Question 49 (Textile Engineering & Fibre Science)
The wale constant and course constant are 4.2 and 5.04 respectively. If the loop length is 4.2 mm, then stitch density (number/cm2) is __120__.

Write Here
Given in the question-
Wale constant(Kw)=4.2
Course constant(Kc)=5.04
Loop length(l)=4.2 mm
Stitch density(S)=?
Formula:
Stitch density(S)=cpcm x wpcm
cpcm=Kc/l ,
=5.04/4.2
cpcm=1.20 per mm
cpcm=12.0 per cm
Where,
cpcm=Course per cm
l=loop length
Kc=course constant
wpcm=Kw/l
wpcm=4.2/4.2
wpcm=1 per mm
wpcm=10 per cm
Where,
wpcm=wales per cm
l=loop length
Kw=wales constant
Now,
Stitch density(S)=cpcm x wpcm
S=12 x 10
Stitch density(S)=120 (Answer)
