The correct answer is
Decease in traverse speed

Sectional Warping Drum Taper Angle Effect

The taper angle of a sectional warping drum influences how yarn is wound onto its surface.

  • A larger taper angle means the drum's diameter decreases more rapidly along its length.
  • This creates a steeper slope for the yarn as it traverses back and forth.
  • To ensure even yarn layering and prevent issues like yarn build-up or slackness on this steeper slope, the speed at which the yarn moves across the drum (traverse speed) must be adjusted.
  • An increase in the taper angle normally requires a decrease in the traverse speed. This allows the yarn more time to settle correctly, maintaining uniform tension and density across the wound package.

Therefore, an increase in taper angle on a sectional warping drum will normally require a decrease in traverse speed.
