Conclusion

The weaving process enables different types of fabric to be produced, depending on their intended use and market. Depending on the market and relative production quantities, different machines will be combined to produce the woven structure according to a logic that optimizes production times, machine losses and required quality. When creating a new fabric, different sampling machines will be adapted for their flexibility of implementation and their ability to minimize the quantities of raw material used (in this case, yarn). When the same fabric is manufactured in lengths that exceed the capacity of the sampling machines, other textile machines in the weaving process will be used, depending on a criterion to be optimized, such as the product quality/cost ratio of the manufacturing process.
