3. Our presentation Topics:
Fabric Spreading

4. Fabric Spreading
Fabric spreading is a process by
which plies of fabric is
spreaded in order to get
required length and width as
per marker dimension.This is a
preparatory operation for
cutting and consists of laying.

5. Objects of Fabric Spreading
To cut garments in bulk and saving in fabric.
To save cutting time by cutting many plies at a time.
To ensure every ply plain and flat.
To reduce manufacturing cost by cutting in proper way by ensuring pro per fabric
spreading.
In the color required
Correctly aligned as to length and width
At correct tension

6. Types of Fabric Spreading
There are two types of Fabric Spreading:
Flat spreads- all plies are of the same length.
Stepped spreads- this as the name suggests, is built up in steps, with all the
plies in one step having the same length. A stepped spread is generally used when
the quantities to be cut precludes the use of a flat spread.The cut order plan details
the colors and ply lengths for a stepped spread, if it is needed.

7. Requirements of Spreading Process
Alignment of fabric piles.
Fabric must be flat.
 Elimination of fabric flaws.
 Correct ply direction.
 Correct ply tension.
Elimination of static electricity.
 Avoidance of fusion of plies during cutting.
 Avoidance of distortion in spread
 Matching checks or stripes .
Easy separate of the cut lay into bundles.

8. Types of Fabric Lays
Based on Construction:
1. Straight Lay
2. Stepped Lay
Based on the Direction of Spreading:
1. All face up/down
2.Face to face
3.Zig-Zag

9. Based on the Construction
Each ply of the fabric is spread in full length as
per the length of the marker.
Each ply of the fabric is not spread in full
length, that means they are arranged in steps
Stepped Lay
Straight Lay

10. Based on the Direction of Spreading
This type of lay is suitable for wide and open
face side of each ply of the fabric is placed
either of the top side or bottom side
All face up/down
Face to Face
The front side of the ply of the fabric is placed
face to face in pairs and for making the lay
Zig Zag Lay
Fabric spreading starts from one end as per the
marker length and reach the other end and
without cutting fabric end

11. Method of Fabric Spreading
Manual Method
a. By hand
b. By hook
c. Spreading truck with the help of operator.
Mechanical method
a. Semi automatic
b. Full automatic

12. Manual Method
By Hand: Fabric roll is spreaded on the table by two laborers according to the
length & width of marker. Sometimes it is done by entering a rod which is made
by wood or metal in the center paper table which is present in the center of the
fabric roll.
By Hook: In this process the top of the table on which the fabric is spreaded is
set at 10º angle perpendicularly.The hook which placed on the upper face of the
table is 15cm long and the hook is joined with one end of selvedge of the fabric.
Spreading truck with the help of operator: There is a spreading truck on the
one end of the spreading table in which the fabric roll is placed.Then the truck
is operated by hand from one end to the other end of the table & with the same
time the fabric is open out from the fabric roll and the fabric is spreaded
according to the length and width.

13. Mechanical method
Semi automatic: Semi automatic
machine is working almost similar to
Hand process with spreading track
process because this methods working
technique and working prouder are
same but this process are working by
electric moto

14. Mechanical method
Full automatic :Full automatic
fabric spreading machine is the
improvement of semi-automatic
spreading machine.There are a lot
of advantages of this machine to
make fabric lay. Because, this
spreading machine is operated by
controlling with the help of micro
processor and robot.

15. Splice
During the fabric spreading process, if the fault detector machine gets any fault or damage on
the fabric then the fabric must be cut by width and start spreading from the edge of fabric
already spread by overlapping.This kind of overlapping is called splice.
There are two types of splice:
Straight line Splice.
Interlock Splice.

16. Splice
This type of splice is marked by a straight line
along the width of the spreading table.
Straight Line Splice
This type splice is marked with two straight
lines along the width which are again joined
by cross lines.
Interlock Splice

17. Common Fabric faults found in Fabric Spreading
Bad Selvedge
Burl Mark
Drawbacks
Dropped Pick
End Out
Knots
Mixed End (Yarn)
