To control the rotation (advance) of the warp beam, Leclerc developed a simple add-on feature to insure the warp beam will advance at the same speed as the cloth beam when advancing the fabric with the cloth take-up handle.
This friction system is completely adjustable and can be released when winding the warp on.
Just screw the handle in to increase the friction or unscrew it to release.
This system is now a standard feature on all our Nilus, Nilus II, Colonial, and Weavebird loom models.
Leclerc has developed a retrofit kit that is available for existing looms.
