Let's Know your fabric more,,,!!! Understanding the Role of EPI and PPI in Fabric Construction. When it comes to fabric making and analysis, **EPI (Ends Per Inch)** and **PPI (Picks Per Inch)** are two critical parameters that define the quality, texture, and durability of the fabric. EPI represents the number of warp threads per inch, while PPI indicates the weft threads per inch. Together, they determine: ✔️ **Density & Strength**: A higher EPI and PPI create a denser fabric, ensuring better durability. ✔️ **Texture & Feel**: Balanced EPI and PPI contribute to a smooth surface and comfortable hand feel. ✔️ **Weight & GSM**: These parameters impact the fabric’s weight, affecting its drape and usage. For instance, a fine, lightweight fabric may have lower EPI/PPI, while a heavy-duty fabric like canvas will have higher values. Accurate measurement and control of EPI and PPI are essential for achieving the desired properties, whether you're crafting premium sarees, upholstery, or innovative handloom products. Let’s appreciate the science behind fabric construction that transforms threads into timeless creations! ✨ #TextileEngineering #FabricAnalysis #HandloomInnovation #EPI #PPI #SustainableFashion
Dear Mr Sarkar - I appreciate your note On Epi/ PPI - thanks What is more important for me is diameter of yarn - space between yarn - compression and bending- etc
