The warp beam and/or cloth beam of a loom is driven by a programmable stepping motor. The speed of the motor is regulated, preferably in such a way that the tension of the warp threads remains constant. Improved tension control is obtained by further programming the motor to take into account the type of weave in the fabric being produced. This is accomplished by inputting information pertaining to the distance covered by the warp threads between their intersections with neighboring weft threads. |
