The preparation of the warp consists in transferring the yarn, packaged in bobbins, spinning tubes
or cones, on the beam to be placed behind the loom and ready for weaving.
There are three types of warping used in production:
1) Section or range warping – used for limited lengths and in particular for patterned fabrics,
both by color, by title, by twist.
2) Fractional warping – used for high production of raw fabrics and fabrics with simple effects
of design, striped type with few colored threads compared to the total number of threads.
3) Vertical warping – used for very limited runs, less than 100 metres, intended for manufacturing
of samples, specimen sheets, handkerchiefs and specimens.
The type of warping that characterizes the production of our textile district is that of sections or courses
while for sampling it is the vertical one.
For this reason, a more detailed description of the section warping will be made.
