Wide application of rapier accessories

Rapier loom accessories are a kind of accessories for shuttleless looms. Its price is lower than other looms, and its application range is also wide. In the production process, the high-speed weft insertion of the rapier loom makes the consumption of the rapier and the rapier belt account for more than half of the total material consumption of the rapier loom. Therefore, how to effectively avoid the wear of the rapier and the rapier belt of the rapier loom accessories and prolong their service life plays a vital role in saving production costs, improving product quality, and enhancing product market competitiveness.

The rapier head and rapier belt of the rapier loom accessories are the key components for the rapier loom to complete the task of weft insertion. The transmission between the rapier belt and the rapier wheel of the rapier loom is a special kind of belt transmission: the rapier belt has a rectangular hole, and during the transmission process, both the tooth root part and the contact teeth of the rapier belt hole wall are engaged. During the weft insertion process of the rapier loom, the weft yarn is always actively controlled by the rapier, which makes the weft insertion error less and the reliability is high. Once the rapier is worn, it will lead to the failure of weft insertion, and even cause a large number of warp yarn breaks in severe cases, affecting the quality of the cloth surface.
