The present disclosure provides a system to produce a blended textile material. The system comprises a fiber preparation unit processing a mixture comprising at least one natural fiber selected from Alpaca wool, Vicuna wool, Llama wool, goat wool, sheep wool, lamb wool, and cotton, and at least one synthetic fiber selected from virgin polyethylene terephthalate and recycled polyethylene terephthalate. A blending unit pelletizes the mixture and forms fiber blends for extrusion. An extrusion unit receives the fiber blends from the blending unit and co-extrudes the fiber blends to form a hollow fiber structure comprising a combination of the natural fiber and the synthetic fiber. A 3D bio-printing unit deposits a material comprising polyester and cellulose onto a surface of the hollow fiber structure to modify surface properties.
A system to produce a blended textile material, comprising:
