A short dictionary entry from Knight's American Mechanical Dictionary describing a warping machine used to beam a warp, laying the threads flat and parallel on the yarn-beam. It explains the illustrated machine (Fig. 7038): yarn is wound from spindles onto a cylinder, transferred to a frame, passed through two ravels (separators), and wound onto the yarn-beam, which is held under weighted pressure rollers to equalize strain and reduce thread breakage.
