AVL's E-Lift technology is the most popular way to reduce leg fatigue when weaving. This mature technology was first introduced in the early 2000s and has been a huge help in extending the weaving life for many, including the aging and those with mobility issues.
E-Lift is an electrically powered harness lifting system for dobby looms. The E-Lift system replaces the treadles with a foot pedal or hand switch operated motor. It removes all physical requirements associated with treadling and is very easy to operate. It's a great option for wide looms, metal heddle shafts, 16+ shafts, and anyone looking to increase the longevity of their weaving.
The latest version of the E-Lift is version 3 launched in 2022. Exciting details include:
Features:
- Easy to operate, - one tap of the foot switch to open the shed.
- Quiet and quick operation.
- Electronic homing / calibration using only the foot pedal.
- Optional beater top-mounted hand switch.
- Firmware updates can be done remotely via AVL's support team.
