Abstract
A micro computer unit for a lappet loom has been developed to control both the revolving angle of a servomotor and the on-off motion of solenoids . The one actuates the lateral movement of the lappet figuring needle-frame. The other actuates the vertical motion device for spot figuring, the box motion and the dobby apparatus in an ordinary lappet loom. The figuring unit thus constructed made the width of lappet figures very larger, the height longer and the intervals of spot figures more variable. Moreover, the dobby weaves and the weft mixing effect got more diversified . By this lappet loom, therefore, highly fashionable products could be manufactured.
