1、Designation: D5647 07 (Reapproved 2018)Standard Guide forMeasuring Hairiness of Yarns by the Photo-ElectricApparatus1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D5647; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of revision, the yea
2、r of last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 This guide covers the determination of the hairiness ofmost filament and spun yarn using a photo-electric sensora
3、pparatus. It is not intended for use on novelty yarns.1.2 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded asstandard. No other units of measurement are included in thisstandard.1.3 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is therespons
4、ibility of the user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety, health, and environmental practices and deter-mine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.1.4 This international standard was developed in accor-dance with internationally recognized principles on standard-izati

Terminology3.1 For all terminology relating to D13.58, Yarns andFibers, refer to Terminology D4849.3.1.1 The following terms are relevant to this standard:broken filament, frayed, fuzzy, hairiness, loopy.3.2 For all other term
7、inology related to textiles, refer toTerminology D123.4. Summary of Guide4.1 A yarn is passed through a photo-electric device con-taining a light beam that is interrupted by the occurrence ofprotruding fibers or filaments. By the use of a digital volt meteror computer interface, the number of protru
8、ding fibers orfilaments of a specific length along a specified surface length ofyarn are counted and reported as hairiness.5. Significance and Use5.1 The photo-electric method for measuring the hairinessof yarns is not recommended for acceptance testing of com-mercial shipments since experience has
9、shown that resultsobtained from machines produced by one manufacturer cannotusually be verified by machines produced by another manu-facturer. This guide is intended to increase the awareness of theuser to available techniques for measuring hairiness. In somecases the purchaser and the supplier may
10、have to test acommercial shipment of one or more specific materials by thebest available guide though it has not been recommended foracceptance testing of commercial shipments.5.1.1 If there are differences of practical significance be-tween reported test results for two laboratories (or more),compa
11、rative tests should be performed to determine if there isa statistical bias between them, using competent statisticalassistance.As a minimum, test samples that are as homogenousas possible, drawn from the material from which the disparatetest results were obtained, and randomly assigned in equalnumb
12、ers to each laboratory for testing. The test results from thetwo laboratories should be compared using a statistical test forunpaired data, at a probability level chosen prior to the testingseries. If a bias is found, either its cause must be found andcorrected or future test results for that materi
13、al must beadjusted in consideration of the known bias.5.2 There may be a distinct difference in testing speed andtension devices of machines supplied by different manufactur-ers that may give differences in reported test results.5.3 The measurement of hairiness is important to yarnproducers. This gu
14、ide is useful for process control and researchof the yarn surface design at an individual manufacturingfacility. Hairiness also is used to provide yarn processingmachine design, and indications of malfunctioning processequipment, such as rotors, doffing mechanisms, guides, and1This guide is under th

Sampling and Number
20、 of Specimens, Suggested7.1 Lot SizeA lot is defined as a single shipment, orproduction run of a single type of yarn. A lot may constitute allor part of a single customer order.7.2 Lot SampleAs a lot sample when using this guide foracceptance testing, take at random the number of shippingunits direc
21、ted in an applicable material specification or otheragreement between the purchaser and the supplier, such as anagreement to use Practice D2258. In the absence of such anagreement, take the number of packages specified in PracticeD2258. This may constitute all or part of any one customerorder or pro
22、duction run. Consider packages of yarn to be theprimary sampling unit.NOTE 1An adequate specification or other agreement between thepurchaser and the supplier requires taking into account the variabilitybetween packages of yarn and between test specimens from a package ofyarn, to produce a sampling
23、plan with meaningful producers risk,consumers risk, acceptable quality level, and limiting quality level.7.3 Laboratory SampleAs a laboratory sample when us-ing this guide for acceptance testing, proceed as directed in anapplicable material specification or other agreement betweenthe purchaser and t
24、he supplier. In the absence of such anagreement, use the lot sampling units as laboratory samplingunits specified in Practice D2258.7.4 Test SpecimensAs test specimens for acceptancetesting, use 100-m lengths from each yarn package in thelaboratory sample after discarding the outer yarn layer. Taket

Test Equipment and Pre-Test Preparation8.1 Unless otherwise specified in a material specification orpurchase order, prepare the test equipment as follows:8.1.1 Calibrate and service the test apparatus as specified bythe manufacturer.8.1.2 Clean th
26、e photo-electric area of the measuring headthoroughly with a soft brush and aerosol duster.8.1.3 When possible, set the yarn take-up winder speed to30 m/min. Otherwise, use the speed closest to 30 m/min for themachine utilized.8.1.4 Set the fiber measuring length to 1 mm unless other-wise specified.
27、NOTE 2For some types of yarn, 3 mm has been successfully used torelate to down-line performance.8.1.5 Set fixed test length to 100 m.8.1.6 Ensure the yarn passes centrally in the slot of themeasuring head.8.1.7 When applicable for apparatus equipped with tensionadjusting capabilities, set the minimu
28、m tension to stabilize theyarn; that is, being smooth running and having no vibration.8.1.8 For apparatus not equipped with tension adjustingcapabilities, set the yarn tension to provide a smooth runningyarn having no vibration using the following guide:for greater than 125 tex 28 to 30 gfor66to125t
