propels the weft yarn across the warp shed. 

Reed 

The reed is a comb-like component that beats up the inserted weft yarn to ensure proper interlacement with the warp yarn. 

Shedding Mechanism 

The shedding mechanism controls the movement of the warp yarns to create an opening (shed) for weft insertion. 

The Weaving Process 

Warp and Weft Yarns 

Warp yarns are the longitudinal yarns that run parallel to the selvage of the fabric, while weft yarns are the transverse yarns interlaced with the warp yarns. High-quality bed sheets and towels require carefully selected warp and weft yarns that possess desirable properties such as strength, softness, and absorbency. 

Shedding 

Shedding is the process of raising and lowering selected warp yarns to create an opening for the weft yarn to pass through during weft insertion. There are various shedding techniques used in air jet looms, including dobby shedding, which involves using a series of hooks and pegs to control the warp yarn movement, and Jacquard shedding, which utilizes a Jacquard mechanism to control each warp yarn individually. 

Weft Insertion 

During weft insertion, the shedding mechanism propels the weft yarn through the shed. In air jet looms, compressed air is used to propel the weft yarn across the warp. The air jet accelerates the weft yarn and is guided by various components, such as nozzles and reed, to achieve precise placement and interlacement with the warp yarn. 

Fabric Finishing 

Quality Control 

Stringent quality control measures are implemented throughout fabric production to ensure the linens meet the desired standards. Fabric density, color fastness, strength, and other parameters are carefully examined to maintain consistent quality. 

Post-weaving Processes 

After weaving, the fabric undergoes various post-weaving processes to enhance its appearance and characteristics. These processes may include bleaching to remove impurities, dyeing to add color, and printing to create patterns or designs on the fabric. 

Fabric inspection 

Fabric inspection is a crucial step to identify and rectify any defects or inconsistencies in the material before making bed sheets and towels. Trained inspectors examine the material for flaws, such as yarn irregularities, weaving faults, or printing errors, ensuring that only the highest quality fabric is used in the production of linens. 

Selecting the Right Linens for Your Hotels 

Understanding Fabric Specifications 

Thread Count

Thread count refers to the number of warp and weft yarns per square inch of fabric. Higher thread counts often indicate softer and more durable linens, but other factors, such as yarn quality and finishing processes, influence the overall quality. 

GSM (Grams per Square Meter) 

GSM measures the weight of the fabric per square meter. Higher GSM fabrics tend to be thicker, more absorbent, and offer a luxurious feel. 

Fabric Composition 

The choice of fabric composition, such as cotton, polyester, or a blend, affects the linens’ characteristics, including breathability, softness, and durability.

Considering Hotel Requirements 

Durability 

Hotel linens are subjected to frequent washing and heavy use. DZEE Textiles hotel bed sheets and towels are designed to withstand institutional laundering. With seven double-needle stitches per inch and ring-spun weaving, they offer exceptional durability and tear resistance. 

Absorbency 

Towels, in particular, should have high absorbency to provide a pleasant drying experience. Each DZEE Textiles hotel towel is manufactured using high-speed air-jet weaving technology with the finest ring-spun yarns, which makes them highly absorbent and comfortable for your guests.

Aesthetics 

The appearance of bed sheets and towels contributes to the overall impression of your hotel. Consider the color, pattern, and design options that match your branding and create a visually appealing ambiance.
