PRESSURE HARNESS (Jacquard)
In this system of weaving damasks by the jacquard machine all the warp threads are drawn in the harness which controls them for pattern making only. Two, three or more contiguous threads are drawn in one mail of the harness, but the same warp threads are also drawn singly through the eyes of heald shafts which control them for the binding-weave. It is a combination of jacquard harness and heald shafts which considerably increases the figuring capacity of the machine and saves cards.
