Jet-dyeing machine

1. A machine for dyeing fabric in rope form in which the fabric is carried through a narrow throat by dye-liquor circulated at high velocity.
2, A machine for dyeing garments in which the garments are circulated by jets of liquid rather than by mechanical means.

Jet-textured yarn

the yarn is injected by a plasticising jet of hot fluid (usually hot air, sometimes steam) into a texturing tube or nozzle (hot-find jet texturing

Jetted pocket

A pocket having a mouth on which the edges are finished by the application of jettings.

Jetting

Jig

A machine in which fabric in open width is transferred repeatedly back and forth from one roller to another and passes each time through a relatively small volume of a dyebath or other liquid. Jigs are frequently used for dyeing, scouring, bleaching and finishing.

Jigger

A machine in which fabric in open width is transferred repeatedly back and forth from one roller to another and passes each time through a relatively small volume of a dyebath or other liquid. Jigs are frequently used for dyeing, scouring, bleaching and finishing.

Jigging stenter

A stenter in which a to-and-fro longitudinal motion can be given to the side frame carrying the clip chain while the fabric is moved forward. The two side frames are linked, one i-noving forward while the other moves back and lice versa to impart a swinging i-notion to the fabric.
Note.. This device is used in finishing to reduce inter-yarn bonding to produce a softer fabric.

Jigging tenter

A stenter in which a to-and-fro longitudinal motion can be given to the side frame carrying the clip chain while the fabric is moved forward. The two side frames are linked, one i-noving forward while the other moves back and lice versa to impart a swinging i-notion to the fabric.
Note.. This device is used in finishing to reduce inter-yarn bonding to produce a softer fabric.

Jockey satin

A heavy, smooth, high-quality satin made from continuous-filament silk or manufactured fibre yarns, suitable for wedding gowns, evening dresses, evening shoes, and jockeys blouses, traditionally with 120 ends/cm and enough picks to ensure a well-constructed fabric. A typical construction using acetate yams would be: 130x38; 67x44dtex; K=33.6+7.6; 136 g/M2 ; 8-end satin weave.

Jute

The fibre obtained from the bast layer of the plants Corchorus capsularis and Corchorus olitorius.
