Description/Purpose of the Warp Beam

The take-up mechanism is made of many gears where the lowest is moved by the movement of the reed and this movement is then transferred to the gear placed at the top. This is connected to the cloth beam that allows for the cloth to be drawn slowly through the loom. The smallest gear is called the change wheel which is able to be changed to either increase or decrease the speed that the cloth beam turns. The amount of picks for every inch in the cloth determines the speed that the cloth should be gathered on to the beam.
