A jacquard loom
Named for Joseph M Jacquard, inventor of the Jacquard loom, which used a punched card to instruct the loom to weave a pattern in cloth Later applied to 68mm tape used to program automated embroidery machines Sea Automat
a fabric of intricate variegated weave or pattern
a highly figured fabric woven on a Jacquard loom French inventor of the Jacquard loom that could automatically weave complicated patterns (1752-1834)
A loom, which makes it possible to control each warp thread so that each and every warp end can be raised or lowered at, will to form an intricate design Originally controlled by a punched card system sometimes called the first computer, today the loom is fed by computer generated information that eliminates the cards, making design changes faster and more efficient
[n] a loom attachment of punch cards invented by Louis Jacquard that allowed weavers to create patterns of figures like flowers, people, buildings, or trees
Woven fabrics manufactured by using the Jacquard attachment on the loom This attachment provides versatility in designs and permits individual control of each of the warp yarns Thus, fabrics of almost any type or complexity can be made Brocade and damask are types of jacquard woven fabrics
A system of weaving that utilizes a highly versatile pattern mechanism to permit the production of large, intricate patterns Examples in our collection: "Libra", 100% Xorel, wallcovering, upholstery "Morning Glory", wallcovering "Rock Garden", upholstery "Secret Garden", cubicle fabrics
{i} type of fabric woven with a decorative pattern
Pertaining to, or invented by, Jacquard, a French mechanician, who died in 1834
a description of techniques used for knitting and weaving to obtain large-scale and/or figured designs (named after the inventor, Joseph Marie Jacquard, 1752-1834)
Joseph Jacquard invented this decorative weaving technique in 1804 A special loom is used to weave a pattern directly into the fabric; a costly process that produces an elegant cloth A fabric of intricate variegated weave or pattern
Type of woven or knitted fabric, which is constructed on a special machine that uses needle selection which results in intricate, complex all-over designs Single knit jacquards are commonly knit with two separate colored yarns that are knit together in a row Double knit jacquards are knit with up to five separate colored yarns across a row Double knits are generally much more intricate, more colorul and yet heavier (mostly used in long sleeve product) Woven jacquard fabrics include brocade, damask and tapestry
In fabrics, jacquard is a design created by weaving differently colored threads together
A pattern knit or woven into a fabric; either a surface effect, or a pattern produced with coloured yarns In common useage, jacquards tend to be heavier patterns than pointelles Jacquards come and go in popularity - like everything else!
A design or pattern in the fabric and/or collar
A loom which makes it possible to control each warp thread so that each and every warp end can be raised or lowered at will to form an intricate design Orginally controlled by a punched card system sometimes called the first computer, today the loom is fed by computer generated information that eliminates the cards, making design changes faster and more efficient
Fabric woven on looms using " cards " to determine layered textured patterns
Intricate weaving creating complex designs in the fabric Weight: - popular
A soft, light weight silk fabric with a woven tone-on-tone design which reads in reverse on the wrong side
The jacquard patterns are made by the loom invented by Joseph Marie Jacquard of France It uses a punch card similiar to a piano and produces a variety of decorative designs Some of the patterns have specific names such as brocade, damask, and tapestry
a highly figured fabric woven on a Jacquard loom
A type of woven fabric where an intricate design is incorporated into the weave
French inventor of the Jacquard loom that could automatically weave complicated patterns (1752-1834)
a loom with an attachment for forming openings for the passage of the shuttle between the warp threads; used in weaving figured fabrics
Jacquard loom
Loom incorporating a special device to control individual warp yarns. It enabled production of fabrics with intricate woven patterns such as tapestry, brocade, and damask, and has also been adapted to the production of patterned knitted fabrics. Developed in France by J.-M. Jacquard in 1804-05, it used interchangeable punched cards that controlled the weaving of the cloth so that any desired pattern could be obtained automatically. It aroused bitter hostility among weavers, who feared that its labour-saving capabilities would deprive them of jobs; the weavers of Lyon not only burned the machines but attacked Jacquard as well. Eventually the loom's advantages led to its general acceptance, and by 1812 there were 11,000 in use in France. Use of the loom spread to England in the 1820s and from there virtually worldwide
jacquard loom
Loom equipped with device for weaving figured fabrics The Jacquard attachment consists of mechanism controlled by perforated cards which cause warp threads to be lifted in proper succession for producing figure
jacquard loom
a loom with an attachment for forming openings for the passage of the shuttle between the warp threads; used in weaving figured fabrics
jacquard loom
a weaving machine that uses programmed instructions from punch cards to manipulate the warp yarns, one by one, to produce intricate and highly stylized patterns in cloth
jacquard loom
So called from Jos Marie Jacquard, of Lyons, who invented this ingenious device for weaving figures upon silks and muslins (1752-1834 )
Joseph-Marie Jacquard
born July 7, 1752, Lyon, Fr. died Aug. 7, 1834, Oullins French inventor. In 1801 he demonstrated an automatic loom incorporating revolutionary new technology; it was declared public property in 1806, and Jacquard was rewarded with a pension and a royalty on each machine. His loom utilized interchangeable punched cards that controlled the weaving of the cloth so that any desired pattern could be obtained automatically. The Jacquard loom's technology became the basis of the modern automatic loom and a precursor of the modern computer. His punched cards were adapted by Charles Babbage as an input/output medium for his proposed analytical engine and by Herman Hollerith to feed data to his census machine, and punched cards were used for inputting data into early digital computers
