Abstract
The loom, in particular a ribbon loom, has at least one electrically-driven thread transport device for the weft threads for processing at least one thread or a group of threads over at least the distance between two lengths of weft. It also contains a fabric outlet for the woven fabrics and an electronic control device for controlling the loom based on a pattern program for the woven fabrics to be produced. The loom can be better adjusted to the woven fabrics to be produced, in other words to the pattern and the thread material used, if the control device has control means for adjusting automatically at the thread transport device the feed length of the thread to be delivered according to the data predefined in the pattern program, the fabric outlet, and the width of the woven fabrics to be produced.
Claims20
A ribbon loom, with
- at least one electrically driven thread transport device for at least one weft thread,
- a cloth take-up for the woven cloth, and
- an electronic control device for controlling the ribbon loom on the basis of a pattern program for the woven cloth to be produced,
- characterized in that
- the control device has control means in order automatically to set, at the at least one thread transport device, the delivery length of the weft thread to be supplied, the delivery length of the at least one thread transport device being calculable, using data from the pattern program, the cloth take-up and the width of the woven cloth to be produced.
