US Patent 6,328,078 (issued Dec. 11, 2001) to Martin Wildeman, Jeffrey A. Carpenter and Lawrence F. Houghton, assigned to Tietex International. It describes a process and system for digitally printing a pattern, for example by ink jet, onto moving warp yarns before weaving, so the printed design shows in the finished fabric. It also covers controllers that keep the printed pattern aligned with a woven (e.g. jacquard) pattern, optional warp sizing, ink curing, and warp yarns printed and stored on a beam for later weaving. The scan includes a USPTO database printout and the printed patent with drawings (Figs. 1-4).
