Geotextile Production on Wide Projectile Looms
topic
Woven geotextile production on wide projectile looms weaves flat or fibrillated polypropylene tape yarns in plain or leno weave at 5.4 metre machine widths, producing fabric widths up to 5.0 metres for road base reinforcement, slope erosion control, and drainage separation applications, with high-volume production at low cost per square metre being the primary economic requirement that wide projectile looms satisfy more economically than narrower alternatives.
Role
Enables economical production of wide geotextile fabrics at the low cost per square metre required for civil engineering applications where geotextile material cost is a significant project budget item, with wide projectile loom productivity for geotextile production being governed by tape yarn insertion reliability at high speeds in the specific weave density and construction required for different geotechnical applications.
