There are different parts of a loom. All these together take part in making a complete fabric. So all parts are important here. Here is a list of all important parts of a loom with their functions and application.
Different parts of a loom
- Warp Beam
- Weft Beam
- Harness
- Batten
- Reed
- Selvedge
- Woven Cloth
- Cloth Beam
- Fell or edge of cloth
- Shed
- Weft
- Shuttle
- Bobbin
- Dent
- Heddle
- Heddle Eye
Warp Beam
Located at the rear of the loom on that with the warp yarns. And, it’s a cylinder on that the warp threads are in parallel lines. Thereafter, the yarns pass to the front of the loom wherever they’re connected to textile roll.
Harness
This is the frame consisting of variety of wires of heddles. So, every heddle consists an eye fixed through that one or additional warp yarns passes. In addition, the harness is that the necessary a part of the loom because, it has upward or downward movement of warp yarn, ensures the right running of the filling yarn over or below the warp yarn to supply the designed pattern within the textile. Harness contains variety of heddles.
Heddle
It is a wear with a hole within the center through the warp yarn goes. There are as several heddles as there are warp yarns within the textile. And All the heddles need to control in 2 or additional harnesses the warp is raised and down by a harness-haddle arrangement. once the harness is raised shed is created through that the filling yarn are often inserted.
The Weaving method
The first step in weaving is to stretch the warp or longitudinal yarns. Which should be terribly sturdy. The weft, pick or filling crosses the warp, binding the warp threads at either aspect type the selvage. The 3 essential steps once the warp stretched, shedding or raising each alternate warp yarn or set of yarns to receive the filling, choosing or inserting the filling and battening or pressing home the filling to form the materials compact. In most primitive weaving these operations were performed by the hands alone as in creating rush mats and baskets bit by bit, frames for holding the warp equally stretched and devices for throwing the filling came into use.
Shuttle
This holds the filling or the filling yarn and passes backwards and forwards across loom.
Reed or Batten
It is a frame that is found directly before of the harness. Furthermore, this frame pushes forward whenever the shuttle passes in between the warp yarns and presses back the filling thread in position.
Cloth Beam
It is placed within the front of the loom nearest to the weaver on the that the plain-woven textile is wound. Thereafter, it is for winding the cloth in a way of continuous process.
