Abstract
A series-shed weaving machine which has a machine frame. A warp beam and a weaving rotor are mounted on the frame and a reference plane extends between the axes of the warp beam and the rotor. A warp module is defined by a first subassembly, which includes an arrangement for warp run components of the machine, and a second subassembly, which includes an arrangement for cloth run components of the machine. It is mountable on the frame in first and second orientations in which one of the arrangements is on one side of the reference plane and the other one of the arrangements is on the other side of the reference plane and vice versa, respectively. Depending on whether the arrangement for the warp run is above or below the reference plane, the warp beam rotates in the clockwise or the counterclockwise direction, respectively.
