We've just finished building our second Technical Education Loom (TEL) and are proud to say there's no other loom like it in the world. At 8.5' tall and weighing close to 900 lbs., this custom Jacquard loom does 3D weaving (up to 1/2" thick) and will be used to train workers in the aerospace industry who make parts for jet engines in planes. Its custom features include:
- Rapier system designed specifically to work with technical fibers (fiberglass and Kevlar)
- 1200 hooks with 8" weaving space (150 EPI)
- Push-button shed (no treadles, no foot pedal)
- Digital automatic warp advance
- Digital control panel
- CE mark for sale in EU countries
