This research paper intends to measure the impact of changing some mechanical variables such as the machine speed and the type of beating-up mechanism for the weaving machine on the beating force on the textile during producing variable types of terry fabrics using a measuring system.Examine the impact of mechanical modifications on various weaving machines that affected the quality of the textiles manufactured. Since the reed is responsible for beating, the quality of the fabrics on the textile machine and the fabric pattern must be correlated with the weft density of the cloth and the beat-up force. The beat-up force, responsible for moving the yarns, directly impacts the stress on the yarns and consequently, the produced fabrics' quality. As terry fabrics have various applications, finding the optimal method to manufacture superior terry textiles following study factors (machine speed, beat-up mechanism, weft count, weft density) is essential.
