inputs and outputs of yarn manufacturing process

Yarn and Yarn Manufacturing: 

An assemblage of fibers that is twisted or laid together so as to form a continuous strand that can be made into a textile fabric. So a yarn is a strand of natural or man made fibres or filaments that have been twisted or grouped together for use in weaving ,knitting ,or other methods of constructing textile fabrics. The type of yarn to be manufactured will depend on the fibres selected;the texture, or hand,of the fabric to be made; and qualities such as warmth, resiliency, softness, and durability required in the fabric's end uses. 

Yarn Manufacturing Process

Input - output and objects of individual section of yarn manufacturing (for cotton): 

Input-output and objects of individual section of yarn manufacturing for Cotton is given below step by step

Conclusion:

Completing this process we can, get yarn and use it different work. This process only use for cotton yarn(carded/combed) manufacturing.
