Before weaving, preparatory work must be done, such as dipping to soften sericin, doubling and twisting of silk that can improve product performance, as well as warping and weft rolling. At the same time, because silk is highly hygroscopic, it is necessary to do a good job of preventing moisture. The automatic looms used in silk weaving production mainly include: water jet looms used to produce synthetic fiber filament fabrics and rapier looms used to produce multi-color weft jacquard fabrics. Silk fabrics can be divided into simple plain weaves and complex floral fabrics.
Large-patterned fabrics are referred to as patterned fabrics, which use a certain kind of organization as the ground, on which one or more patterns of different organizations, different colors, and different raw materials are displayed. There are many warp and weft threads in a pattern cycle of a pattern fabric, which can be hundreds or even thousands. Therefore, it can only be woven on a jacquard loom. The colorful silk is the crystallization of the exquisite dyeing and finishing process. The printing process plays an important role in the production process of silk. Because only by using dyeing and finishing technology, we can reproduce our favorite colors and patterns perfectly on the white blank, so as to make the fabric more artistic. The process mainly includes four processing steps of raw silk and fabric refining, dyeing, printing and finishing.
