Introduction:
Loom is a machine which used to form woven fabric. A loom contains different parts. Every part has individual function. There I discuses the function different parts of loom with figure.
Function of different parts with specific figure:
Warp Beam:
The warp beam, which holds the warp yarns, is located at the back of the machine and is controlled so that it releases warp yarns to the weaving area of the loom as needed. This beam is produced by warping.
Healds Shaft:
It is a frame which contain more amount of wire .Every wire contain a hole or eye in its center through which a warp yarn is threaded. Healds control the warp yarn to produce shed by the tappet, dobby, or jacquard mechanisms.
Shuttle:
Shuttle is the device used in weaving to carry the weft warn. The picking are completed by shuttle at shuttle loom. The filling thread is wound on a bobbin which sets into the shuttle or bobbin container. As the shuttle passes back and forth through the warp shed, it releases thread from the bobbin and so forms the filling cloth.
Reed:
This is inevitably a combination made up of steel wire rods set vertically in a frame. The spaces between the wires are known as splits or dents and are kept even and parallel. This is the first function of reed. Its second function is to feed the filling thread into position. To do this it has to move in a back and forth motion. It attach the pick with fell of the cloth .
Cloth Roller:
The cloth beam, which holds the fabrics , is located at the front of the machine . The produced fabric are wind on this beam by take up motion.
Picker:
It is a parts which attach with a spindle. Its get motion from picking arm and this motion help the shuttle to passing one side to another side. It made by plastics.
Picking Stick or Arm:
It is a wooden arm or stick which give motion on the picker.
Temple:
The parts at the edges of the cloth which supports to maintain fixed dimension in width.
Lease Rod:
Another guiding device it is for the warp yarns. These are two sorts of wooden or glass rods set between the whip rolls and the heddles. Alternating warp threads can be kept separate by passing over and under these rods.
