Abstract: The method for weaving low flaw cloths (4) comprises an elimination of weft thread sections which have irregularities (22, 22). The method is carried out by means of a weaving machine (1) which in the presence of an irregularity on a weft thread (2) to be woven can be controlled in such a manner that at least one weft thread section which comprises the irregularity can be removed from the cloth being formed after an insertion operation. The irregularity is in each case detected by a sensor (23a, 23b, 23c) prior to the feeding in of the weft thread into a thread store (21). After the detection of the irregularity an incorporation of the weft thread into the cloth is prevented in that a shed forming apparatus (100), for example a dobby for the moving of heald frames (10), is controlled in such a manner that that all warp threads (3) of the cloth to be formed are deflected either downwardly or upwardly into positions to the side of a weft thread insertion line (2′.

Abstract: The heddle according to the invention is provided at the level of each of its ends with at least two sections for simultaneous bearing on corresponding surfaces formed on a traction bar fast with a crossbeam of a heddle frame. These sections and surfaces allow the transmission of an effort of traction exerted by one of the crossbeams on the heddle. They are offset in a direction substantially parallel to a longitudinal axis of the heddle and to an axis of the uprights of the frame.

Abstract: A woven article of furniture in the nature a floor covering is formed from a weave of woven polymer yarns which include twisted yarns for the weft and/or warp yarns. The floor covering is heat set to provide dimensional stability during the intended use of the floor covering.
