APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR APPLYING SIZING TO WARP YARNS ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE A method and apparatus for applying sizing S to warp yarns W for weaving is disclosed. The method includes applying a concentrated solution having at least twenty percent solids and possibly up to eighty percent by applying the solution to the warps at the nip 22 of a pair of pressure rolls 12 and 14 where the bottom roll 14 is partially immersed in a slasher box and excess size solution is removed by means of a doctor blade 30. The warp yarns W are delivered directly to the nip. The doctor blade 30 is located downstream of nip 22 between the rollers such that there is no rollback of size at the nip and a desired add-on weight of size S is pressed into the yarn W. In a preferred embodi- ment, the application roller 14 has a relieved pattern surface 40 and the doctor blade 30 wipes the raised portions thereof leaving a metered amount in the relieved areas of the roll for application to the warps. Solution removed by the doctor blade rolls back to the slasher box. Alternately, a con- centrated foam sizing composition F may be applied to a bottom roll 42 and removed by a doctor blade 44 to provide a predetermined foam thickness on the bottom roll which is applied to the warps at nip 22.
