Shedding Without Dynamic Warp Loading: The Possibility of Forming a New Woven Structure
Abstract
Shedding without dynamic warp loading is done by a loom using assemblies of polygonal shedding disks and disks for increasing weft density. The multiphase rotational loom allows completely new woven fabric structures to be manufactured, which until now was impossible to achieve using conventional looms. Woven fabrics can be manufactured with the use of warp and weft threads with extremely low tenacities, loose structures, and strong developed surfaces; as can grid structures and woven structures with pile loops. The possibility of utilizing unspinnable fibres, roving, and selvedges was demonstrated on a model of a multiphase rotational loom specially constructed for the tests.
