About weaving machines (looms); for weaving fabrics of a width 30cm or less

HS code 844610 covers weaving machines, also known as looms, that are used to produce fabrics with a width of 30 centimeters or less. This specialized machinery plays a crucial role in the textile industry, enabling the efficient and precise manufacturing of narrow-width fabrics. These weaving machines are essential for the production of a wide range of textile products, from apparel and home furnishings to industrial applications, contributing significantly to the global economy.

Production process

The production of weaving machines (looms) for fabrics of a width 30cm or less typically involves a multi-step process. First, the key components, such as the frame, shuttles, and heddles, are precisely engineered and assembled. The weaving mechanism, which controls the interlacing of the warp and weft threads, is then integrated into the loom. Advanced features, such as electronic control systems and automated thread-handling capabilities, may be incorporated to enhance efficiency and precision. Finally, the weaving machines undergo rigorous testing and quality control measures before being delivered to textile manufacturers.

Production inputs

The production of weaving machines (looms) for fabrics of a width 30cm or less requires a range of inputs, including high-quality steel and other metal alloys for the frame and moving parts, as well as specialized electronic components for the control systems. Additionally, the industry relies on skilled technicians and engineers to design, assemble, and maintain these complex machines. Ongoing research and development in areas such as materials science and automation also contribute to the advancement of weaving machine technology.

Production outputs

The primary output of HS code 844610 is the weaving machines (looms) themselves, which are then sold to textile manufacturers and weavers. These weaving machines are used to produce a wide variety of narrow-width fabrics, including 520100 Cotton, 540100 Synthetic filament yarn, and 560100 Wadding, felt and nonwovens, among others. The fabrics produced on these weaving machines are then further processed and incorporated into a diverse range of textile products, such as clothing, home textiles, and industrial applications.
