OBJECTIVES
Primarily aims at preparing the weavers beam to be set up on the weaving machine.
It collects the ends from the set of wound packages and transfer them in a sheet form onto the warpers beam(which is subsequently converted into weavers beam) or in some cases directly onto the weavers beam.

Drive:1. Sectional warping:- direct drive to the drum 2. Direct warping:- surface friction drive or direct drive to the beam spindle. 3. Direct /spindle drive is preferred than drum drive. Reasons: It facilitates braking problems on end-breakage. The drum drive depending upon friction for its effectiveness has deleterious effect on the yarn(especially fine/continuous filament yarns ) The tension difference between the ends is also greater with a drum drive.

The following points should be noted to improve the quality of warping beams: 1. Condition of beam flanges:

If the beam flanges are damaged, the unwinding of yarn near the flanges will not be satisfactory. This will cause difficulties in sizing and weaving. 2. Stop Motions and Breaks: Proper stopping of the warping machine after an end break ensures that the broken end on the beam can be traced easily. 3. Condition of the driving drum: On most warping machines the beam is driven by fricitonal contact with the driving drum. In order to get a package of the correct density, the pressure between the drum and the warper's beam has to be kept at fairly high level.
Warping defects
1. Lappers 2. Bulges 3. Yarn cut at the butts of the warp beam/ slackness of extreme yarns 4. Conical winding on the beam 5. Slacks & irregular yarn tension 6. Coarse knots 7. Fluff, oily ends & yarn of different density 8. Different length of sections, high wastage rate 9. Overlapping of the sections/Excessive gap between the sections 10.Excessive or insufficient number of ends in the warp
Maintenance
Maintenance Check points at Warping Machine
WINTER
Template
1. Clean with compressed air at every creel change-per shift 2. Clean with compressed air and cleaning waste- weekly Package Alignment at the Creel 1. Look for incorrectly aligned packages, correct if the non-alignment is too severe- regularly 2. completely guage the creel with the help of a gauge- half yearly Tension Weights In case of high speed warping machine, check tension weights at every count change- regularly
Maintenance
Tension Level Check the tension levels with tension meter- Monthly Stop Motion and Brake 1. Ensure that the machine stops within 1 1/2 revolutions fo the drum in case of high speed warping- regularly 2. Check with condition of drop pins and replace those with cut marks- regularly. Guide rollers 1. Check for concentricity- half yearly
Maintenance
Beams 1. Check for the conditions of flanges and beam shafts, repair damaged beams- regularly Creel Fans 1. Check that creel fans oscillate properly and are not chocked with fluffregularly. Parts in yarn path 1. Check for cuts in parts of machine in yarns parts regularly. 2. repair/replace the parts with cut marks- weekly
