(57) An electronic apparatus that integrates shaft and Jacquard shedding of warp yarns. Each shaft consists of a split frame with symmetrical top and bottom segments. The healds, suspended on the warp threads, are placed between the segments of the frame. The top segment of the frame moves reciprocally up and back to the neutral position and the bottom segment moves reciprocally down and back to the neutral position. Each heald is engaged by a mechanism like an electro-magnetic unit either to the top segment or to the bottom segment hence it moves up or down respectively. The total movement of the healds is positively controlled by one of the segments of the frame.
