The Louet Spring II is one of the most innovative floor looms on the market today. It uses a parallel countermarch system for the harnesses and lams, which is easy to use and simple to tie-up.
The patented moving breast beam controlled by springs. and is attached to the loom in such a way that it is free to move toward the harnesses when the shed is opened and then back toward the weaver when the shed is closed. With this system a larger shed can be obtained with less tension increase in the warp and less effort from the weaver. The advantages of this system are especially evident as you near the end of the warp. Even when the end of the warp is very close to the harnesses, a good shed can be made, thus saving yards and yards of wasted warp over the life of your loom.
The moving breast beam also brings on exactly the same warp tension each time the warp is advanced.
