Sumo main motor
Picanol introduced the Sumo main motor in 1999 on its Gamma rapier machine. It drives the weaving machine directly, without clutch or brake. The Sumo motor soon proved to have the highest performance of any weaving machine drive train on the market and its success led Picanol to use it as the standard motor on all its weaving machines. Machine speed is set and controlled electronically, which makes it easy to obtain the highest industrial speed in function of the quality of the yarn, the number of frames, and the fabric construction.
