Introduction

          Jute is the main cash-crop of Bangladesh. In reality Bangladesh is the home of jute. Its contribution towards our economy is very great.

Jute is a kind of fibre. We get it from the bark of the jute plants. Jute grows mainly in Bangladesh. In our country, jute grows in plenty in the districts of greater Mymensingh, Faridpur, Noakhali, Dhaka, Comilla and Pabna. At present India is also trying to produce jute.

Construction works of the Delta Jute Mills have been started in the year 1963 and completed in the year 1965. Production of the Mills has been started in June, 1965. Late Al–Hoj Abdur Rab is the founder Managing Director of the Mill. Now Mrs. Suaiya Begum is the Managing Director of the Mills.

It was the biggest among the Bengali owners Mills of the then pakistan. The Mills total land and area is 60 (Sixty) acres. The mill has got 2 (Two) Gas Turbine generators of 750 K.W. capacity of each power to run the Mills form 1988 and since then no production loss occurred for want of power.

Location of plant Area :

Delta Jute Mills production plant has covering huge area. The Delta Jute     Mills is at Chaumuhani in Noakhali, which is planned & with a fine tuned future orientation.

Jute Technology :

Jute Manufacturing in jute millsRaw Jute in the form of bales are processed in Jute mills to produce hessian sacking jute yarn bags and other useful products. Raw jute bales from jute fields or suppliers, carried by trucks are unloaded are stacked in the jute mills go down. The production of jute goods from raw jute processing involves the following steps :

Selection:

In the selection process, raw jute bales are opened to find out any defect and to remove the defective portion from the rnore by experienced workers. Raw jute bales are of two types i.e. 150 kg weight and 180 kg weight with or without top portion cutting. The bales are assorted according to end use like hessian weft, Sacking wrap, Sacking weft etc.

Softening :

In softening process jute morals are made soft and pileable Two method are used for softening; use of softening machine and use of jute good spreader. Generally an emulsion plant with jute softer machine in used to lubricate and gummy raw jute. The emulsion plant consists of gear pump, motor, vat, jet sprayer, nozzles, emulsion tank and the jacket.

Piling and pile breaking :

The main function of pile breaker is to break the pile and serve it to the carding machines. The softener machine out put material carried by pile man through a bile to the pile place for pilling, During piling a superficial moisture penetrates inside fibre and “Thermo fillie” action take place which softener the hard portion of the root. After piling for nearly 24 hours the pile breakers carry the material to the carding machine.

Carding :

Carding is a combining operation where jute reads are splitted and extraneous matters are removed. Jute fibres are formed into ribbon called “Sliver”.

Breaker Carding :

 

In different jute mills the carding operations has been carried out in two ways:

a)               Hand feed breaker carding

b)               Rool feed breaker carding

The material after piling more than 24 hours is used in hand feed breaker where the material after piling for 12 hours used in the feed carding. In the Breaker carding machine soften jute after piling is feed by hand in suitable weight.

Finisher Carding :

Finisher carding machine make the sliver more uniform and regular in lenth and weight obtained from the Breaker carding machine. Finisher carding machine is identical to the Breaker carding machine, having more pair of rollers, staves, pinning arrangement and speed.

Jute Drawing And Doubling

Drawing

Drawing is a process for reducing sliver width and thickness by simultaneously mixing 4 to 6 sliver together. There are three types of Drawing Frame machine. In most mills 3 Drawing passage are used in Hession and 2 passages are used in Sacking.

First Drawing :

The silvers obtained from finisher carding machine is fed with four slivers on to the first drawing frame machine. The first drawing frame machine makes blending, equalizing the sliver and doubling two or more sliver, level and provide quantity and color.

Second Drawing :

In second drawing, the Second Drawing Frame machine obtain the silver from the first drawing machine and use six sliver from the First drawing machine and six slivers and deliveries per head. The Second Drawing machine makes more uniform sliver and reduce the jute into a suitable size for third drawing.


