Loom Harness Driving Shafts from Japan
Loom harness driving shafts transmit motion from the dobby or Jacquard mechanism to the heald frames, ensuring synchronized lifting of warp yarns during weaving. These precision-machined shafts are made of hardened steel to withstand millions of weave cycles and are essential parts of weaving machines. They are classified under this tariff item as parts of weaving machines or their auxiliary machinery.
