Air Weft Insertion

Assembly

The compressed-air system that flies the weft across: a main nozzle launches it from a measured length, relay nozzles in the reed channel keep it moving, and air tanks and fast valves time each blast. A full specification article for this item is being written. Meanwhile its bill of materials and connections are below.
