Abstract:
The sley of all existing weaving machines has a curvature movement. The curvature movement of the sley has so many disadvantages. The existed design of the sley gives high accelerations resulting in producing high noise levels as well as very little forces used for beating .Therefore high mechanical and electrical powers are needed for the existed design.
This work is the first approach to design a sley mechanism with a shoe at its bottom letting the sley to move in a linear movement rather than a curvature movement.
