Measuring of beat up force on weaving machines

The textile material (warp) is stressed cyclically at a relative high frequency during the weaving process. Therefore, the special measuring device for analysis of beat up force in the textile material during the weaving process, has been devised in the Weaving Laboratory of the TUL. This paper includes a description of this measuring device. The experimental part includes measurements results for various materials (PES and VS) and various warp thread densities of the produced fabric. © The Authors, published by EDP Sciences, 2017
