Louet Julia





The best way to describe this wheel is a Victoria version of the S51DT. Bobbins, flyer and the Scotch tension are the same as on the Victoria.

There are four ratios, which are: 1:6, 1:8.5, 1:12.5, 1:19. An optional high speed set, which is also the same set as the Victoria uses, provides an extra 1:27 ratio and make it easier to treadle the 1:19 on the Julia.

A removable insert provides two orifice sizes (12mm and 8mm). All rotating parts run on ball bearings for smooth operation, while the unit itself is constructed out of beech and birch plywood, smoothly lacquered.

The Julia comes standard with a stand-alone 3 bobbin Lazy Kate with an adjustable brake.

Wheels are made of laminated hardwood with a "birch" exterior finish.

The base with treadles can be easily disassembled from the upright with the main wheel (unit does not fold) for easy transportation.

Retail Price: $750.00
Discounted Price: $675.00

Louet - David

David 70 (28")
The David, a unique sinking shed jack loom, has become a popular small floor loom on today’s market. Weaving on this loom gives you a real appreciation for the word balance. “Balance” is the key in this design. Louet engineers skillful design has created a sturdy, well-balanced and easy to treadle loom.

Technically, the David is a compactly constructed floor loom that takes less floor space, but still has many of the same features of a large floor loom. The “David” uses an ingenious but simple to understand system of springs and pulleys, which produces a generous shed with remarkably light treadling.
The David has a built-in raddle and shelf and comes standard with eight harnesses and ten treadles.

The tie-up is made to the metal parallel lams, which can be tied either singly or in combinations, allowing for unbalanced weaves not possible on the usual kind of sinking shed loom, the counterbalance type.

The David loom is made of lacquered beech, comes in one box (36" x 11" x 47", 77lbs) for economical shipping and is easy to assemble, following step by step instructions. (written by Sharon Alderman)

Included in the standard eight harness version are 10 treadles, 800 “Texsolv” heddles for David 70 and David 90, a stainless steel reed 40-10 (10 e.p.i.) 12 cm (5”) high, 2 lease sticks and 16 warp sticks, plus instructions.

Available options: Matching bench allowing you to move around unrestricted. Second warp beam, including extra backbeam. Sectional warp beam with sections of 2 and 4 cm (1” sections in North America). Friction brake device for the warpbeam.

David 90 (36")
The David 90 is also available in 36 inch weaving width. The back beam of this loom folds up to save space while the loom is idle. It also passes easily through any standard door frame.

Louet - Spring

Spring 90
The Louet “Spring” loom is one of the most innovative cleverly designed floor looms on the market today. It uses the Parallel countermarch system for the harnesses and lams, which is easy to use and simple to tie-up.

An exclusive feature to this loom is the patented moving breast beam controlled by springs. The breast beam is attached to the loom in such a way that it is free to move toward the harnesses when the shed is made and then back toward the weaver when the shed is closed again. The distance between the breast beam and the back beam actually changes during weaving. 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. The design of the loom includes a built-in raddle on top of the castle and a storage shelf for keeping everything you need within easy reach.

The Spring comes standard with 4 harnesses and 6 treadles, but gives the possibility to expand, by sets of 4 harnesses, to a maximum of 12 harnesses.The heddles and tie-up cords are of the Swedish Texsolv system that make them quite strong and non-stretching.
The spring has two weaving widths 90 cm (36”) and 110 cm (44”). (See below).
It comes standard with four harnesses, six treadles, 600 Texsolv heddles (Spring 90) and 800 Texsolv heddles (Spring 110), stainless steel reed 40-10 (10 e.p.i.) 12 cm (5”) inside height, friction brake, 2 lease sticks and 16 warp sticks. The “Spring” is made of lacquered beech and comes ready-to-assemble with clear instructions and tools.
Spring 90 (35") 8 shaft - Retail: $3,995.00
Spring 90 (35") 8 shaft - Discounted: $3,675.00
Spring 90 (35") 12 shaft - Retail: $4,600.00
Spring 90 (35") 12 shaft - Discounted: $4,235.00

Optional: matching bench, sectional warp beam with sections of 2 and 4 cm (1” in North America), second warp beam including extra back beam.

Louet - Delta

Delta 110
The Delta's treadles are hinged from the back allowing for a very light weight treadling action.
The DELTA is a modern parallel counter marche loom based on the HOLLANDIA, which it replaces, and the very successful SPRING. The DELTA is easily recognizable as the head of the LOUET line of Floor looms. Comfortable, robust and technologically advanced, but above all a weaver's loom. Warp tension can be adjusted by fine increments to insure the tension is just the way you want it. The floating breast beam insures tension is returned to exactly the same tension as you had before you advanced the cloth.

