AWT-250 offers upto 8 Color Pick-at-Will weft insertion, so that you can weave the fanciest of fabrics to be offered to your customers. Such versatility can set you apart from rest of the competition in your market. The pick-at-will system is computerised and microprocessor controlled, hence letting you programm sequences of more than 1,00,000 picks. Such technological edge will definitely give you an edge in the market.

Start-Mark Prevention System
AWT-250 realises the most delicate need of rapier users to prevent start-marks in weaving. The custom designed ‘HT-Drive’ motor of the machine supplies more than 150% torque for the first-pick to successfully prevent the start marks.

Lower per meter Costs
Considering 3 times more productivity with same space and even lesser amount of man power along with lower power consumption, it is quite obvious that AWT-250 can offer you lower production costs compared to conventional power-looms or even auto-shuttle change looms. Moreover continuous weft-insertion eliminates the need for investing in pirn-winding machines or even extra operators.

Lower Maintenance
Sturdy frame structure of AWT-250 compared to any other competitor offers much lower vibrations on the machine. Due to lower vibrations, there’s less wear-n-tear of rotating components and bearings resulting in lower maintenance costs. Also, centralised lubrication offered on the looms gives a single-point lubrication for the complete machine, thus further reducing the headaches of maintenance.

Shedding
Adding to the flexibility of AWT-150, the user can easily add and attach any of the shedding motions available in the market including:
• Dobby
• Jacquard

Take-Up
Universal 7-wheel Wretchet-n-Pawl semi-positive take-up is the most widely used and well established Take-Up system offered in rapiers around the world. The well designed take-up is capable of handling a weft-density of 4-120 picks/Inch.

Let-Off
The capability of AWT-250 to weave any and all kinds of fabrics has been created due to 3 different let-off options available with the machine depending on your fabric.

Negative Let-Off: A well accepted option for weaving very low density fabrics with extremely low counts of high deniers. Specially suited for Industrial fabrics.

Semi-Positive Let-Off: The most widely used let-off in the industry today especially for weaving highly delicate yarns like Silk, Bumberg, Viscose and finer counts of cotton.

Ruti-Type: For weavers of regular cotton-fabrics who’ve been used to highly versatile Ruti-Type let-off.
