  • Warp monitoring and beaming process
    Patent number: 4610059
    Abstract: In a warping process, the yarns are overfed into an accumulator comprising an individual tension detector for each yarn. The overfeed reduces the tension and thus the frictional drag as the yarns pass in a partial wrap around their tension detectors, permitting higher warping speeds.
