Plush and Velvet Loom

THIS loom is of heavy construction and especially designed for the weaving of Plush and Velvet fabrics. The loom is built in several different widths, but usually 69^-3" between swords with 20 harness capacity and 2x2 box. Some of the looms are built with 2x4 box.

In weaving the goods two sheds are formed through which two shuttles are thrown at the same time, thus producing a double fabric. The loom is built with a special iron breast beam on which is a cutting arrangement which splits the goods as they are woven.

Standard Velvet being woven in three widths and split on the loom, six pieces are produced at the same time.

An end cam harness motion can be used if desired, instead of the head motion, and this is sometimes used in the weaving of Plush fabrics.

The looms are driven by cross or parallel drive geared to the crank shaft by face friction pulley or motor.

The let-off is controlled by a lever or bar and weights with chain friction for cotton warp, and positive motion from the head for the pile warp. One pile beam and two warp beams are included, also the selvage spools on rods.

The take-up is the positive worm type with two plaster of Paris rolls set with steel points. An adjustable cutting bar is furnished with this loom with cutters and hones.

The loom is built with either a swing or parallel lay motion.
