Warp
Weight and Weft Weight Calculation Method Followed in Textile Weaving
Industry:
In case of weaving process, warp and weft yarn weight calculation
is too much important. This article has presented an easy method of warp yarn
weight calculation. In another article I will try to present the other method
of weft yarn weight calculation which will be very effective in your textile job profession.

Warp Yarn Weight Calculation Method in Textile Weaving:
The below formula have to follow to calculate warp weight in textile weaving industry.
Weight of warp yarn in pounds,
Length of warp in yds ×Number of ends
= ……………………………………………………...
840× Count
The below examples will clear your all the confusions related with warp weight calculation.
Problem-01:
Calculate the weight of warp on a set of back beams which contains 2940 ends. The length of warp on each beam being 16000 yds and count of 50s.
Solution:
Here,
Length of warp in yds= 16000,
Total number of ends= 2940,
Yarn count= 50s,
Weight of warp yarn in pounds=?
Now,
Weight of warp yarn in pounds,
Length of warp in yds ×Number of ends
= ……………………………………………………
840× Count
16000×2940
= ……………………
840×50
= 1120 pounds.
So, warp yarn weight for this calculation stands at 1120 pounds.

Problem-02:
A super speed beam warpers with a warping speed of 880 yds per minute is preparing a standard warp of 525 ends. If the yarn count is 30s and efficiency is 84% then calculate the weight of warp yarn.
Solution:
Here,
No. of ends=525,
Calculated production=880yds,
Yarn count=30s,
Efficiency=84%=0.84,
Warp yarn weight=?
So,
Total weight of warp yarn in pound,
Total length of warp in yds ×No. of ends
= ……………………………………………… … (1)
840× Yarn count
Again,
Total length of warp in yds per hour,
= Calculated production×efficieny×60
=880×0.84×60
=44352 yds
Now,
From equation (1), we get,
From equation (1), we get,
Total weight of warp yarn in pound,
44352×525
= ……………………
840×30
= 924 pounds
So, weight of warp yarn for this calculation is 924 pounds.
