An air jet loom uses short quick bursts of compressed air to propel the weft through the shed in order to complete the weave. Air jets are the fastest traditional method of weaving in modern manufacturing and they are able to achieve up to 1200 picks per minutes. However, the amounts of compressed air required to run these looms as well as the complexity in the way the air jets are positioned makes them more costly than other looms.The spectacular debut will lead the new era of weaving.ZAX9100 Air Jet Loom The World's First "Weave Navigation System"With the newly designed air jet loom, anyone can easily weave high-quality fabric using the Weave Navigation System. In pursuit of the ultimate user-friendly loom, Tsudakoma developed the new ZAX9100 air jet loom.

The advantages of the ZAX9100 are shown below: Loom rpm: Increased 20% Air consumption: Reduced 10% Floor vibration: Reduced 35% Accessibility: Increased 20%(Compared with the conventional model)All parts of the ZAX9100 were re-thought: the frame structure, the beating, the weft insertion, the let-off, and the take-up motion. It is the premium air jet loom provided with the latest Weave Navigation System. It is expected to meet various challenges like cost competition, QR (quick response), value-added fabric weaving, and the development of a new product line that will increase in importance in the future.Careful attention has been paid to design the ZAX9100. Soft weft insertion with low pressure. Offset rocking shaft with less moment of inertia Hollow reed holderWith all these new designs the ZAX9100 thoroughly pursues high-speed ability.

Thus, Tsudakoma succeeded in reducing style change time 20%.Note: The figures are based on comparison with the conventional model. The figures are subject to change depending on fabrics and weaving conditions.

Toyota Industries develops and manufacturers air jet looms, which insert the weft yarn using air. We provide our customers all over the world with state-of-the-art weaving machinery that excels in speedy and reliable performance.JAT810 (Air Jet Loom)

Based on the underlying design concept of the JAT Series of Weaving the highest quality fabric at the lowest possible cost, the JAT810 boasts a diverse range of original Toyota features, including an Air-Saving System that reduces energy consumption and the new E-shed electronic shedding motion. In addition, a newly developed function panel and a factory management system dramatically improve operability.

Toyota Industries Begins Production of New JAT810 Air Jet Loom Seeking Energy Savings and Productivity to Meet the Needs of the TimesMain Features 1. 20% reduction* in air consumption compared to the previous model, through innovative weft insertion system 1) New sub-nozzle Weft insertion with less air usage is achieved by the optimization of the air stream angle and TICOs original nozzle aperture configuration. 2) TICOs original reed, JAT e-REED The optimized shape of the reeds tunnel allows the sub-nozzle to be located closer to the reed, thereby preventing the air stream from scattering, which enables air consumption for the weft insertion to be reduced. 2. Increased productivity through factory management3. Development of the TICO original E-shed electronic shedding device The independently-driven shedding technology developed by TICO enables faster weaving of complex fabrics, thus achieved both high-speed and versatility. 4. Adoption of a new function panel The large 12-inch panel allows large amounts of information to be displayed on a single screen, and adoption of swipe operation provides easier, more visual operability.

dornier:Filling control: The Triple Weft SensorThe patented and conceptually modular Triple Weft Sensor, consists of a first and second filling stop motion combined with the stretching nozzle. It guarantees precise filling control of even most subtle yarns. The first filling stop motion monitors thread arrival, the second one thread breaks during insertion.The distance between both filling stop motions can be adjusted in accordance with filling yarn elasticity. After reed beat-up the thread is taken up by the deflection nozzle so that the stretching nozzle remains always free for the next filling insertion.USB and Ethernet interfaceThe recording of pattern and product data, as also the loading of new configurations and software, is effected simply and conveniently via USB-Stick. The weaving machine can be linked with all customary operating data systems, or connected to a network, via an integrated mass-produced Ethernet interfaceORW technology can also be seen as a process for creating multiaxial fabrics for technical textiles.Arranging two axes driven independently allows weaving additional threads into the plain weave in any diagonal direction as 3rd or 4th thread systems. This adapts the position of the diagonal threads to the direction of active forces.Apart from the option of integrating additional thread systems in the plain weave across the complete fabric width, ORW technology is especially suitable to do this partially in order to integrate reinforcements required for specific fabric areas.Modular integration of the ORW unit retains the full productivity and unrestricted application spectrum of the weaving machine.

PICANOL!Picanol offers seven types of weaving machines the OptiMax, GT-Max and GTXplus with rapier technology, the OMNIplus 800, OMNIplus 800 TC, OMNIjet and now recently the OMNIplus-X with air-jet insertion technology. Together, these machines cover the full spectrum of textiles including apparel, household and technical fabrics. The high degree of digitisation of all these machines, together with their Sumo main drive, ensures a lower weaving cost, higher quality of the fabrics produced, greater flexibility and exceptional ease of operation in comparison with other weaving machines.Air tucker(for Omni,OMNIplusand OMNIplus800)Makes it possible to produce tucked selvedges in a more cost-efficient way. Fast and reversible transformation from leno to tucked selvedges.

Autospeed(for OMNIplusand OMNIplus800)With the new Autospeed feature, the insertion capacity of the main nozzles remains at its highest possible performance. While Autospeed keeps the arrival time of the filling yarns at a set value, by adjusting the air quantity going to the main nozzle, Autospeed continuously adapts the machine speed based on the air-friendliness of the filling yarn.

Balloon breaker(for all airjet machines)Reduces the balloon formation of the filling yarn between the prewinder and the main nozzle. Reduces the number of filling stops and air consumption. Easy filling detector(for Omni, Delta, OMNIplus,OMNIplus800, TERRYplusand TERRYplus800)Picanol has developed a new next to the reed filling detector that is mounted onto the reed holder: the Easy filling detector.Adaptive Relay Valve Drive (ARVD)(for OMNIplus, OMNIplus800, TERRYplusand TERRYplus800)Automatically adapts the opening and closing time of the relay nozzle valves to the behavior and airfriendliness of the filling yarn.

Adaptive Relay Valve Drive Plus (ARVDplus)(for OMNIplusand OMNIplus800)Automatically adapts the closing time of the relay nozzle valves to the behavior and airfriendliness of the filling yarn. ARVDplus can be switched on from the machine dispaly. When activated, ARVDplus will continuously monitor the main insertion parameters measured by the machine, such as the winding timings and filling arrival time
