Weaving process

                                  Weaving Process, Weaving Cycle 

Weaving process: The process by which producing fabric in interlacing warp and weft thread is known as weaving process.

Loom/ Weaving Machine: The machine used for weaving is know as  Loom/weaving Machine.

                                                   Weaving Cycle 

Weaving cycle mainly three types 

This three motion are required in the Loom for Weaving.

1. Primary motion

• Shedding
• Picking
• Beat up 

2. Secondary Motion 

• Take up
• Let off

3.Tertiary Motion 

• Warp and weft stop motion 
• Warp and weft protector

Some Important Definition 

• 1. Shedding: The space between two yarn sheets  is called shedding.

Or
      Separating the warp yarns into two layers lifting  and lowering the shafts , to form a tunnel known as shed.

In conclusion we can say that, The shedding is a operations by which the warp yarn is divided into two parts so that sufficient gap is created between for passage of the weft from one side of the loom of the other.


2. Picking: Picking is the operations to transfer the pick (weft) from one side to another side of the loom to the other.

Or
Passing the weft yarn (pick) across the warp threads through the shed.

3. Beat Up: To position the newly inserted pick up to the cloth fell i.e. the boundary up to which fabric has been woven.

or

Beating-up occurs when the reed pushes the newly inserted weft against the fell of the cloth.

4. Take up: The warp yarns are unwound from the warp beam during the above three process.
