According to the special requirements on rapier loom's weft-insertion system for weaving three-dimensional( 3-D) fabric,a new rapier electronic weft-insertion system is presented. The design principle for 3-D loom's weft insertion system is introduced,including the design of the motion law of electronic weft-insertion system,the driving system's hardware configure,and its software's controlling principle. The weft insertion system is computer-controlled and servocylinder driven so as to control the rapier's movement to insert the weft into the multi-shed while 3-D weaving. This method greatly simplifies the weft-insertion system,achieves weft-insertion with variable travel,and improves the flexibility and reliability. The weft insertion system has been applied in a 3-D loom successfully.展开更多
