Engineered non-woven textile and method of manufacturing

A method of creating an engineered textile comprising:

• selectively printing or extruding a first bonding material on a substrate;
• placing a yarn-wound jig on an upper surface of a substrate, the yarn-wound jig including:
• a frame defining a central area;
• a plurality of retention features provided along an outer perimeter of the central area and extending outward from the frame;
• and
• a first plurality of arranged yarn strands, each yarn strand of the plurality of arranged yarn strands extending across the central area of the frame and between two of the plurality of retention features;
• selectively printing or extruding a second bonding material across the first plurality of arranged yarn strands and further into contact with the first bonding material;
• solidifying the second bonding material to bond adjacent ones of the first plurality of arranged yarn strands together and form a bound plurality of arranged yarn strands;
• and
• removing the bound plurality of arranged yarn strands from the substrate and the frame, the bound plurality of arranged yarn strands forming the engineered textile.
