A manual of the processes of winding, warping and quilling of silk and other various yarns from the skein to the loom . perfectly made warp is more than haKwoven, and in no process of textile manufacturing is more skiUrequired than in the warping operation. Warping Machines There are a munber of these warping machines available andthey are generally built to suit specific requirements. They canbe constructed so as to make any required width or length of waipdesired, and the machines are furnished with creels made of woodand iron, or what is known as a pipe creel, all iron, with steel orglass dent reed cased in a wooden frame atop of the creel. The 21 22 WARPING PROCESSES creel can be made with any number of bobbin pins, as may berequired, the usual number being, in practice, from 300 to 1000pins. Up to recent years, the Swiss machine, with a two-meterreel and a 300-pin creel, operated with a direct-power drive andregulated with step-drive pulleys, had been in widest use, but,with the appearance of the horizontal Swiss motion machine, whichhas an 8-yard reel, there has been a notable decrease in the use. Fig. 6.—Swiss Sectional Warping Frame, and Creel. of the old Swiss machine, as the horizontal Swiss machine hasproved more serviceable and more advantageous in other reasons are given herewith to demonstrate the advan-tages of the horizontal machine. 1. The operations of warping and beaming are performed onone machine. 2. A larger creel and far greater number of bobbins can beused. 3. Silk and cotton warps of any length and width can readilybe built on these machines. WARPING MACHINES 23 4. The machine is run with friction power, operated with atread pedal, and can be regulated to run at a steady and smoothspeed, or a fast speed, if required. 5. Heavy warps can be made upon these machines. 6. They are easily handled by the operative when it is neces-sary to pull back and fix broken ends. 7. Then again, the Swiss motion can be disconnected and themachin
