A highly valued natural fibre, silk is renowned for its exceptional qualities, such as strength, lustre, and tenderness. The act of reeling, which involves unwinding silk threads from cocoons, is essential to the production of silk. Reeling technology has undergone several developments over the years with the goal of improving silk production's effectiveness, quality, and sustainability. This review paper gives a thorough summary of current developments in reeling technology, discussing both conventional techniques and cutting-edge ideas. Silk producers can choose the best approach for their unique requirements by having a thorough understanding of these processes. We examine the improvements that have transformed the silk industry as well as the obstacles that have come with various silk reeling techniques over time.
