Abstract

A warp thread control system for forming the loom shed as a first control section (1) and a second warp control section (16). The first section is equipped with at least one guide element (2) for guiding the leno threads (3) and a guide rod (4) carrying a multitude of passages 6 arranged and parallel to one another for guiding the ground threads (5). The second warp control section (16) includes a thread detour element (17) for detouring the leno threads (3) and a needle bar (18) carrying a multitude of needles (19) with needle eyes (19.1) for guiding the leno threads (3). Both the first warp control section (1) and the second warp control section (16) are positioned on the side of the reed facing the warp threads whereby the positioning may differ either above or below a weaving plane (28) or partially above and partially below the weaving plane (28). Preferably but not necessarily both warp control sections are driven by a common drive (11).
