Conventional ring spinning system is used for the largest proportion of total yarn production today and has kept same principle since 19th century. Analyzing new spinning systems shows that some modifications on conventional systems aid to produce yarn in better quality. Siro-spun spinning can be counted amongst one of the modern systems that enable to produce yarn in better quality and more economical way with help of some modifications. In this study, it was aimed to produce three-strand yarn in single process inspiring from siro-spun spinning. For this purpose, some modifications developed on sirospun system and three-strand yarns were produced. Physical and mechanical properties of yarns that produced from different materials were measured and compared with three-plied yarns. Results showed that three-strand yarns are superior in terms of hairiness and elongation, but inferior in terms of unevenness. Moreover, there is no statistically significant difference between strengths of three-strand and three-plied yarns.
