“…The flat knitting technique is suitable, for instance, for the production of individual, breathable [1] and perfectly fitting knitwear [2]. Due to the approach of individual customised and flexible production of individual pieces by "Fully Fashion" and "Knit & Wear" technology, flat knitted fabrics are steadily increasing in importance.…”

Weft-knitted fabrics are used in a wide range of applications. The tensile behaviour, the geometric diversity and the materials to be used are essential structural parameters that are also economically important. To improve this behaviour, the new approach is to integrate warp-stitch threads into a weft-knitted fabric using conventional weft-knitting machine technology, thus significantly increasing the range of binding possibilities for the adjustment of elasticity in wale direction. The characteristics that can be achieved in this way open up new areas of application, for example in compression textiles.

In this study, full factorial experimental design and Taguchi experimental design for the optimization of selected fabric quality parameters were examined comparatively with an experimental study. The aim of the study is to show that Taguchi Experimental Design can be used instead of Full Factorial Experimental Design, which is a classical experiment plan in textile engineering studies. In the experimental study developed in outerwear woven fabric dyeing-finishing enterprises; The woven fabric in three different twill forms, having the same blend, was dyed at three different rates and produced in three different raising conditions. The fabrics were woven 100 m in factory conditions and dyed and raised under the same conditions. The selected twill texture is 3/1, 2/1, 2/2, dyeing ratio, 1%, 3%, 5% and raising status-no raising, single passage raising, two passage raising (shearing process is included in all raising). Selected woven fabric performance tests were applied to the fabrics. In the study, 27 fabric samples were used for the Full Factorial Experiment Design and 9 fabric samples were used according to the Taguchi Experiment Design. The results of the performance tests obtained according to both experimental designs were compared. As a result, it has been shown with this study that 9 samples according to the Taguchi method can be used instead of 27 samples according to the full factorial experimental design for optimum results. Experimental design based on Taguchi Method can be used effectively with less experiments in experimental studies where production is very difficult and costly in the field of textile engineering.

This article examines the effect of membrane type and its morphology on the chosen thermo-physiological properties of the middle layer of outdoor clothing. In total four different membranes were selected for the production and analysis of three-layer laminates, which could replace the second and third layers of layered clothing for sports/outdoor purposes. As an outer and lining material a polyester knitted fabric with fleece was chosen, whereas the lamination technology was used to join the individual layers. Chosen properties affecting the thermo-physiological comfort of the laminates were evaluated, to be able to select a membrane that, in combination with the outer and inner layer, enabled the use of laminate as an upper clothing layer – a jacket, thereby replacing the necessity of using a second clothing layer. The following properties were chosen as crucial: thermal resistance, air permeability, vapor permeability (water vapor penetration), and hydrostatic pressure resistance. The utility value methodology was used to evaluate individual fleece-based laminates. For the completeness of this study, two types of commercially available three-layer laminates containing soft-shell fabric as the top layer were incorporated for comparison.
