Passage of Warp and Cloth Through a Plain Power Loom

Figure 1.1 shows the passage of a warp sheet and cloth through a plain power loom.

A warp sheet A from a weaver’s beam B passes around a back rest C and is led around lease rods D to heald shafts E & F which are responsible for separating the warp sheet into two layers to form a shed. The purpose of the back rest and the lease rods is to separate the warp yarns uniformly and precisely, and reduce entanglement and tension in the yarns during the opening of the warp shed.

fios de urdume/urdidura


Explanation:
"Tecelagem é o ato de tecer, entrelaçar fios de trama (transversal) e urdume, ou urdidura, (longitudinal) formando tecidos."

Os fios de urdume, antes de receber os fios de trama, formam um "sheet" ou manta, pois são muito próximos um ao outro. É esta manta que se chama "warp sheet", pois "warp" é "urdume".
