Creep and Inverse creep are the important fundamental properties of textile materials. These properties determine the relaxation behavior of the product. We have designed and fabricated an instrument which can measure the creep and inverse creep. The instrument consists of a Trans - Receiver unit interfaced with Embedded System along with the Personal Computer. Existing technique for measuring inverse creep does not measure the instantaneous extension or contraction. The newly fabricated instrument, can measure the instantaneous extension and contraction of the yarn of an accuracy of 0.02%. This can be measured after every 500 µs. The position of the yarn, which is to be hanged, is vertical. The ‘Electronic Timer Unit’, replaces a meter scale. Set up is improved by using electronic utilities. The capability is enhanced to next level of time and distance resolutions. Automation enables to have flexibility of time from microseconds to minutes. Data is stored in different text files. Different samples of Nylon multifilament yarn were used in the experiment. The length and the load were altered. Change in stress lead to instantaneous extension or contraction followed by creep or inverse creep. This can sensed by the sensor and further stored in the memory of the Computer. The percentage creep and inverse creep were measured and have been reported in this present paper. Your paper should be in the same format as this file. The abstract goes here. Your abstract should be a maximum of 200 words here clearly outlining the contribution of your paper. Abstract is in italic fonts.
