Rapier loom: rapier loom you know?


Rapier loom is a widely used shuttleless loom. In addition to the characteristics of high-speed, automation and high-energy production of rapier loom, its active weft insertion method has strong variety adaptability and can adapt to the weft insertion of various yarns and rapier looms. Multi-color weft weaving, can produce up to 16 kinds of weft yarn-dyed products. As the rapier loom replaces the shuttle loom, the rapier loom will become the main type of woven fabric production.

 

rapier loomIs currently used more widely shuttleless loom. In addition to the characteristics of high-speed, automation and high-energy production of rapier loom, its active weft insertion method has strong variety adaptability and can adapt to the weft insertion of various yarns and rapier looms. Multi-color weft weaving, can produce up to 16 kinds of weft yarn-dyed products. As the rapier loom replaces the shuttle loom, the rapier loom will become the main type of woven fabric production.

 

Rapier looms are mainly used to solve the weft insertion methods, including rigid, flexible and telescopic weft insertion methods. Its main products are clothing fabrics. Compared with other weft insertion methods, the weft insertion method of rapier loom is suitable for multi-color weft insertion, and can produce 12-color weft insertion products with various patterns, including various types of past yarns, various types of weft yarns. The active rapier drive can accomplish the weft insertion of many difficult yarns.

 

The great advantage of the rigid rapier loom weft insertion system is that it can actively transfer the weft yarn to the middle of the weaving mouth without any guiding device. The rigid rapier loom occupies a larger area, mainly because the width of the reed is limited.

The weft insertion system of the flexible rapier loom is highly adaptable and has a wide range of applications. The weft insertion rate increased significantly, and the reed width reached 460cm.

 

The electronic computer was introduced into the loom, and the microelectronic CAD-CAM system was widely used, so that the microelectronic technology, information transmission technology and weaving technology were completely combined. The combination of many electronic devices and systems with the loom has become an integral part of the rapier loom, especially the wide application of microelectronics technology in the rapier loom, including weft insertion technology. Some weft insertion elements have been greatly improved, with smaller dimensions and lighter weight.

 

Due to the wide application of microelectronics technology, the speed and weft insertion speed of rapier looms have been greatly improved. In various weft insertion methods such as projectile weft insertion, rapier weft insertion, jet weft insertion and water jet weft insertion systems, in addition to jet weft insertion, the rapier weft insertion speed is also very high.
