Installment VI of a series by Dr. H. Grothe reviewing weaving machinery shown at the 1873 Vienna Exhibition. It opens with George Hodgson's ring-and-bobbin shed-forming apparatus for making selvage borders, then surveys power looms by British, American, Swiss, French, Belgian, German and Austrian exhibitors (Hodgson, Livesey, Platt Brothers, Schoenherr, Crompton and others), with notes on picks per minute, floor space and power needs. It also covers heald knitting machines, reed-making machines and a wire-weaving loom, and ends with a list of looms by class of cloth.
