W Machine - Weft Yarn Carrier Qw
The yarn carrier plunger (A) is activated outside of the yarn carrier carriage and pushes the yarn carrier.
The weft yarn carrier is named "Qw".

Advantage:
- No additional system is required for the weft yarn.
- One system only inserts the weft yarn and encloses it.
- The additional system, necessary up to now, can be used for another needle action (enhanced productivity).

Working with Qw |
