Need For Shuttleless Technology/Advantages Of Shuttleless Loom/ General Features Of Shutteless Loom

Need for Shutteless Technology

1. There is a need for higher productivity of the fabric due to the increase the fabric consumption

2. There is a high demand of quality of fabric because of Technical textile and garment manufacturing

3. Nowadays there is a demand for longer length of fabric, lot of particular varieties.

4. The speed of powerloom cannot be increase due to the technological limitation . If the speed is increase the power requirement  increase is by the factor approximately 3. 4 times.

5. The modern  weaving machine use a different weft insertion technology ,there is a increase the speed and weft insertion rate .

6. The over  charges for Shutteless  is weaving for unit production are less .

Advantages of Shutteless Loom

1. It gives high production rate .

2. Less floor space per unit production .

3. More production Per labour .

4. Very less energy requirement in a picking as a weft carriers are not as a heavy as shuttle .

5. It give very less noise and vibration.

6. Low  spare are  requirement.

7. Shuttleless Loom are more reliable  require minimum maintenance.

8. Weft insertion  speed is independent of Loom speed.

9. The quality of Fabric more consistent.

10. The fabric faults are less .

11. The machine are  control electronically and therefore easy to operate and adjust.

12.  The Shed  height is usually small and therefore less strain on warp .

13. A very large weft supply packages in the form of cheese and cone placed on a one side of the machine. increase the  productivity because of less stoppages.

14. The number of start mark reduce  because of the less stoppages.

15. It is very easy to produce a multi colour  weft fabric .

General features of shuttleless loom
 
   The technology of the weaving  primary motion and secondary motion, shedding, picking ,let- up,take up remain same.
   The shuttleless weaving weft insertion  system is changed. certain common features are as below.

1.The weft  is carried  across the shed by a career like projectile ,rapier,Air jet ,water jet which is having a very small weight  compare to the shuttle.

2.  A large weft supply package weighing            
2 to 2.5 kg is used in the form of cheese and cone.

3. The speed of weft insertion is very high.

4. The  width of machines are very high up to 3900 mm.

5. Multi width fabric are possible on shuttleless weaving machine .

6. It is possible to adjust the width of machine.To get the different width fabric.

7. The machine are control electronically for their speed and setting.

8. The machine are connected via network to the internet, so as to get a real time data regarding a different production, breakdown, speeds, etc .

9. It is very easy to get a machine wise  production efficiency ,data accurate.

10. The machine are provided with weft  accumulator, so that weft tension during picking is maintained even from start to the finish of the weft supply package.

11 .Unconventional selvedges are form.

12. It need weft cutter on  one or both side .

13. Shuttleless weaving machine need a very high quality of warp and weft .(In term eveness ,strength ,CSP etc).

14. Shuttleless weaving machine required very high quality of warp  and weft  preparation.

15. Shuttleless weaving machine usually have a longer machine life.

16. It is easy to change style quickly.

Rapier weft Insertion System

Image
Repier Weft Insertion system -      The picking or weft  insertion system is based on modified repair principle, two carriers  entering the warp Shed  simultaneously from each side of the l oom and meeting almost half way through the shed. These are two basic type of rapier heads: 1) Loop transfer rapier machine-Gabler Principle ,  2) Tip transfer repair machine -Dewas principle.    In the Gabler system the weft  is never gripped. It is placed in a slot 'A' in the right rapier head and as the rapier advance towards the centre of the Loom, the yarn  passes from its clamped position round the head,  to the supply package in the form of hair pin .When  the head meet at the centre of the loom, the smaller left hand head , enters the yarn  carrying right hand head. The thread at 'A' is passed under the spring loaded cover guide at 'B' and  as the left hand rapier is withdrawn,it repositions the weft at 'C'.  The yarn then  slides through the left

Projectile weft insertion system / Picking cycle on Projectile loom

Image
Proje ctile Weft I nsertion Syst em / Pick ing cycle on Projectile loom - Above fig show following description - a. Projectile loom in the  is picking position.Weft feeder feed the yarn to the projectile. b. Weft feeder open up after projectile has grip weft end  presented to it .weft band and weft break is closed . c. Projectile is pick across shed. weft  band is open ,tensioner release the the yarn tension. Weft from weft accumulator is unwound so as to give weft yarn for pick. the projectile is break on receiving side. d. The projectile which is break as core to  the halt is break is releases . the projectile is pushed backward on the picking  inside .weft accumulator start the accumulating the weft supply for next pick.weft band is closed ,tension lever  take out any salkness in weft yarn .the weft feeder moves forward for griping the weft near to the selvedge . e. Weft feeder grip the yarn and weft gripper grip the weft  on both the side of the cloth. f

Advantages and Disadvantages of Shuttle Loom/Merits and Limitation of Shuttle Loom

Image
Merits And Limitation Of Shuttle Loom A.Advantages /Merit Of Shuttle Loom - 1.The power loom suitable for the various fabric. i.e It is versatile loom. 2. It is suitable for smaller lot of fabric 3. As loom operate at less speed, warp  preparation is not demanding 4. Quality demand of yarn (warp and weft ) is less 5. The capital investment is less 6. Required very less amount of climate control. 7. There is no need for separate Selvedge  mechanism. Automatic selvedge form . 8. The power requirement less technical equipment. 9.  The labour is easily available and very high skill is not required. 10.   The Spare part cheap and easily available in market 11. It can be fitted with Dobby and Jacquard . Disadvantages/ limitation of shutt le loom 1. It  use half kg of shuttle to carry a yarn  having a weight of 0. 2 gm/m. 2. It is wasting lot of kinetic energy of the shuttle in the shuttle box. 3. It give  more wear and tear of shuttle  and checking devi
