Abstract
A method of manufacturing multiaxial thick woven fabrics (8) using healds (3) through which warps are passed, a shuttle (5) reciprocating so as to insert wefts (6) in a warp shedding portion (19) formed by the healds, a reed (9), and a woven fabric removing device (10). A large number of healds are provided in parallel in the direction of woven fabric removal. The shedding portion is formed by passing a plurality of warps so that predetermined thickness and width of the woven fabric are produced through the healds and by widely reciprocating the healds in the width direction, moving the shedding position sequentially from one side to the other side, inserting a weft sequentially in the shedding portion and arranging it by shifting the weft position in the width direction. A texture of the first row of predetermined width and thickness is formed by fixing warps. Multiaxial thick woven fabric of a continuous length is produced by performing shedding, weft insertion, and beating sequentially, so that when the shedding position shifts from the travel passage of the shuttle, the woven fabric removing device is moved vertically by an up and down motion rack in cooperation with the travel…
