Rapier loom you didn't know

The rapier loom is a shuttleless loom that uses a reciprocating sword-like rod to fork or clamp the weft into the shed. The weft insertion method of the rapier loom is to fork or clamp the weft yarn with a reciprocating rapier, and introduce the weft yarn on the fixed bobbin outside the machine into the shed.

Features: When weaving a strong-twist weft fabric, it can restrain the untwisting of the weft and the formation of weft shrinkage defects; the sword head of most rapier looms is very versatile and can adapt to a variety of different raw materials, different thicknesses, and different cross-sections. Shaped weft without changing the sword head.

Variety adaptability:

1. Due to good weft holding and low tension weft insertion, rapier weft insertion is also widely used in the weaving and production of natural fiber and man-made fiber filaments and the production of terry fabrics.

2. It has a strong weft color selection function, which can easily change 8 colors at any time, up to 16 colors, and the weft selection movement does not have any effect on the loom speed. Therefore, it is suitable for multi-color weft weaving, and has been widely used in decorative fabric processing, wool fabric processing and cotton color fabric processing, and meets the production characteristics of small batches and multiple varieties.

3. The double-layer rapier loom is suitable for the production of double-layer fabrics and double-layer fabrics. Not only the weft insertion rate is high, but the velvet fabric produced has a good feel and appearance, and has no back defects. It is suitable for processing plush, cotton velvet, natural silk and rayon velvet, carpet and other fabrics.

4. In the production of industrial textiles, such as the weaving of glass fiber and other high-performance fiber special industrial technical fabrics, rigid rapier looms are used.
