secwarp1.gif (36185 octets)    secwarp3.gif (3462 octets)

This system consists of 4 rake-like pieces that are attached to the plain beam on the loom or to the double warp beam. It allows beaming 1" or 2" wide (25 mm or 50 mm) at a time and requires a number of spools according to the sett of warp ends.
On Dorothy, the cramps are fixed directly on the beam; it holds 5" (12,5 cm) by turn.
On Compact, it holds 15'' (38 cm) per turn while on Artisat or Inca, it holds 16" (40 cm) per turn.
On Fanny, Mira, Nilus, Nilus II, Colonial I, Kebec or Nilart, it holds 19" (48 cm) by turn.
It is especially appreciated by the weaver who has no helper since the warp can be beamed easily by one person without help.

TENSION BOX

The tension box is used with the Sectional Warp Beam and is adjustable to fit any Leclerc floor loom. The tension is adjustable, and it gives uniform tension on all warp ends as they are wound from the spool rack to thc loom. Two open 12 threads per inch (4.8 / cm) combs allow easy threading and help guide threads into the proper section.
It can also be used with counter when filling bobbins, holding threads and giving number of meters or yards on bobbins.

NEW 1998: 2 fix rollers, 2 adjustable rollers for better tension control.

COUNTER 
The counter is placed on the tension box and measures the yardage of the warp to ensure that all sections are of the same length.
Easily removable from the tension box.

TENSION BOX EXTENSION

This extension with one comb close to your warp gives you better control on the width of the yarn section (1" or 2") so the guides are not needed. Height of comb is adjustable. Good for sectional warp beam with or without extension.

GUIDES 
A set of 8 pieces that fit the steel divisions for each section of the sectional warp beam. They prevent the warp ends from going into other sections, or from staying on top of the divisions. When the section is filled, transfer to the next section.

DIVIDERS 
Useful when beaming long warps. They are placed in each section every 5 or 10 yards (meters) to prevent uneven build-up of threads and keep uniform tension in the warp. They all have to be placed in the same turn.

DOUBLING STAND

Doubling stand used for twisting two or three threads together.
