    Picking

    - Picking is the process of inserting the weft yarn through the warp yarns during weaving. It can be done using various mechanisms like cone over-pick, cone under-pick, and side lever/shaft under-pick. - Cone over-pick mechanisms use a picking cam on the bottom shaft to rotate a picking shaft and swing the picking stick over the loom to throw the shuttle. Cone under-pick mechanisms operate similarly but with the picking stick located below the shuttle trajectory. - The type of picking mechanism used depends on factors like loom size, fabric weight, and desired production speed.

    Picking

    • Picking is the second primary motion in weaving.


    • The action of inserting weft yarn through the warp
    yarns is called picking.
    Objective of Picking
    • To push the weft carrying element (shuttle, projectile
    or rapier) or the weft yarn along the correct path
    maintaining requisite velocity through the shed in
    order to provide lateral sets of yarns in the fabric.
    The functions of picking mechanism are:
    1.To deliver the shuttle along the correct flight length.
    2.To throw the shuttle at a predetermined speed.
    Types of picking mechanism
    • Conventional or negative mechanism
    • Unconventional or positive mechanism
    Conventional or negative mechanism
    • It is normally used for shuttle loom
    Unconventional or positive mechanism
    • It is normally used for shuttless loom
    Classification of Conventional or negative mechanism or Shuttle
    Picking Mechanism
    •Shuttle picking mechanisms are broadly classified as
     Over pick mechanism
     Cone over-pick mechanism
     Under-pick mechanisms.
     Side lever under-pick mechanisms
     Side shaft under-pick mechanisms
     Cone under-pick mechanisms.
    • Parallel pick and
    • Link pick.
    Cone Over-Pick Mechanism
    A picking cam attached to bottom shaft displaces the cone
    (picking cone) which is attached with the upright picking shaft.
    This causes rotation of the picking shaft.
    As a result, the picking stick, which is attached to the
    uppermost end of picking shaft, swing in a horizontal plane
    over the loom and transmits the motion to shuttle through
    picking strap and picker guided by a spindle.
    Picking strap is a leather or polymeric belt which is flexible.
    Here picker is constrained by the spindle to move in a straight
    line which otherwise would have followed a path of arc.
    Obviously, this restriction of path is achieved at the expense of
    some energy.

    Moreover, pairs of picking cam and follower installed at
    either end of the loom have seldom ensured picking of
    equal strength (force).
    The cams responsible for impulsive rotation of the picking
    stick receive motion through bottom shaft. However,
    allied system of picking is having varying elastic behavior
    (one of them is attached through a “stiff” short shaft while
    that at the further end through a long “flexible” one).
    All these warrant frequent adjustment of picking-strap or
    picking cam and nose settings.
    A system where a different cam and follower pairs are
    used for each end makes the matter work enduringly with
    standardized settings.
    Features of Over Picking Mechanism:
    1.Picking arm is over shuttle.
    2.Suitable for narrow loom.
    3.Higher picks per minute
    4.Less power required.
    5.Works more smoothly.
    6.Shortening the picking strap and changing the
    shape of the cam can increase picking force.
    Cone Under-Pick Mechanism
    Here also a picking cam attached to bottom shaft displaces
    the cone turning the picking shaft (side shaft) located
    horizontally.
    The other end of the picking shaft is connected with upright
    picking stick through the picking strap (lug strap).
    This causes the picking stick to move in a vertical plane
    and transmits the motion to shuttle by the picker attached at
    the upper end of it.
    In this system the picking stick and other appendages are
    located below the shuttle trajectory while picking cams and
    follower, as usual, below the loom and driven from bottom
    shaft.
    The system is naturally suitable for automatic
    looms. Here picker slides over its spindle and
    picking timing is regulated by cam adjustment
    like in over pick motion.
    An almost inextensible lug strap allows shuttle
    speed adjustment by either raising or lowering
    it around picking stick.
    Absence of stretchable parts in under-pick
    system ensures the retention of correct setting
    over long period in contrast with the cone over-
    pick mechanism.
    Features of under picking mechanism:
    1.Picker arm is placed under the race board.
    2.Suitable for wider loom.
    3.Under picking works less smoothly.
    4.More direct action.
    5.Rough in action.
    6.More clean mechanism.
    7.Consumes more power.
    8.Used for heavy weight fabrics in silk and rayon
    looms.
