Workshop scheduling and line balancing are essential in realising production plans, particularly in the fashion industry. Balancing systems must optimise precise criteria while sticking to constraints. Preserving balance needs precise parameters that align theoretical and practical production results. Manual methods overlook the balancing process, where managers rely on experience to prove balance and adjust parameters as needed. This article presents a creative automatic balancing application for fashion companies, leveraging artificial intelligence’s (AI) power. It focuses on utilising ant colony algorithms for optimal balancing. The results show the significance of these algorithms in attaining optimal balancing in production systems. The article highlights outstanding balancing results achieved through this approach, providing alignment with detailed criteria and constraints. The algorithm reliably distributes tasks among operators, improving overall productivity. Therefore, ant colony algorithms are perfect for manufacturers pursuing cost reduction, improved product quality and facilitated production processes. This article introduces an AI-based automatic balancing application for fashion companies. The ant colony algorithms achieve optimal balancing, improve inventory management and enhance productivity.","PeriodicalId":510526,"journal":{"name":"Tekstilec","volume":"20 5","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-07-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141648336","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A phytochemical analysis showed the presence of tannin, phenol and flavonoids. The size of the resulting nano-emulsions was measured using a particle size analyser (PSA) prior to the dyeing of cotton fabrics using the two-dips-two-nips method. Antibacterial tests were carried out on the extracts and dyed fabrics. The results showed that nano-sized particles (< 100 nm) were obtained from all extracts in both solvents used at all speeds. All dyed fabrics showed good levelness in a pale-brown colour with K/S values < 1 for all samples under spectrophotometric measurement. The colour fastness of the dyed fabrics to washing and rubbing were good to very good, with grey scale values ranging between 4/5–5. Antibacterial tests in Staphylococcus aureus bacterium showed that the eucalyptus leaves extract solution exhibited antibacterial ability, as evidenced by the formation of clear zones around the wells. Much better antibacterial activity was demonstrated by the dyed fabrics. Changing the particle size to nano increased the effectiveness of the antibacterial activity of the Eucalyptus globulus. Results showed that the nano-sized eucalyptus leaves extract demonstrated a more significant antibacterial activity than dyeability.","PeriodicalId":510526,"journal":{"name":"Tekstilec","volume":"68 12","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-07-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141662953","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The growing demand for energy efficiency, faster production rates and greater production flexibility have prompted our investigation into non-traditional approaches to improve yarn control during the texturing. Instead of aprons, small individually driven godets are a solution for high-speed manufacturing, yarn control and energy saving. The drawing godets, where the yarn can be considered an elastic coupling element between two consecutive godets, pose a new challenge for consistency in velocity control. Though some machinery manufacturers have introduced the godet system, the yarn quality produced by the godet system is not systematically evaluated and compared vis-à-vis the apron system. The current study prepared textured yarns in both apron and godet systems while maintaining the same texturing parameters. Differences in the yarn’s bulk, modulus, breaking elongation, tenacity and boiling water shrinkage were assessed and compared. Woven and knitted fabrics were prepared from textured yarns, and a comparative analysis of fabric properties was performed with respect to their tearing strength, air permeability, drape and dyeability. Better quality of yarn and fabrics can be prepared in the godet system, which is energy saving, of higher speed and requires low maintenance technology in comparison to the apron system.","PeriodicalId":510526,"journal":{"name":"Tekstilec","volume":"7 4","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-03-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140365363","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The scientific direction of fibre modification through surface activation using hydrogen peroxide is of scientific interest. However, the thermal and thermophysical properties of the samples are not examined. Therefore, interest arises when analysing the effect of polyacrylonitrile textile material functionalization on the resistance of fibres to thermal oxidation and thermal degradation. The study of thermogravimetry and differential thermogravimetry thermooxide of polyacrylonitrile – modified fibres is carried out using thermogravimetric analysis to research the thermal oxidation and thermal degradation of modified polyacrylonitrile fibre samples. A change in the rate of thermal oxidative-degradation in the process of functionalization was identified in this research. A change in the loss of mass of the sample under different conditions of functionalization was