Lack of natural textile resources, the present textile industry in Taiwan usually uses pre-oriented yarn (POY), kind
of artificial fibers, to make yarns. The POY is wound from continuous spinning of esterification and superposition of plastic
pure terephthalic acid (PTA) and ethylene glycol (EG). According to yarn assessment indicators, yarn breakage of POY is
crucial. And the broken filament and toughness are the most two important indicators causing yarn breakage during quality
measurement. This study applies Taguchi Method to jointly consolidate broken filament degradation rate and toughness
elongation percentage to establish a proper orthogonal array. The experimental control factors includes knotting device type,
winding tension (CN), oil rate (%), and knotting pressure (kg/cm2
), and a L18(21
×37
) orthogonal array is established. The key
parameter design of control factors can be found by Taguchi experiment. The fuzzy inference is combined with Taguchi
multiple quality characteristics to construct the process parameter module to effectively increase product yield.
