a spiral warp, in which the warp is made up of a single, very long yarn wound in a spiral pattern around a pair of sticks or beams. The warp must be strong...

under the warp threads. The ends of the warp threads are usually fastened to beams. One end is fastened to one beam, the other end to a second beam, so that...

additional warp beam. In 1795, the machine was successfully used to make lacy fabrics. Warp frames could be used with any thread, and the warps provided...

the reed. The warp-beam is a wooden or metal cylinder on the back of the loom on which the warp is delivered. The threads of the warp extend in parallel...

effectively coils in warp nacelles protruding from the spaceship. The warp nacelles generate a subspace field, the warp field or a warp bubble, which distort...

replaced the Lancashire loom. The main components of the loom are the warp beam, heddles, harnesses, shuttle, reed, and takeup roll. In the loom, yarn...

known as the warp, and the crosswise threads are known as the weft. The warp, which must be strong, needs to be presented to loom on a warp beam. The weft...

spinning and weaving industries. The major components of the loom are the warp beam, heddles, harnesses, shuttle, reed and takeup roll. In the loom, yarn...

referred to as a beamer. The specification contained information on the quality and count of the yarn, this would be different for warp and weft. The cotton...

faster-than-light speeds with respect to the contents of the warp bubble; that is, a light beam within the warp bubble would still always move more quickly than the...

the bottom of the available warp, the completed section can be rolled around the top beam, and additional lengths of warp threads can be unwound from...

ability to use his warp-beam diminishes as he uses it; the greater the intensity of its usage, the faster it is used up. His warp-beam power is replenished...

two warp beams, though it can be run using just one or none. An S-twist thread is out on the front warp (right warp) and a Z- twist on the back warp (left...

motion — letting the warp wound on a warp beam, when the cloth is taken up on the cloth roller beam. Taking up and letting off the warp are done simultaneously...

prone to warping than solid wooden joists. However, there has been some concern as to their rapid loss of strength in a fire if unprotected. I-beams are widely...

called the warp, and keeping them under tension. The warp threads are wound on a roller called the warp beam, and attached to the cloth beam which will...

such as I sections, warping deflections occur which, if restrained, greatly increase the torsional stiffness. Airy points Beam engine Building code Cantilever...

threads are wound onto the two warp beams in groups of 10 to 16 for a narrow stripe. The stripes are always in the warp direction and on grain. Today,...

moving at warp velocities. In the TNG episode "The Schizoid Man", a "long-range" or "near-warp" transport was required as a transporter beam cannot penetrate...

10 lb (4.5 kg) Thread: a length of 54 in (1.4 m)—the circumference of a warp beam Lea: 120 yd (110 m) Hank: a length of 7 leas or 840 yd (770 m) Spyndle:...
