Abstract
An ultra-sonic weaving machine reed cleaner in which the cleaner is moved adjacent the weaving machine and the reed is cleaned without disturbing the thread-up of the warp yarn in the reed. The method of using the system includes inserting the reed into a washing bin and then into a rinsing bin both of which are ultra-sonically treated to enhance the cleaning of the reed. Then the reed is blown free of line and liquid and returned to its operating position in the loom.
