Louet Megado Loom
Louet Megado Loom
The Megado is the largest dobby loom in the Louet collection and offers almost unlimited possibilities for weaving patterns up to 32 frames.
Doubby looms have a programmable shaft selector. They are different from the looms used in industry because preparing the warp and weaving requires the same process as other handlooms. The only thing the dobby does is select the frames. You can choose between a mechanical or electronic dobby system.
A mechanical dobby is a programme bar with pegs. The numbered holes in the programme bars correspond to the axes of the loom. If you want to lift a frame, you place a peg in the corresponding hole in the programme bar. The number of programme bars that make up the chain corresponds to your weaving pattern. However, if the number of programme bars becomes too large, you may want to consider an electronic dobby due to cost and functionality.
The electronic interface allows you to achieve almost unlimited frame combinations using the built-in Louet web interface software or a computer and third-party software from Fiberworks PCW, Patternland, Weavemaker, Weave It, WeavePoint, Winweef or Pro Weave, which work with the Louet electronic interface.
