Description
Braided fabrics are made by interlacing
yarns or strips of fabric. Braiding produces
a wide range of structures for technical
textile applications from medical sutures
to cables for anchoring ships. Written by
one of the world’s leading experts in the
field, the book reviews the basic principles,
design and processes used in braiding.
The book also discusses specialised
braiding techniques such as spiral braiding
and lace technology.
