An air-jet loom is a shuttleless modern
loom that uses a jet of air to propel the
weft yarn through the shed. It is one of
two types of fluid-jet looms, the other
being a water-jet loom, which was
developed previously.

 Let off is done electrically.
 An electric motor is used to
perform this action.
 Let off motion is very important to
maintain accurate warp tension
 Speed of let off motor gradually
increases with the decrease of
beam dia.

Warp Stop motion
 It is constituted with
drop wire and
electrode.
 When drop wire fall

 Filling yarn is detected
by a filling detector.
 FD is constructed with a
light emitting diode and
photo electric sensor .
 The filling yarn interrupt
the continuity of light

 Bobbin breakage
 Leno breakage
 Catch cord breakage
 Batcher stop

It is difficult to predict machine operating
temperatures, as these depend on machine running
times, machine efficiency, ambient temperature and
load on the machine (fabric, number of frames,
etc.).
Recommended Machine Temperatures:
 The normal machine oil temperature should be less
than 55°C;
 The Dobby temperature should be less than 65°C;
 The cam motion temperature should be less than
60°C;
 And the let off temperature should be less than
50°C.
