“To reduce⟳ the likelihood of a mispick the engagement should be delayed as long as possible so that when the loom stops, the reed is as close⟳ as possible to the cloth fell.”

“The weft detector comprises a warp tension sensor for detecting the temporary rise⟳ during beating and a control⟳ circuit connected to the warp tension sensor for stopping the operation of the loom upon detection of the mispick, that is, in the absence of the temporary raise⟳ in the warp tension.”

“If a mispick occurs, the feature automatically removes the mispick and restarts the loom.”

“Cohune said he estimates that each mispick costs about $80 in lost time and shipping costs — seven times more than filling a customer's order⟳ correctly the first time.”

“If this is indeed true, then the data will not appear⟳ to support⟳ the hypothesis that mispick probability should decrease with an increase⟳ in pack⟳ ratio.”

“There are many calculations for the cost⟳ of a mispick.”

“Since the picking algorithm determines the wave⟳ arrival time by measuring the abscissa of an extremum, a genuine mispick can only correspond to a cycle skip⟳.”

“If the picks appear⟳ to be different, then a mispick must have⟳ been made somewhere along the loop and should be rectified before you continue⟳. All picks in the data set⟳ can and should be tied in this manner to provide⟳ consistency.”

“Instead, mispicks, i.e. large picking errors that occur⟳ when ambiguities exist⟳ in recognizing the first arrival among multiple events, are expected to produce⟳ local artefacts in the final velocity map.”
