A greater number of cycles have been introduced for this reason, along with complex features like pre-setting drop wire magazines and CNC axes for modifying the heald length. Several accessories can drastically cut down on conversion times.
Several guests seized the opportunity to participate in a WarpMasterPlus demonstration at the ITME.
