This shedding mechanism includes a housing and a movable hook which can be retained by a selection device including at least one electromagnet (100) immobilized in the housing and which includes a ferromagnetic core (102) comprising first and second pole faces (S122, S124). The electromagnet (100) also includes a non-magnetic portion (104, 108) and a retaining lever configured to retain the movable hook. The retaining lever is pivotally mounted about an oscillation axis (A144) and includes a ferromagnetic armature (202) that interacts magnetically with the first and second pole faces. The non-magnetic portion of the electromagnet includes a surface (S144) for guiding the pivoting of the retaining lever. This guide surface cooperates with the retaining lever in a direction radial to the oscillation axis (A144) between a remote position and a contact position. The guide surface (S144) is cylindrical with a circular base, centered on the oscillation axis.

A machine and method are presented for continuously forming a woven composite with controllable internal fabric geometry. The machine may include one or more spools for dispensing one or more warp filaments, a roller assembly configured to receive a composite weave, a warp rack having a plurality of warp heads for engaging the warp filaments and vertically adjusting position to dynamically create a weave pattern in response to the insertion of one or more weft filaments by a weft inserter stack.

A warp shedding apparatus of a loom includes a plurality healds arranged in a weaving width direction of the loom. Each heald has a thread eyelet through which a ground warp yarn is passed and held. The healds are raised and lowered to form a shed. A difference in tension between raised ground warp yarns and lowered ground warp yarns held by the healds located in opposite end portions in the weaving width direction is greater than a difference in tension between raised ground warp yarns and lowered ground warp yarns held by the healds located in a central portion in the weaving width direction.
