Analysis of the history of loom development, Suntech rapier loom to help the development of textile

Loom also called spinning machine, loom, cotton spinning machine, etc., the original loom is shuttle loom, shuttleless loom technology since the 19th century began to research, since the 1950s gradually to market. Since the 1970s, many new shuttleless looms have been put on the market one after another. The shuttleless loom has achieved remarkable results in improving fabrics and loom efficiency, and has been widely adopted in countries around the world, and has accelerated the process of transformation of weaving equipment, and the share of shuttleless looms in many developed countries has reached about 80%, and there is a general trend to replace shuttle looms with shuttleless looms.(try suntech rapier loom)

 

Loom machine, the common name of the loom. The earliest loom is the seated loom (also called waist machine). The use of the method is to use the foot on the loom warp wood stick, the right hand holding the weft wooden knife in playing tight weft, the left hand in the posture of throwing weft lead. This foot stirrup waist machine without the rack, one end of the reel is tied to the waist, both feet stirrup the other end of the warp beam and tension fabric, with the warp dividing stick will be divided into two layers according to the odd and even number, with the lifting of the heddle rod to lift the warp yarn to form the shuttle mouth, with the bone needle to lead the weft, weft knife to beat the weft. The most important achievement of waist loom weaving is the adoption of lifting heald rods, warp beam dividing stick, and weft beating knife. Although this loom is very simple, it already has 3 directions of movement such as opening the weaving mouth up and down, drawing in the weft left and right, and beating the weft back and forth, and it is the ancestor of the modern loom.

In the production practice of weaving, people gradually innovated and succeeded in creating the inclined loom with a foot pedal to carry the heal. Its image appeared on the Han Dynasty portrait stones many times. This inclined loom already had a frame with the warped surface and the horizontal seat at an inclination of 50 to 60 degrees, and it used the opening device of the foot pedal to carry the heald. The weaver could sit and operate it with his hands and feet, and the productivity was generally more than 10 times higher than that of the original loom, which was the loom of the world at that time.

 

In the course of the development of the textile industry, various forms of shuttleless looms have emerged, including rapier looms, slice shuttle looms, air-jet looms, water jet looms, multiphase looms, magnetic pilot looms, etc. Compared with shuttle looms, shuttleless looms produce fabrics with advantages in terms of yield, quality, and variety, replacing shuttle looms in most weaving fields, a pace that has further accelerated and has expanded from the textile industry in developed countries to developing countries.

From the shuttleless loom technology development and the needs of the textile industry, air-jet loom high speed, wide width, series of faster progress, in addition to a large number of widely used in the cotton weaving industry, in color weaving, jacquard machine, and other fabrics are increasingly widely used, and rapier loom variety of adaptability, fabric color variety changes, a wider range of suitable weaving has the advantage of these two looms to become the largest number of applications in the textile industry Two types of models.

 

With the improvement of human living standards, to meet the diversified needs for fabrics and colors, the jacquard rapier loom was born, which has the following advantages.

1. High speed, high automation, and high-efficiency production can be achieved.

2. The positive weft guiding method of jacquard rapier loom has a strong variety of adaptability, which can adapt to different raw materials, different thicknesses, different cross-sectional shapes of weft yarns, and can adapt to the weft guiding of all kinds of yarns. Unlike other looms, the choice of fabric is very narrow, for example, the air jet loom requires that the yarn surface must be smooth, with less hairiness and high strength. Water jet looms can mostly only accommodate hydrophobic fabrics because they use water. The piece shuttle loom has high manufacturing precision and requirements for materials and is suitable for making extra wide products.

3. Jacquard rapier loom has obvious advantages in multi-color weft weaving and can produce up to 16 colors of weft yarns for color weaving products. Up to 6 colors can be produced on shuttle looms, up to 4 colors on water-jet looms, and up to 8 colors on air-jet looms.

 

Suntech rapier jacquard loom not only has the advantages of the ordinary jacquard loom, but also we have studied and collected the common problems of the jacquard loom, and we have studied and improved each component of rapier jacquard loom in terms of ease of operation, reduction of the labor intensity of operation, an increase of automation and intelligence, an increase of production speed and efficiency, etc., in response to the defects in the prior art To avoid the defects in the prior art, a cleaning system is added to the opening mechanism to deal with the trimmings or scraps adhering to the opening mechanism and to ensure the cleanliness of the opening mechanism so that these scraps do not affect the normal use of the machine. At the same time, a movable tension roller is added to the winding mechanism, which can automatically adjust the tension according to the requirements to achieve the ideal winding effect.

Suntech rapier jacquard weaving machines are available in widths of 150, 190, 230 ( 220 ), 250, 280, 320, 340, 360, with speeds of 250-400 rpm, and have 4500 stable customers and 15000 successful cases worldwide. After-sales service, welcome to ask for details.
