Weaving equipment refers to the tools and machines used to create fabric from threads or yarns. The most common type of weaving equipment is the loom, which interlaces threads in a specific pattern to produce textiles. Looms can be manual or powered, and they come in various sizes and designs, including hand looms and industrial looms. In addition to looms, other weaving equipment includes shuttles, which carry the weft thread across the warp threads, and warping boards, used to prepare the threads before weaving. Additional tools like scissors and measuring tapes are also essential for cutting and measuring fabric accurately.
