Abstract

In a shed-forming system of a weaving loom the drive shaft thereof is driven by an independent motor with controlled variable input which will depend upon the weaving program, the current forces on the components of the shed-forming system and constant forces inherent in the shed-forming system operation and by a second input shaft which synchronizes the drive shaft with the principal drive shaft of the loom.
