This research aims to analyze certain effects of yarn characteristics such as: cotton type, yarn quality, yarn spinningtechnique, yarn twist and linear density and yarn finish on coefficient of friction of yarn by using Taguchi approach. Forevaluation of levels and response factors, 72 experiments are performed by using L36 orthogonal design twice for Taguchiapproach. The results show that yarns comprising of finer fibers, combed, waxed, Rotor spun, optimum twist and low lineardensity have lowest coefficient of friction of yarn, which ultimately improves subsequent textile processes and improveproduct qualities.
