Question 38 (Textile Engineering & Fibre Science)

A 180 cm wide fabric with 30 picks/cm is produced on a loom running at 500 rpm with 95% efficiency. The number of meters of fabric produced per hour will be

(A)9.0
(B)9.5
(C)10.0
(D)10.5
[Show Answer]

Option B is correct

Given in the question-

Fabric width=180 cm

Picks per cm (PPCM)=30

PPM=3000

Loom rpm=500

Efficiency=95%

The number of meters of fabric produced per hour=?

Production(m/hr)=\frac {Loom rpm \times Efficiency \times 60}{PPM \times 100}

Production(m/hr)=\frac {500 \times 95 \times 60}{3000 \times 100}

Production(m/hr)=\frac {500 \times 95 \times 60}{3000 \times 100}

Production(m/hr)=\frac {2850000}{300000}

Production(m/hr)=9.5 (Ans)
