Core-spun yarn is a composite yarn structure that consists of staple and filament yarns. In the core-spun yarn structure, filaments are placed in the core of the yarn and staple fibres are wrapped around the filament. In general, one or two filaments are used for core-spun yarn production depending on the desired properties of the fabric. Using more than two staple fibre rovings as sheath material is limited. This study presents the method of producing core spun yarn production for one filament and three staple rovings. 100 % cotton fibres were used as sheat and Polybutylene terephthalate (PBT) was used as a core material. Two different roving spaces for each yarn type were used and adjusted via delivery cylinder. Besides, three-roving core spun yarn properties were compared with siro core spun yarns. The physical and mechanical properties of the yarns were measured and statistically analysed at a 95% of confidence level. Results showed that producing three-roving core spun yarns was successfully achieved and changing staple position affects the yarn properties in general.
