Abstract
A method and apparatus is provided for controlling and monitoring the cutting function of a thread cutter driven by an electric motor in looms. The monitoring of the cutting function is effected by monitoring the rotation of the motor shaft of the cutter drive. To accomplish this, a magnetic pick-up and a permanent magnet are used which are supported at relatively movable parts of the cutter drive.
