A textile mill system and associated method include a plurality of spinning mills each having textile machines. A computer system determines adapted machine parameters for the textile machines and processes within the spinning mills. The computer system includes a receiving and transmitting section configured to receive operational information from the spinning mills and the textile machines, and a first database configured to store the received operational information. A processing section includes an optimizer section with a neural network, wherein the neural network uses the operational information stored in the first database with processes for or derived from supervised or unsupervised machine or deep learning to determine the adapted machine parameters.

A clothing wire for clothed elements for use in textile machines includes a root, and a blade, the root and blade having an overall combined wire height (h.sub.1) of 1.5 mm to 15 mm. The clade includes teeth having a tooth depth (h.sub.6) of 0.5 mm to 10 mm, and having a tooth pitch (p) of 1.5 mm to 15 mm. Viewed in a first working direction of the clothing wire, the teeth have a first tip with a first working angle (), and viewed in a second working direction of the clothing wire, the teeth have a second tip with a second working angle (). At each tooth, the first tip is joined to the second tip via a concave tip face. A height difference (E) of 0.02 mm to 0.5 mm is defined between the second tip and the first tip.

A preparation device prepares a sample of textile fibers, in particular cotton fibers, applicable to analysis and/or measuring apparatuses respectively for analyzing and/or measuring characteristics of the textile fibers forming the sample. The preparation device includes a comb body that can be coupled in a sliding manner along a rectilinear guide that faces a perforated plate against which to press a mass of textile fibers forming protuberances projecting from the holes of the perforated plate. The comb body is arranged to grip tufts of textile fibers from such protuberances. The preparation device also includes at least one brush that is mounted in a sliding manner along a rectilinear guide facing the perforated plate and that is arranged to brush the textile fibers forming the protuberances before the comb body grips the tufts.

A process for using recycled waste cotton material to produce a textile product is provided. The process can include collecting different categories of waste cotton material from a variety of textile formation processes. The process can also include selecting specific categories of waste cotton material to be blended together depending on the textile product to be produced. In the process, sequence of cleaning, opening and blending processing steps can be selected to be used in making a yarn depending on the textile product to be produced. The selected specific categories of waste cotton material can be cleaned, opened and blended into blended cotton fibers. The blended cotton fibers can then be processed into the textile product to be produced. Thus, a textile product can be provided that includes yarn that can have at least three different categories of waste cotton material that are from textile formation processes.

A method and system for the production of fibers for use in biocomposites is provided that includes the ability to use both retted and unretted straw, that keeps the molecular structure of the fibers intact by subjecting the fibers to minimal stress, that maximizes the fiber's aspect ratio, that maximizes the strength of the fibers, and that minimizes time and energy inputs, along with maintaining the fibers in good condition for bonding to the polymer(s) used with the fibers to form the biocomposite material. This consequently increases the functionality of the biocomposites produced (i.e. reinforcement, sound absorption, light weight, heat capacity, etc.), increasing their marketability. Additionally, as the disclosed method does not damage the fibers, oilseed flax straw, as well as all types of fibrous materials (i.e. fiber flax, banana, jute, industrial hemp, sisal, coir) etc., can be processed in bio composite materials.
