Bearing Structure of a Weaving Machine

The weaving machines are composed of two side frames in cast iron or steel, which are connected each other by cross members so as to create a firm bearing structure which can limit the vibrations and offer a good stability. The bearing structure of a weaving machine is a critical component that provides support and stability to various moving parts involved in the weaving process. Weaving machines are complex pieces of equipment used in the textile industry to interlace warp and weft yarns to create fabric. The bearing structure ensures the proper alignment and functioning of these moving parts, which is essential for producing high-quality textiles.

Water Jet Weaving Machines

Water Jet machines are extensively used in East Asia. They are characterized in particular by high insertion performance and low energy consumption. These machines are produced only by few companies and are used for the manufacture of light and medium weight fabrics with standard characteristics and in water-repellent fiber materials, primarily multi-filament synthetic yarns. They are characterized in particular by high insertion performance and low energy consumption.

Air Jet Weaving Machines

The Air Jet weaving machines are the weaving machines with the highest weft insertion performance and are considered as the most productive in the manufacturing of light to medium weight fabrics, preferably made of cotton and certain man-made fibers. These machines are the ideal solution for those who want to produce bulk quantities of customized fabric styles. The weaving widths range generally from 190 to 400 cm.

Rapier Weaving Machines

Rapier weaving machine delivers excellent fabric quality at the right price. Its flexibility, high level of user-friendliness and versatility make it an ideal means of production for weavers of fabrics. It is a shuttleless weaving loom in which the filling yarn is carried through the shed of warp yarns to the other side of the loom by finger-like carriers called rapiers. These machines are used for weaving textile articles such as shirting, dress material, furnishing.

Preparation of Weaving Machines

To obtain satisfactory weaving performance, it is essential to have not only a correct yarn preparation but also an efficient organization which permits to have warps available at the right moment, thus avoiding any dead time with style or beam change.

Sizing zero twist fabrics

Sizing is a complementary operation which is carried out on warps formed by spun yarns with insufficient tenacity or by continuous filament yarns with zero twist. It is done with an aim of improving yarn smoothness and tenacity during the subsequent weaving stage. The sizing methods change depending on the type of weaving machine used, on the yarn type and count, on the technician’s experience and skill, on the kind of material in progress.

Fabric Weaving – woven fabrics

The weaving is a process of formation of fabric with interlacement of two or more sets of yarns using a stable machine called loom. Human beings have started using the woven fabrics since the dawn of history. If we exclude the stone age period, the history of civilization is also, to some extent, the history of weaving. Though primitive civilizations used coarser threads to make fabrics which were crude and coarse, there are references of fine fabrics made from the filament of silk in China.
