P7300HP — a high-performance projectile weaving machine

The abbreviation “HP” stands for “High Performance”, which in itself expresses the greatest differ-ence between this model and its predecessor. The performance increase has been achieved by redesigning the projectile circuit and optimizing the motion sequences of all components. Despite the higher insertion rate, weft strain is not significantly increased. Thanks to design modifications, the shed remains open longer during each machine revolution. This allows insertion of more picks per minute at the same weft speed.
