Abstract

An apparatus for severing a weft thread which is to be inserted into a shed comprises a clamping device with a stationary clamping part and a settable clamping part in order to hold back the weft thread and a severing device in order to sever the weft thread after release by the clamping device. The severing of different yarn types is ensured by means of a problem-free clamping of the weft thread in the thread clamp.
