BEAM WARPING. The beam warper is for the purpose of making a warp for theback of the slasher; the ends of yarn, or threads from a numberof spools that have been filled, are placed side by side on a beam,and when sufficient length has been run on the beam it is cut outand replaced by an empty beam, this order being followed untilsufficient back warps or back beams have been made to fill up thecreel at the back of the OLD FORM OF COTTON WARPER. Creel. The spools are placed in a creel, which may holdfrom 300 to 1,000. The creel is constructed in the form of a V,with the vertex nearest the machine. Down each leg of the V anumber of upright bays or tiers are placed, according to the capacityof the creel; in the upriglit bay the spools are placed one abovethe other. The bays of the creel are fixed or changeable ; this beingdetermined by the amount of floor space available. If the floorspace is small, changeable bays are used, and the angles of the 19 12 WARP PREPARATION. tiers, or rows of spools, can be changed to suit the altered is necessary when the angle of the bay is changed, becauseas the yarn is drawn off the spool, the added tension spoils theelasticity, if it does not break it. !i M tf ?
