Circular Weaving Method for 3D Tubular Fabric

Abstract: The production methods for 3D fiber textile composites are 3D-braiding, 3D-weaving, 3D-stitching etc, but they are still not very competent at making 3D tubular fabric due to lacking of standardizing and successive production. This article presents a 3D circular weaving method which can produce 3D tubular fabric of orthogonal weave structure. Weft yarns and binder yarns are put into the tubular fabric circumferentially by shuttles, connect the warp yarns both within weaving plane and through thickness of the fabric. By this method, warp yarns could be supplied continually and 3D tubular fabrics can be produced as a standard series with high continuity and efficiency, which may have a great prospect.
