Abstract:
A method for producing a leno ground fabric having a given weaving width, said method comprising the following steps:a) providing a weaving loom with at least two leno heald frame s each having a frame length corresponding to said weaving width and including a multitude of lifting healds or heddles cooperating with half healds or heddles for forming leno loom sheds extending entirely across said weaving width;b) supplying to said healds first warps for forming leno warp threads;c) supplying to said healds second warps for forming ground warp threads;d) operating said lifting healds and s aid half healds for moving said leno warp threads transversely and up and down so that each leno warp thread alternately crosses a respective ground warp thread from one side of said respective warp thread to the opposite side of said respective warp thread and back again, and for lifting said ground warp threads vertically up and down for repeatedly forming warp sheds, ande) inserting at least one weft thread into each of said warp sheds for weaving said leno ground fabric over the entire weaving width of said weaving loom.
