Sizing machines are "a great example of using technology to drive sales," she said.

Technology companies say virtual fitting rooms and sizing machines turn the shopping experience into a science.

Sizing may be done by hand, or in a sizing machine.

Used in mining, a sizing machine reduces ore-bearing rock into manageable pieces.

The warp threads are first wound onto a large beam, which is then placed at one end of the sizing machine.

The beam of thread had to be sized in a tape sizing machine by sizers.

In a typical setup, shoppers step fully clothed into a sizing machine and stand still with their arms outstretched.

The sizing machine improved the process by sizing a warp before putting it into the loom.

Howard and Bullough provided two tapes (tape sizing machines) and eight beaming frames.

The beam with 2000 or more ends is placed in the Cylinder Tape Sizing Machine.

The sizing liquor is applied on warp yarn with a warp sizing machine.

Slasher sizing machine needed for strengthening the warp by adding starch to reduce breakage of the yarns.

Up to 28 warp beams are assembled on a sizing machine, where sizing chemicals7 are applied to strengthen the yarn for high-speed weaving.

The technique of sizing a warp was mechanised during the nineteenth century when William Radcliffe and his assistant Thomas Johnson invented the sizing machine.

These were resolved in 1803, by William Radcliffe, and his assistant Thomas Johnson, by their inventions of the beam warper, and his dressing sizing machine.

Several tapers beams would be attached to creels on the Tape Sizing machine, and the threads from these would be sized and combined to create the smaller weavers beams.

The sizing machines match customers with correct sizes in brands including Eddie Bauer, American Eagle Outfitters, Talbots and True Religion, the Los Angeles Times reported Friday.

Four or five beams are merged to make the 2000 end beam required, and placed in the Cylinder Tape Sizing Machine like ones made by Howard & Bullough Ltd. of Accrington.

An example of a sizing machine made in 1919 by Howard and Bullough Ltd, Accrington, Lancashire, England, can be seen in the tape size room of Queen Street Mill Textile Museum, Burnley in Lancashire.
