Braiding Technology and Machinery: Principles, Design and Processes

By Yordan Kyosev

Braiding Technology and Machinery: Principles, Design and Processes, Second Edition reviews the basic principles, design and processes used in braiding, while introducing the latest computational methods and applications. Braided fabrics are made by interlacing yarns or strips of fabric, producing structures for technical textile applications from medical sutures to cables for anchoring ships.

This fully updated second edition explains how to use the latest computer-controlled braiding machines for higher quality and efficiency, and also features added detail with new colour images throughout. Innovative applications in medicine, composites, sport, and filtration are also described, alongside established specialised braiding techniques such as spiral braiding and lace technology.