Third Drawing :

In the third drawing, the Third Drawing frame machine uses the sliver from second drawing. The Third Drawing is of high speed makes the sliver more crimpled and suitable for spinning.

Spinning_:

Spinning in the process for producing yarn from sliver obtained from Third Drawing. In the spinning process slivers are elongated and fibres are twisted into yarn to impart strength. Spun yearns in the spinning process are wound onto Bobbins.

 

Winding :

Winding is a process which provides yam as spools and cops for the requirement of beaming and weaving operations. There are two types of winding :

i)     Spool winding nad

ii)    Cope windin

i) Spool winding :

In Spool winding yarn is produces for warp (the longitudinal yam), spool winding machine consists of a number of spindles. There is wide variation in the number of spindles per machines from one make to another.

 

Spool winding machine uses the bobbins contain smaller length of yarn. This machine wound the yam into bigger packages known as ‘Spool’. The spool are used in making sheets of yarn to from warp portion used during interlacement of weaving.

ii) Cop Winding :

Cop winding machine obtain yarns from the spinning machines. The spinning bobbins is placed on a suitable pin on top of the cop machine and yarn tension is maintained by means of a small leaver. The yarn on the bobbins are converted into hollow cylindrical package said to be cop.

 

Beaming :

Beaming process is follows after spool winding. In Beaming operation yarn form spoil is wounded over a beam of proper width and con-ect number of ends to weave jute cloth.

          Jute Weaving, Damping and Calendaring

Weaving :

Weaving is a process of interlacement of two series of threads called “Wrap” and “Weft” yarns to produce the fabric of desired quality. There are separate looms for Hessian and Sacking in weaving section. The Hessian looms, shuttle which contacts cops (weft yam) is manually changed. The sacking looms are equipped width ecoloader to load a cop automatically into the shuttle.

Dumping :

Dumping is the process in which the rolled woven cloth is unrolled ad water is sprinkled on it continuously to provide desired moisture. Each roll is generally 104 yards or 95,976 meters. Damping is done manually.

Calendaring:

Calendaring is a process similar to ironing of fabric. After damping the damped fabric passes through pairs of heavy rollers rendering threads in fabric flattened and improve the quality and appearance.

 

Lapping:

Lapping is the process in which Hessian fabrics are folded into the required size used in “Bale Press” operation on the lapping machine.

Cutting :

Cutting is the process where the sacking cloth is cut to the required the sacking cloth is cut to the required length for making bags for different size such as A-Twill bags and B-Twill bags of 100 kg capacity.

Hemming :

In Hemming process, the raw edges of sacking cloth pieces are shown by folding it with sewing machine.

Herackele Sewing :

In Herackele sewing the sides of sacking cloth cut pieces are shown to make a complete bag.

Bailing :

Bages or Bale processing cloths are pressed compactly according to buyers need.

Risk Analysis

In evaluating a capital budgeting proposal, the firm should recognize that the forecast return may or may not be achieved. This is the element of risk in the decision making process. Risk may be defined as the likelihood that the actual return from an investment will be less than the forecast return. Stated, differently it’s the variability of return from an investment.

There are many ways to measure risk. Three methods are commonly used.

1. Beta coefficient

2. Standard Deviation

3. Subject Estimation

There are two types of risk in a company. They are

* Business Risk

* Financial Risk

Business risk

This is defined as the chance that the firm will not have ability to compete successfully with the assets that it purchases. As an example, the firm may acquire a machine that may not operate properly, that may produce salable products, or that may face other operating or marketing difficulties that cause losses. Any operational problems are classed as business risk.

Financial risk

This the chance that an investment will not generate sufficient cash flow either to cover interest payments or money borrowed to finance it or principal repayments on the debt or to provide profits to the firm. If the firm falls short of its return goal, it may be able to cover operating expenses but not the financing cost of the original investment
