Fiber Production Techniques

Fiber production techniques involve transforming raw materials, like natural fibers (cotton, wool) or synthetic ones (nylon, polyester), into usable threads. Natural fibers are harvested and processed through cleaning, carding, and spinning to create yarn. Synthetic fibers are made by melting or chemical reactions to produce filaments, which are then stretched and crimped to form fibers. These fibers are then gathered into strands or yarns, which can be woven or knitted into fabrics. The choice of technique depends on the fiber type and desired fabric properties, ensuring durability, softness, or special characteristics suited for different textiles.
