Abstract (en)

[origin: EP1087045A1] Requirements for at least two successive weft insertions are simultaneously fed back to the weft feeder (1) An Independent claim is included for the corresponding loom, operated as described. Preferred features: Weft demand for two successive insertions is transmitted back in this way, to a number of weft feeders. This demand is fed back to each weft feeder. More than two successive weft demands can be fed back to each weft feeder. Especially is the demand for 4, 8, 12 or 16 successive weft fiber introductions transmitted. The weft feeder includes a winder (6) wrapping the weft thread (3) around a storage drum (2). When winding in preparation for the stated demand, the rotary speed of the winder is at a controlled, low value; and/or acceleration and/or braking of the of the winder are effected slowly. Should one weft feeder fail, remaining units are controlled to satisfy weft demand.
