Contract production of warp beams

Warping. Sizing. Assembly.


At our Velen Plant II, you will find Europe’s most modern weaving preparation facility: here, we undertake contract production of warp beams and carry out the warping, sizing and assembly of weaving warps, warping beams and partial warp beams in accordance with your individual requirements.

With a maximum of 18,432 threads, a beam width of 4,000 mm and a bobbin diameter of 1,100 mm, we process both natural and synthetic yarns for you. You can rely on reliable processes and the highest precision. State-of-the-art technology, precise process control and Velen’s commitment to quality ensure that your warp beams are reliably prepared for further processing. Impressive both during the weaving process and in the final result!

Warping Shop

Precision in 18,432 threads

In the warping shop, the threads are precisely prepared for the subsequent weaving warp. This is where the conditions are created to ensure that tension, synchronisation and thread guidance are correct in the subsequent stages.

Sizing Department

Uniform application

In the sizing shop, the warp is sized in such a way that it can best withstand the stresses of the weaving process. It is crucial that the sizing is applied cleanly and uniformly across the entire batch and the full width of the warp beam.

Assembly

Loading onto the warp beam

The assembly process brings together the prepared threads from the warp beams onto the final warp beam. This creates exactly the warp required for your production – manufactured to precise standards and designed for safe further processing.

Quality and safety in further processing.

Perfectly prepared warp beams form the basis for trouble-free operations in the warping and weaving departments. This is precisely what our contract manufacturing service is designed for. We deliver clean results, reliable quality and warps that will prove their worth in your subsequent production.

Laser-assisted precision for your warp beams.

It is during the preparatory stage that the smooth and trouble-free operation of a warp beam in subsequent processing is determined. That is why, in Velen, we rely not only on meticulous manual work but also on laser-assisted yarn monitoring and precise process control, amongst other things.

The power lies in the sizing.

The sizing process gives the warp yarns their final finish before assembly, optimising them for trouble-free machine operation in subsequent processing. In addition to the composition of the sizing itself, the application of the sizing is particularly important here: we ensure uniform application across the entire width and length of the batch.

Modern technology – including in the use of resources.

Performance and process stability were not the only guiding principles when selecting the technology for our weaving mill. The responsible use of resources also played an important role. That is why the plant is equipped with water recovery systems that allow water to be reused in the production process.

Short & sweet:

  • Warp beams and partial warp beams from Europe’s most modern weaving mill
  • Up to 18,432 threads
  • Up to 4,000 mm beam width
  • Up to 1,100 mm heald frame diameter
  • Natural and synthetic yarns: cotton, polyester (PES), polyamide (PA), aramid, viscose, monofilaments, all types of fibre yarns
  • Laser-assisted thread monitoring
  • Water recovery
  • Uniform sizing application across the entire width and lot

Which warp beam do you need?


Whether you require regular warp beam production on a contract basis, a single production step, or have specific requirements regarding yarn, width or thread count: we’d be happy to assess how we can best carry out your warp preparation. And if you’d like to use high-quality cotton or viscose rotor yarns for your warp, we’d also be happy to offer you our certified Velener yarns.
