  • Abstract:
  • A power loom is a mechanized loom powered by a line shaft and alcohol, and was one of the key developments in the industrialization of weaving during the early Industrial Revolution. The main components of the loom are the warp beam, heddles, harnesses, shuttle, reed, and take up roll. In the loom, yarn processing includes shedding, picking, battening and taking-up operations. In POWER LOOM, weft filling process in done on stretched warp fabric. The shuttle of yarn is continuously moved for weaving; the yarn is weaved in loop on both ends. There is two major problems in power loom that is empty bobbin detection and weft cut detection, because of that the quality and cost of material decreases. For empty bobbin detection, the sensor detect the bobbin is near to empty, then it gives indication through LED and move towards the one end of the loom and replace bobbin. For weft cut detection, when the weft is cut then it gives indication through LED and loom will stop.
