Sluzer Shuttleless Weaving Machine/ Working Of Projectile Mechanism

Sulzer Shuttleless Weaving Machine -

    In this weaving machine, the weft yarn   is introduced into the shed  by means of a gripper.A tuck -in selvadge  is formed by drawing the cut weft end into the shed by means of tucking needles. The pick is then beaten up by means of cam  operated reed.

     A torsion bar arrangement is used for propulsion of the gripper  through the open shed.The gripper while  travelling from left hand side to the right hand side is made up to follow a fixed path across the loom by means of a series of rake  guides which is elevated  into the shed before picking and again falls below the bottom shed line before beat up . The gripper on reaching the right hand side leaves the weft yarn ,falls down to conveyor underneath the sley and return back to the left hand side to follow to the  cycle of picking .At a time only one gripper is picked in the shed and  so gripper returns at much  slower speed than the weaving speed,many gripper  are in a circulation so that soon as one  pick is picked  another gripper should be ready for the next pick  (17 gripper is 130" width loom  and 13 in 85" loom;  size of each group is 3. 5" ×0. 5" × 0. 24"weighing  1.33ozs).

     After each pick, the weft  is cut  and tucked  with the next shed  at both  selvedges. It is possible to provide similar tucked in selvedges for the intermittent fabric also. For every pick  there will be double the density in the selvedges which which may be lead  the difficulties in processing. In order to overcome this, finer warp yarn for the selvedges  compared to the body warp end  is used.

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

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
