Air-Jet Loom Maintenance and Nozzle Care
topic
Air-jet loom maintenance priorities include main nozzle and relay nozzle cleaning to remove fibre and finish deposits that reduce air velocity and insertion performance, profiled reed cleaning from lint accumulation in the insertion channel, accumulator drum cleaning and yarn feeler calibration, and compressed air system filter and dryer maintenance ensuring oil-free dry air supply that prevents nozzle deposit formation and moisture-related insertion inconsistency.
Role
Maintains air-jet insertion performance at design levels throughout loom service life by preventing the gradual performance degradation from nozzle fouling and reed channel contamination that reduces insertion reliability and forces machine speed reduction to compensate, with systematic maintenance programme implementation maintaining the high insertion rate and efficiency that justifies air-jet loom investment.
