Trade article from The Melliand describing the Draper Corporation's new Model S-4 patent silk loom, built 52 or 54 inches between swords. It covers the reinforced frame, sand and cloth roll bearings, shuttle box and picker mechanisms, optional roller bearings, the side plate and sliding gear box motions, the movable reed, the cone harness motion for taffeta weaves, the Midget feeler, and the take-up and removable cloth roll features that prevent starting marks. Two illustrations show the loom with 2 x 1 box motion and dobby, and with cone motion for taffeta.
