Abstract
Apparatus for handling the drop wires after the warp-yarn draw-in has taken place contains rail-like carrier members (12) provided for lining up the drop wires. Threaded spindles (34) are arranged on top parts of the carrier members in position to engage the drop wires on the carrier members. The threaded spindles (34) are for displacing the drop wires in the longitudinal direction of the carrier members. The displacement of the drop wires on the carrier members is thereby automated, and the stress on the warp yarns is kept as low as possible.