also identified. The total glass transition of the polyacrylonitrile was achieved by heating the polymer to 130 °C. The intensification self-regulation of the structure of the polymeric material through the formation of the mesophase was released at the temperature of around 100 °C. During the heating of the initial polyacrylonitrile textile material to the temperature of 70‒80 °C, a weakening of intermolecular contacts was observed, which led to an increase in the mobility of macromolecular segments. The temperature of 78 °С was considered to be the initial glass transition temperature Tg,t1 and Tg,t2 – 121 °С as the final temperature for the original sample. However, if the temperature exceeded 130 °C, chemical changes in the polymer occurred, in particular, the process of cyclization. The analysis of the thermogravimetry data of thermally oxidized samples resulted in the retention of the complex stepwise nature of decomposition inherent in the initial fibrous material based on acrylonitrile copolymers. The conducted analysis showed the absence of significant changes in the reasonable conditions of chemical modification and practical operation of textile materials. The physical and mechanical properties of functionalized textile materials based on acrylonitrile copolymers were studied. As a result of surface functionalization, an insignificant strength reduction of functionalized textile materials occurred.","PeriodicalId":510526,"journal":{"name":"Tekstilec","volume":"49 2","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-03-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140367194","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The term fast fashion is used to refer to cheaper replicas of luxury fashion trends. Apart from impacting the environment adversely, fast fashion has several other issues as well. Fast fashion has many sustainability issues but its demand is growing at a tremendous pace. The motives for the preference for fast fashion were explored in this study. Both primary and secondary data were used to conduct this research. The primary data was collected for this study via questionnaire. All the factors are rated on the 7-point Likert scale. Furthermore, the laddering technique of interviewing was employed to investigate the underlying values. The study revealed that “creating self-identity” is the most influencing motive for consumers in making a purchase decision for a fast fashion product, while “showing dominance” is the least influencing motive for consumers in making a purchase decision for a fast fashion product. This study offers insight into the factors influencing buying decisions for a fast fashion product. This research can help address the issue of sustainability in the fashion industry. These findings can also be used to promote sustainable fashion.","PeriodicalId":510526,"journal":{"name":"Tekstilec","volume":"56 10","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-03-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140365892","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Humidity has a significant effect on the quality and efficiency of fabrics, especially those made from hydrophilic fibres. The high temperature and low humidity level in the factory environment results in lower yarn strength and higher yarn breakage. The solution is to provide optimum temperature and humidity levels through a central air conditioning system. However, conditioning the entire factory environment is an expensive approach and does not facilitate satisfactory production efficiency. In this study, a new creel system for circular knitting machines was designed to provide excellent yarn package conditioning. More efficient production and economical conditioning were achieved with this new creel system.","PeriodicalId":510526,"journal":{"name":"Tekstilec","volume":"110 5","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-03-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140223769","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Polyester, a non-biodegradable fibre derived from petroleum, can be replaced with recycled polyester (r-PET), a sustainable alternative that reduces environmental impacts through the reuse of materials. The textile finishing industry, known for its high water and energy consumption, is calling for the development of low-water-consumption technologies. One innovative approach involves waterless dyeing procedures using a supercritical carbon dioxide (scCO2) medium that is particularly suitable for dyeing synthetic fibres. To assess its effectiveness, a study compared traditional water dyeing with scCO2 medium dyeing on woven fabrics made from both polyester (PET) and recycled polyester (r-PET) fibres with varying weights. After conducting tests on the dyed fabrics, the data revealed that r-PET fabrics dyed using a supercritical carbon dioxide (scCO2) medium appeared darker than fabrics dyed using traditional water dyeing techniques. Moreover, r-PET fabrics demonstrated better colour fastness. Notably, the K/Ssum values (measurement of colour intensity) of r-PET fabrics were at least as good as those of PET-based fabrics in all cases of dyeing, while the fastness values were similar for both PET and r-PET fabrics.","PeriodicalId":510526,"journal":{"name":"Tekstilec","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-03-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140245833","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
