INNOVATION IN CARPET WEAVING

Handmade carpets and kilims used in the looms is very important to address the user. It is possible to explain this with the ergonomic concept expressed in many fields. In other words, the more ergonomic a machine is, the more useful it is for the user. In addition, the cost of producing hand-woven carpets and kilims and the cost of production, therefore, the production time resulting from the worker is dependent on two components.

With the innovation in kilim and carpet weaving system, the labor cost in production can be reduced and the cost of production can be minimized. For this purpose, comb mechanism can be developed to throw weft between the knot. It can be considered that the proposed comb mechanism accelerates production by adjusting the carpet according to the node frequency. With the addition of the comb mechanism to the looms in carpet weaving, production is achieved at a lower cost, while production errors are minimized and almost eliminated. It is important to reflect the technological development to carpet and kilim weaving as it is in every job.

Some techniques may be used according to the raw material used in kilim and carpet weaving. For example, some of the technical characteristics of silk carpets, colors, patterns, quality and weaving techniques may vary. It is seen that the most frequently used yarns used in the production of silk carpets as raw materials are made of silk or silk spills and there is a possibility to supply enough raw materials for the production of silk carpets. It is determined that the number of twisting of the yarns used in silk carpets is higher than the yarn yarn. The average thickness of the silk floor was at least 98,22 denier with a maximum of 597,19 denier. In general, it is seen that some carpet yarns used in some silk carpets are supplied from certain regions. It is also stated by those who see that they are less subtle than those used in some type of silk carpets. In this context, it is stated that the carpets produced have their appearance which can be considered aesthetically flawless from the values ​​of the determined dimension and height / width ratios. In addition to improving the social conditions and working conditions of carpet weavers, the necessary supports should be provided by taking into consideration the benefits that hand-woven carpet can provide to the national economy.
