The machines described range from domestic to industrial models and are used for various sewing tasks like finishing edges, attaching elastic, and creating buttonholes.
This document compares conventional looms to modern looms, focusing on shuttle looms, projectile looms, and rapier looms. Shuttle looms are the oldest type but are slow and noisy. Projectile looms insert weft using a bullet-like projectile and have advantages like higher speeds, less wear on threads, and ability to weave multiple fabrics at once. Rapier looms insert weft using rigid or flexible rapiers and gripper heads, allowing for high insertion rates but also potential for more yarn breaks if not properly tensioned. Modern looms like projectile and rapier looms offer improvements over conventional shuttle looms through technological refinements.

Observability Concepts EVERY Developer Should Know -- DeveloperWeek Europe.pdfPaige Cruz
Monitoring and observability aren’t traditionally found in software curriculums and many of us cobble this knowledge together from whatever vendor or ecosystem we were first introduced to and whatever is a part of your current company’s observability stack.
While the dev and ops silo continues to crumble….many organizations still relegate monitoring & observability as the purview of ops, infra and SRE teams. This is a mistake - achieving a highly observable system requires collaboration up and down the stack.
I, a former op, would like to extend an invitation to all application developers to join the observability party will share these foundational concepts to build on:

Removing Uninteresting Bytes in Software FuzzingAftab Hussain
Imagine a world where software fuzzing, the process of mutating bytes in test seeds to uncover hidden and erroneous program behaviors, becomes faster and more effective. A lot depends on the initial seeds, which can significantly dictate the trajectory of a fuzzing campaign, particularly in terms of how long it takes to uncover interesting behaviour in your code. We introduce DIAR, a technique designed to speedup fuzzing campaigns by pinpointing and eliminating those uninteresting bytes in the seeds. Picture this: instead of wasting valuable resources on meaningless mutations in large, bloated seeds, DIAR removes the unnecessary bytes, streamlining the entire process.
In this work, we equipped AFL, a popular fuzzer, with DIAR and examined two critical Linux libraries -- Libxml's xmllint, a tool for parsing xml documents, and Binutil's readelf, an essential debugging and security analysis command-line tool used to display detailed information about ELF (Executable and Linkable Format). Our preliminary results show that AFL+DIAR does not only discover new paths more quickly but also achieves higher coverage overall. This work thus showcases how starting with lean and optimized seeds can lead to faster, more comprehensive fuzzing campaigns -- and DIAR helps you find such seeds.

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).

7. The Spinning cycle
Spinning is the process by which wool fiber is turned into yarn.
Blending: the raw material ,fibres staple, has to be opened
, cleaned, blended and treated with oils and antistatics.
Carding: fibres have to be well lined up and divided into slivers (soft
yarn, without mechanic firmness)
Spinning: Slivers through operation of drafting and twisting , gain mechanical
firmness and become yarns more or less fine.
Finishing: obtained yarns can have other structural finishing as for example
yarns coupling, or aesthetic finishing such as washing, steaming, dyeing and so
on .... These steps can be not necessary.
Packaging: obtained yarns can be packed on paper cones, balls or directly
on plastic tubes, as frame output.
During spinning, wool fibres are drawn out and twisted together to form
yarn. They can be twisted and wound in different ways.
There are two main spinning routes for wool: worsted and woollen systems.
7
www.bigagli.net - Made In Italy Textile Spinning Machinery since 1901
8. The Spinning methods
Worsted spinning converts “long fiber” length wool top into yarn.
Woolen yarn spinning converts “short fiber” length carded wool into yarn
Woolen spinning , in order to obtain resistant and well-blended yarn from
sliver, consists of three main steps:
- Drafting
- Twist insertion
- Winding onto the cop
There are two major types of woolen spinning machine:
self-acting mule spinning
ring spinning.
The main difference between them is that these three steps are performed
differently by each machine.
On the mule they occur in a discontinuous way whereby the drafting and twist
insertion occur separately from winding onto the cop.
The ring-spinning machine combines them into a continuous sequence.
8
www.bigagli.net - Made In Italy Textile Spinning Machinery since 1901
9. Products range and installations
Though we manufacture different types of textile machinery for carded fibres
spinning, our strategy is mostly based on a specialization : we are one of the few
manufacturers in the world able to supply modern advance spinning self acting
mules that do represent our main range.

