Winding Package:
Winding is one of the most important process before weaving the fabric. Various types of winding packages are used here. This article has presented the classification of winding packages with these advantages and disadvantages.

Different Types of Winding Package:
There are three types of winding packages, which are pointed out in the below:

  1. Parallel winding or parallel wound package,
  2. Near parallel winding or near parallel wound package,
  3. Cross winding or cross wound package.

All the above package have explained in the following with those advantages and disadvantages:

1. Parallel winding or parallel wound package:
In this type of winding package, yarn is wound parallel to each other on the package containing flanges on both sides of package. In case of parallel winding package, traversing guide does not required.

Advantage of Parallel Winding or Parallel Wound Package:
The main advantages of parallel winding or parallel wound package are-

  1. In this package, so many yarns can be wound at a time.
  2. No change of twist during winding.
  3. The package is stable here.
  4. Number of turns per inch will not be changed here.
  5. There is a possibility of side with drawl here.
  6. Here, yarn density is more.
  7. Here, traversing mechanism is not needed.

Disadvantages of Parallel Winding or Parallel Wound Package:
These are-

  1. Here, two sides of the winding package has needed flanged.
  2. Over with drawl is not possible here.
  3. Needed separate mechanism for yarn unwinding.

2. Near Parallel Winding or Near Parallel Wound Package:
In case of near parallel winding or near parallel wound package, the package contains one or more yarn which are laid very nearly parallel to the layers and which are already existing on the winding package.

Advantages of Near Parallel Winding or Near Parallel Wound Package:
These are-

  1. Flanged is not necessary here.
  2. During winding, no change of number of yarn turns per inch or twist.
  3. The package is comparatively stable.
  4. Side with drawl is possible here.

Disadvantages of Near Parallel Winding or Near Parallel Wound Package:
Those are-

  1. Side with drawl is not possible here.
  2. Traversing mechanism is required here.

Cross Winding or Cross Wound Package:
In case of cross winding or cross wound package, the winding package contains a single yarn which is laid on the package at an appreciable helix angle so that the layers crossing one another to provide stability.

Advantages of Cross Winding or Cross Wound Package:
These are-

  1. Over with drawl is possible here.
  2. Stability of yarn package.
  3. Flanged is not needed here.

Disadvantages of Cross Winding or Cross Wound Package:
Those are-

  1. Yarn quality is less here.
  2. Yarn twist is changed during winding.
  3. Traversing mechanism is required here.
