How Ring-Spun Technology Works
In modern spinning mills, cotton fibers can be transformed into yarn using either Open-End (Rotor) spinning or Ring spinning. Rotor spinning is fast and cheap, but it wraps short fibers perpendicular to the yarn core, creating a brittle, stiff yarn that feels like sandpaper.
Ring spinning works by continuously twisting and drawing the roving through a ring and traveler mechanism at 15,000 to 25,000 RPM. This creates a tight, unified spiral of parallel fibers. The resulting yarn is thinner yet significantly stronger, with natural elasticity that recovers from stretching.