10. Why the self-acting mule(1)
The mule spinning frame guarantees the production of very high-quality woolen
yarns offering the following main advantages
continuous draft on a 3 to 6 m- field, well above the ring spinning system.
Recent laboratory tests confirmed that draft is more natural (no fiber or yarn stress)
and homogenous, because the tensile force is spread across a much wider path
length
Continuous yarn twist (without the false twist of the ring spinning system)
The yarn is constantly twisted before and after being spooled, thus preventing the
uneven fiber relief on the winding axis and keeping the Uster uniformity index
extremely low. The risk of ends breakage during the drafting operation is reduced
when short and/or fine fibers are present, such as cashmere and angora or fibers of
different type, fineness and length.
10
www.bigagli.net - Made In Italy Textile Spinning Machinery since 1901
11. Why the self-acting mule (2)
The self acting mule enables to produce a vast range of yarn counts.
The ring frame can spin yarn counts only according to the ring diameter while the self
acting mule can spin from yarn count Nm 4000 up to yarn count Nm 46000.
The self acting mule allows to produce higher quality yarns which cannot
be made successfully by a ring spinning frame
This characteristic is easy to verify when comparing the trial canvas. When
considering the spinning procedure based on the coordinated action of draft and
twists; we must keep in mind that twists are more concentrated on the thinner yarn
segments and drafts are more incisive on the thicker yarn segments in order to
thinner them and obtain a uniform yarn.
This spinning operation is more effective on the self acting mule because draft and
twists act at the same time on a length of 3-4 meters (yarn path length) while on
the ring spinning system this length is reduced in about 20 centimeters only.
Moreover in order to carry out this operation on the ring there is one more procedure
- the false twist.This is due to the fact that, without false twist, draft and twists would
be not contemporaneous on the ring.
11
www.bigagli.net - Made In Italy Textile Spinning Machinery since 1901
12. Why the self-acting mule (3)
The self acting mule offers a competitive pricing
Considering the same production quantity (matching with the carding set), the
self-acting mule’s price is lower than the ring spinning frame’s price.
The modern self acting mule represents a cost energy saving textile
machinery
The self-acting mule consumes less energy than the ring spinning frame because
on the ring there is one more motor (for the false twist) and the winding of the yarn
on spindle is obtained through the friction of slider on ring.
The only advantage of the ring spinning system lies in the fact that for the
same production quantity the spinning ring frame requires a reduced space
compared with the self-acting mule.
12
www.bigagli.net - Made In Italy Textile Spinning Machinery since 1901
14. What is the ACIMIT green label?
The ACIMIT green label is a document that aims to identify the energy and
environmental performances of textile machinery and make them easily
recognizable and comprehensible, using a process designated by the
manufacturer as an evaluation parameter.
In the absence of an internationally recognized standard for the classification of
energy and/or environmental performance levels for textile machinery, Italian
machinery manufacturers are promoting an instrument whose goal is to
demonstrate some key performance data for their machinery.
Specifically,
the quantity of equivalent emissions of carbon dioxide (Carbon
Footprint - CFP) produced during the machine's operation, is the parameter that
has been chosen to provide an environmental efficiency value to the machinery
being labeled.
An international certification organism, RINA (www.rina.org), has validated the
green label issuing process and the evaluations it contains. Based on a
standardized
and
certified
procedure,
RINA
verifies
(for
some
manufacturers, drawn from those participating in the project every year and
representing about 20% of the joined companies) both the evaluation criteria and
operating conditions of the machinery being assessed for the labeling process.

19. Self acting mule spinning cycle :
outward stage and backing-off
A. Outward stage – draft and twists: during this first phase the bobbin¹ holder
carriage moves away from the spindles rail. Whilst this is going on a certain
quantity of yarn is fed and the spindles rotate simultaneously at high speed.
Since the yarn feeding is less than the space covered by the bobbin holder
carriage, the yarn is drafted of a certain percentage (set by the operator).
During all this phase the spindles rotate while giving a certain number of
twists per meter, programmed by the operator too. At the end of this first
phase the bobbin holder carriage will be completely opened (in the farthest
distance position away from the spindles). The yarn is processed.
B. Backing-off:
preparation for winding stage (processed yarn is slowly
unwounded on spindle). The faller² moves down to reach its winding
position. The counter-faller³ moves up in order to tension the processed
yarn.
Note: Bobbin1 = product coming from carding set - Faller2 = mechanical part
relative to yarn placing on the spindle
19
www.bigagli.net - Made In Italy Textile Spinning Machinery since 1901
20. Self acting mule spinning cycle :
inward stage and fallers stroke
C. Inward stage – winding: the bobbin holder carriage comes back to the start
position at high speed while the spindles turn so as to wind the yarn on the
cop in the position determined by the faller and with tension imposed by
counter-faller3.
D. Fallers
stroke: when the bobbin holder carriage has reached the start
position, the yarn has been completely winded on the cop, the faller springs
up quickly to reach its parking position. In the meantime the counter-faller
quickly springs down in order to reach its parking position, making free the
yarn and preparing the machine for the next yarn path (starting process from
phase A).
Note: Counter-faller3 = mechanical part relative to yarn tensioning on the cop
20
www.bigagli.net - Made In Italy Textile Spinning Machinery since 1901
21. Self acting mule spinning cycle features
For each yarn path (phase A+B+C+D) the quantity of yarn produced is given
by the length of yarn path multiplied for the number of spindles. In order to match
the self-acting mule with a carding set, spindles have to be 2,5 times the number
of good ends of carding set (with yarn path 4 mt. on the self-acting mule)
The
self-acting mule spinning process can include additional phases as for
example jacking-in and/or extra feeding that enable to reduce yarn brakes due to
the high number of twists per meter.

22. Mule spinning frame mod. B7 DD :
main advantages
Maximise production capacity reducing downtimes
The possibility of operating on a single section reduces the total spinning
machine downtimes, related to cop replacement, bobbins replacement and
generally speaking all the machine stops carried out through the switch bar.
Indeed a section can be stopped meanwhile the other section can continue
to work normally.
Increase of quality standard and performance
Mechanical, electronic and software improvements have permitted to produce
very fine and delicate yarns like cashmere 100% up to count Nm 46.
More flexibility for an easier management of small lots and lot ends
The two independent sections of the spinning self acting mule recent model B7
DD allow to process two different yarns at the same time as if you would
have two self acting mules operating simultaneously. The main advantages of
such an improvement are related to the production flexibility achieved when it
comes to small lots production and lot ends.
22
