Weft
Weft is the crosswise yarn inserted across the warp to create woven fabric. Each insertion is called a pick.
Weft yarn is consumed continuously during weaving; for a busy water-jet floor that means several kilograms per loom per shift. Manual weft issue tracking against doffing entries is one of the most error-prone tasks in a traditional weaving unit.
MobiOffice replaces manual weft issue with weft auto-consumption: weft inventory deducts automatically when greige production is entered, based on the design recipe. No manual issue vouchers, no end-of-month reconciliation between the floor and the stores.

RELATED TERMS
Warp
Warp refers to the lengthwise yarns held under tension on a loom. The warp is pre-loaded as a beam and runs through the loom for the duration of the order.
Pick
A pick is a single traversal of the weft across the warp. Pick density — picks per inch (PPI) — is a primary fabric specification.
Beam
In weaving, a beam is a long cylindrical roll that holds the warp yarn pre-loaded for a loom. Each weaving order begins with beam preparation and beam loading.
