Abstract:

In order to develop a simple weaving method of three-dimensional spacer fabric using the conventional rapier loom, and to solve the friction and clamping problems between the yarns caused by the high warp density when weaving three-dimensional fabrics, the paper puts forward a modification scheme of double-shed on the existing conventional rapier looms, and designs the heald frame structure and the heald threading process of the loom. The results show that reasonable equipment improvement and process design effectively facilitates the weaving of three-dimensional spacer fabrics, and the heald frame motion design is able to effectively control the structure formation of three-dimensional spacer fabrics. In order to make the three-dimensional spacer fabric have better forming effect in practical production, critical height model of three-dimensional spacer fabric was constructed. Relevant production data were introduced to check the critical height of three-dimensional spacer fabrics, which provides a theoretical basis for process design in practical production.

Key words: three-dimensional spacer fabric, rapier weaving machine, fabric design, weaving process, double-shed
