beat
I think that sley would refer more to the part of the loom, not the action involved in weaving, where each "stroke" is called a beat.
"beating up" is given as "battuta della trama"
I personally have always used beat in this context.

sley (slay) = battente in a loom
Not conclusive, but see following examples which might set you on the right track.

The adhesion, toughness, and film strength of Elvanol® are reflected in improved physical properties of the sized yarn. Table II shows the effect of size on a typical polyester/cotton blend yarn to be woven into a 128 sley broadcloth. Elvanol® , at half the total add-on required with starch, produces a stronger yarn with 25% greater elongation and lower stiffness (modulus). The improved toughness of the yarn sized with Elvanol® is indicative of good flex life, abrasion resistance, and shock absorbency on the loom.

Kringle is right
but I don't know that you can say "beat" or sley per inch. I found "shot per inch" or "wefts per inch".
