Loomcontrol refers to systems and methods used to manage weaving looms, enabling automated, programmable, or semi-automated operation of fabric production. It encompasses hardware, software, and process logic that coordinate the key motions of a loom: warp let-off, shedding (the opening of the warp to form a shed), picking, beating-up, and take-up.
Modern loomcontrol relies on sensors, actuators, and a controller that interprets pattern data to produce the
Types of loomcontrol range from standalone systems to networked, factory-wide solutions that integrate with manufacturing execution
History and variants: early looms used mechanical cams or punched cards; electronic control emerged in the
