AB  - The quality of thesplice made in the yarn is very important in terms of final yarn performance.The yarn ends are not spliced well; the yarn breaking strength and elongationare reduced, resulting in too many breaks in the machines during fabricproduction and consequently low yield. Many methods, which are pneumaticmethod, the mechanical method, the pneu-mechanical method and electrostaticmethod, are used for splicing. Among them, pneumatic splicing is the mostpopular. In this study, it was aimed to investigate spliced yarn performancesin terms of three types of splicing methods including air splicing, wetsplicing and mechanical splicing known as twin splicing, and to reveal optimumsplicing method in terms of fiber type and yarn count. For this aim, atotal of twenty seven ring yarns as pure and blended containing different rawmaterials, which are cotton, viscose, polyester, modal and acrylic, wereproduced with different yarn counts having Ne 20, Ne 30 and Ne 40. The obtained yarn samples were spliced in different splicersincluding air splicer, wet splicer, and twin splicer on Savio Polar IDLSwinding machine. The strength and elongation values of spliced yarns weremeasured with Mesdan-Lab Splice Scanner-3. The measurements were compared toeach other and the values before splicing. The study results revealed that twinsplicer is the best for cotton fiber and acrylic fiber, whereas it is the worstfor regenerated cellulosic fibers, all splicer types can be used for polyesterfiber, and the best splicer type is air splicer for fine yarns whereas it is twinsplicer for coarse yarns.
