Abstract
An arrangement comprises heald frames, linear drives and coupling apparatus that are collected together in groups. The linear drives of each group are arranged in a staggered fashion and form a drive unit. The coupling apparatus are executed in such a manner that the staggering within a group can be selected. With this arrangement an ideal ratio of drive power to required space is achieved. In addition, the elements forming a group are interchangeable.
