The serviceability qualities of the fabric are compromised when weft insertion occurs in air-jet weaving because it causes twist loss to the weft yarn. The single and combined impacts of yarn type and weaving condition on fabric pilling resistance are the main subject of this study, which has not been studied previously. The effects of using 16 Ne ring-spun and rotor-spun yarns as weft yarns on the ability of the fabric to withstand pilling were examined. The air-jet loom's relay nozzle air pressure and loom speed were adjusted between 350 and 600 rpm for loom speed, 2.5 and 4.5 bar for the Left Side Relay Nozzles (LSRNP), and 3.5 and 6.5 bar for the Right Side Relay Nozzles (RSRNP). The experiment's design and analysis employed a full factorial design. In both relay nozzle groups, the trials showed that lowering the weaving speed and raising the air pressure reduced the fabric's susceptibility to pilling. Compared to rotor-spun weft yarn, ring-spun weft yarn has a larger twist loss, which makes fabric samples less resistant to pilling.
