Experimental studies were conducted on woven fabrics indicate that the yarn tension is the most important factor affects weaving performance and fabric property. This research has been examined the influence of fabric variables on warp tension, There are two advantages to applied the suitable tension on warp yarn, the first is to increase loom producing by decrease cutting of warp yarn, by suitable warp tension value. While the second is to improve the fabric quality by increase its resistance to tensile and friction. Chenille fabric was chosen for the test, because it is composed of a complex weave structures, on the other hand it is one of the most commonly used fabrics in the practical field. Four fabric variables have been studied on warp tension, which are (weft density, weft count, weft type and weave structure). Experimented mechanical properties are (vertical tensile resistance, horizontal tensile resistance and friction resistance). Research has been indicated that relationship between weft density with warp tension is an inverse relationship, while the relationship between weft count and weave float with warp tension is a direct relationship, and there is no effect of the weft type with warp tension. Finally, we have been concluded an equation for each previous relationship, by using those equatio† Ô– will get a fabric with best mechanical properties and high loom production.
