Most of us know that how we can calculate English count(Ne) or Tex or denier.If you dont know, just search by "What is count on textile?" on internet & you will find many articles.
So, today I want to discuss about the relation between some direct & indirect system. Some time its happend that you get a order sheet where customer discribe the thread count by "English count". But you want to order the thread count as "tex". In that cases, if you follow my chart given below, you can easily convert the count from one to another.
Example: A COATS Astra thread having 27 tex.Now we convert it to English count(Ne).
Then, Ne= 591/27
=21.89.
Please make an excell chart as above picture & you can convert count easily form one to another.
