A Trial Production of a Loom Using Multi-Rapier Weft Insertion System

(Part 1). Accelerating a Multi-Rapier by Using the Shuttle Projecting Device

Abstract

To shorten a loom width and to maintain advantages of a rigid rapier loom, a plan is to design and develop a multi-rapier insertion system.
This article describes minutely results of trial production and weaving of a loom shuttle projecting devices to accelerate multi-rapier.
An experimental purpose has been succesfully achieved but another troubles have occured. troubles are based on the fact that the is consisted of the multi-mechanism. of these troubles will be easy to solve another will be very difficult.
