GSM is short
form of “Gram per Square Meter”. GSM is
the weight in gram per square meter in fabric. GSM is a very important
parameter of specified a certain quality of knitted fabric. The production
calculated in “Weight” for knitting. GSM Cutter is very popular & easy
usable instrument in all knit factory. But, now we learn How to be calculating
Fabric GSM without GSM Cutter.
Suppose,
We have 4*2 Yds
fabric which that weight is 2 Kg.
So, we know,
1 inch = 2.54
cm
36 inch =
36*2.54 = 91.44 cm
2 yards = 91.44
* 2 = 182.88 cm / 100 = 1.8288 mm
4 yards = 91.44
* 4 = 365.76 cm / 100 = 3.6576 mm
Total Area = 4
yards * 2 yards = 1.8288 * 3.6676 = 6.68901888 m2
Now, 2 kg = 2 *
1000 gm = 2000 gm
So,
6.68901888 m2 =
2000 gm
GSM = 2000 /
6.68901888 = 298.997 ~ 299
Great to see such kind of calculation. Thanks
