Design Introduction
Widely used in the textile industry, the air-jet loom is one of the fastest, shuttleless looms today. The
loom has significant control system requirements. With multiple tasks (for example, the ZA205 loom’s
control board needs 61 I/O ports) and demanding response time requirements, the control system’s
performance usually determines the air-jet loom’s capability. The loom usually needs to complete a
series of movements in a few milliseconds, such as opening, weft insertion,
