Sizing is the most important terms for weaving technology. After
winding and warping, sizing of yarn is done during beam preparation.
Sizing is done by applying various types of size materials on the yarn.
During application of size materials steam is needed.
Sizing is a protective process. The process of applying a protective
adhesive coating upon the yarns surface is called sizing. This is the
most important operation to attain maximum weaving efficiency
especially for blended and filament yarns. Sizing is called the heart
of weaving.
Purpose of sizing: Sizing is done during beam preparation for getting

some advantage of weaving. Sizing has lots of objects which are

given below:
To improve the weave ability of warp yarn by making it more
resistance to action of weaving like absorption, friction,
tension etc.

Manufacturing
Machines

To maintaining good fabric quality by reducing hairiness,

weakness and by increasing smoothness and absorbency of
yarn.

Tensile or breaking strength of cellulosic yarn is increased by

sizing.
Elasticity of the yarn is also increased.
By adding size materials, yarn weight is increased.
To increase the frictional resistance.
Projected fibers are removed by this process.
To reduce electrostatic formation.
Properties of sized yarn: Generally size ingredients are used for warp
yarn but sometimes it applies on weft yarn. Anyhow, by applying size
ingredients on the yarn, following properties are obtained. Properties
of sized yarns are given below:
Higher elasticity
Higher yarn strength
Lower flexibility
Lower extension or elongation
Lower frictional resistance
Increased smoothness

So, size ingredients change the physical properties of cellulosic fibers
which is used for making a weavers beam.