Tie ups are easy. Every treadle is tied to every harness which means you only have to depress one treadle at a time. All treadles work the same way across the full width of the loom because of the parallel system. Also, all lams are horizontal which makes changing tie-ups quick and easy. For individual comfort, blocks are available to adjust treadle height.
Harnesses are adjustable to allow you to create slack in the heddles for easier threading and tighten them for weaving.

The brake system on the DELTA is a friction brake system on the warp beam, which is sturdy and easy to operate. A convenient advancing system is provided on the cloth beam.

The DELTA is made of plantation grown ASH and is finished with a double coat of clear semi-gloss lacquer.

Some of the DELTA's features are: Modern parallel counter marche loom. "Floating breast beam". Large 4 inch shed obtained even with difficult yarns like linen. All harnesses are positively activated by the treadle. Swedish texsolv heddles are used with the DELTA. Built in Shelf. Built in raddle. Standard 8 shafts, expandable to 12 shafts. A cloth guard is built into the breast beam. Rear hinged treadles allow for very light operation.

Options: Bench, 4 harness extension, 2nd warp beam, sectional warp kit, additional treadles and fly shuttle mechanism.

Shipping information: We have found that most customers find the castle section of LOUET looms difficult to assemble correctly. That is why the Delta is delivered partially pre-assembled. The difficult castle section is one unit with the remaining warp beams, treadles, cloth guard, cloth beam, etc. coming in several separate boxes. Assembly of these pieces is required.

Delta 130
The Delta 130 is the same design as the Delta 110 except for its larger weaving width. A 4, 8 or 16 shaft version is available on special order only

Louet - Octado

Octado
Another great dobby weaving loom from Louët: 8 Shafts, 70 cm, 90 cm and 110 cm weaving width (28", 36” and 44”).
A dobby mechanism (programmable shaft selector) is an alternative for the tie-ups to the treadles on a standard hand weaving loom.Looms with 16 or more shafts need a dobby mechanism, because it becomes unmanageable to operate such a loom with treadles.

The successful introduction of the Megado dobby loom in 1998, and the reaction of weavers showed us that a dobby is not only necessary for a loom with many shafts, but it makes weaving so much more comfortable. Of course this also goes for looms with less than 16 shafts.

An 8-shafts jack loom requires an average of 40 tie-ups on the treadles. A counter marche requires 80 tie-ups. This needs to be done in a very uncomfortable position. With a dobby loom, you can say good-bye to the tie-ups!

An investment in a Louët dobby loom will allow you many years of comfortable weaving.

The new Octado has a similar operating method as the familiar Megado. This means a big counter marche shed and a very light treadling action. Again, easy on the weaver.

The Octado can be operated with a mechanical dobby, or with an electronic interface. The electronic interface works with most popular computer weaving software, includeing Fiberworks PCW, Patternland, PixieLoom, Weavemaker, Proweave and Weave It.

A full list of optional equipment is available:
Bench, second warp beam, sectional warp beam and flying shuttle.

The middle section of the Octado (where all the shafts are) comes completely assembled. A detailed instruction manual will help you to complete the assembly without any problems.

Louet - Megado

Megado
This innovative dobby loom is the flagship of the Louët family, and comes as a surprise to the complex weaver...Sorry, only the weaving is complex! The Megado is simple, easy to operate, and robust enough to handle all your projects.To create a shed, we invented a new system. The selected shafts and the back beam move in conjunction to create a countermarch shed.

The Megado is available in 28”, 44”, and 52” weaving widths. It can be purchased with either 16 shafts or 32 shafts. The lifting mechanism is incredibly light to operate, even when lifting most of the shafts.

The Megado can be purchased with either the mechanical dobby head or an electronic dobby. Several software packages that work with the Megado interface include: Fiberworks PCW, Patternland, PixieLoom, Weavemaker, Proweave and Weave It.

The Megado interface supports both PC and MacIntosh operating platforms. We also now offer a USB to serial converter for our interfaces.

The Megado is made of Ash hardwood and is finished with a double coat of semi gloss laquer.

Louet Dobby USB Files Please note that the interface works with either the serial port or the USB port.
The interface has a built-in serial to USB converter. To use the Interface through the USB port, first install the USB driver.
Click here to download the Louet Dobby USB driver for various operating systems. This will work with serial numbers begining with 2008.
Options available: 2nd warp beam, sectional warp kit, fly shuttle mechanism, bench.
