Yarn loses the moisture during spinning process from blow room to winding. To regain the lost moisture various methods were followed. The process of yarn conditioning has been perfected over the years with vacuum steaming of yarn.
Conditioning of yarn improves
Yarn elongation and strength.
Better performance at warping, weaving and knitting
Reduced snarling
Reduced fly liberation
Optimum moisture in yarn
Variety of yarn that can be conditioned

Pre Condition / Post Condition
Yarn Conditioning A typical conditioning improves the moisture in yarn by 1.5 to 1.8 % depending on the yarn / fiber properties and conditioning parameters. Certain application may require higher increase in moisture. Pre / post conditioning of the yarn increases the moisture by 0.2 to 0.5 % depending on the duration of the process, yarn /fiber properties.
