    Fabric spreading is a preparatory operation for cutting that involves laying multiple plies of fabric on top of each other in a predetermined direction. There are two types of spreads: flat spreads where all plies are the same length, and stepped spreads where plies are built up in steps of the same length. Requirements for spreading include properly aligning plies, eliminating defects, ensuring correct ply direction and tension, avoiding distortions during cutting, and making sure fabrics are flat without creases. Fully automatic spreading machines can fulfill these requirements through features like automatic loading/unwinding, roll turning, edge alignment, tensioning, and programmable lay lengths and heights.

    Fabric Spreading:
    This is a preparatory operation for cutting and consists of lay ing plies of cloth one on top of the other in a
    predetermined direction and relationship between the right and wrong sides of the cloth. The composition of
    each spread i.e. the number of plies of each color is obtained from the cut order plan. Number of plies depends
    on:

    1 . Capacity of the cutting machine


    2. V olume of production
    3. Ty pe of fabric itself (rough or slippery )
    4. Thickness of fabric

    Types of Fabric Spreading:


    The spreads can be of two basic ty pes:

    1. Flat spreads- all plies are of the same length.

    2. Stepped spreads- this as the name suggests, is built

    Fabric spreading

    up in steps, with all the plies in one step hav ing the
    same length. A stepped spread is generally used when the quantities to be cut precludes the use of a flat spread.
    The cut order plan details the colors and ply lengths for a stepped spread, if it is needed.

    Requirements of Spreading Process:


    1. Alignm ent of plies in both length and width direction- length and width of fabric must be at least
    equal to marker length and width.
    2. Elim ination of fabric defects/flaws- any faults identified on the incoming fabrics will be tagged and will
    be av oided.
    3. Correct ply direction (especially for asy m m etrically printed fabrics)- all faces up, all faces down,
    face to face etc.

    4. Correct ply tension- ply tension must be uniform and as much less as possible.
    5. Av oidance of distortion in the spread during cutting- poly thene sheets are used under the bottom ply
    to resist friction of the bottom ply with the base plate of the knife.
    6. Fabrics m ust be flat and free from any crinkle & crease- these cause defect in garments due to
    v ariation in dimension.
    7 . Checks and stripes should be matched.

    Automatic Programmable Spreading Machines:


    All the requirements of spreading process can be fulfilled by fully automatic spreading machines. Their features
    include:

    1. Automatic loading/unloading and threading/rewinding dev ice for fabric rolls.


    2. Automatic roll turning arrangement for face to back lay .
    3. Automatic lev eling dev ice for fabric edge alignment.
    4. Automatic cutting dev ice (one way or two way cutoff) at the end of a run.
    5. Automatic tensioning dev ice to control fabric tension.
    6. Automatic lay height sensing elev ator.
    7. Programmable lay length, ply height and step-lay ing.
    8. Spreading seeds up to 1 40 m/min.
