Question

The major parts of the sizing machine are arranged in the sequence as:
A. drying cylinder
B. beaming unit
C. creel
D. splitting rods
E. size Box Choose the correct answer from the options given below:

• A. A, C, E, B, D
• B. D, B, A, E, C
• C. C, E, A, D, B
• D. E, C, A, B, D

Hint:

Think of the flow: Feed (Creel) $\rightarrow$ Wet (Size Box) $\rightarrow$ Dry (Cylinders) $\rightarrow$ Separate (Rods) $\rightarrow$ Wind (Beaming).

Answer 1

The Correct Option is C

Concept: Sizing (or slashing) is the process of applying a protective adhesive coating to warp yarns.

Step 1: Entry and Application.
The yarn begins at the C (Creel) and passes into the E (Size Box) where the sizing liquor is applied and squeezed into the yarn.

Step 2: Drying and Separation.
The wet yarn is then dried using an A (Drying cylinder). Since the size can make yarns stick together, they must pass through D (Splitting rods) to separate individual ends.

Step 3: Collection.
The separated, dried, and sized yarns are finally wound onto the weaver's beam at the B (Beaming unit).
