peaks. The problem of the present invention therefore consists of improving the method described initially so that no irregularities in the pressure contact of the roll occur during the initial rotations after hanging the band, and thus any damage to the roll or to the threads is prevented.
The aforementioned problem is solved by positioning the roll at a predetermined distance from the warping drum at the beginning of the warping of the first band, and by starting the measurement phase automatically with growing wind thickness as soon as the wind sets the roll in rotation.
Such a method causes the warped band to contact the measurement roll only in a later stage of the warping process. Only when the band reaches a thickness that conforms to the predetermined distanceadvantageous to carry out the method by positioning the roll with the same predetermined distance from the warping drum also at the beginning of the warping of the other bands, and to warp with the same warping data as for the first band until the measurement phase is reached. The predetermined distance of the roll in turn makes it possible easily and reliably to avoid irregularities when applying pressure to the roll during the first rotations after hanging the band. The choice of the same warping data until the measurement phase is reached guarantees the same type of winding and a corresponding length of the next band and the following bands. It is not necessary to scan the wind with the roll.
It is also advantageous to design the
