Design and Analysis of Two Spindle Amber Charkha- A Review

Abstract

The Charkha is a small device which can be used to spin fiber, such as cotton, into yarn. Fabric from this yarn can be used to make all sorts of clothing. Increasing demands of the cotton fabrics, now a days, has made it necessary to increase the production of cotton fabrics. To increase the production it is necessary to study the factors affecting the performance of the women workers working on Amber charkha. Most of the Amber charkha in rural areas are hand operated (i.e. they run with the help of human energy input). This paper highlights some of the factors which are responsible for their performance. The various factors that are affecting the productivity are technical factor, their weight and cost of the two spindle amber charkha. Each of these factors plays an important role in the overall performance of the workers. The detailed study is carried out to design and analysis of two spindle of Amber charkha. The basic necessity of this study is to minimize its weight and price which would help the workers for achieving better productivity with work satisfaction.
