Alors qu'il y a quatre ans, la flexibilité se traduisait par le développement de dispositifs mécaniques tels que les « QSC » (changement rapide d'articles), l'accent est davantage mis sur la flexibilité, grâce à une assistance électronique (multi-motorisation, capteurs, système de régulation, variation de vitesse, variation de duitage...).%At ITMA in Milan, four years ago, flexibility offered by the weaving machinery makers sought flexibility through mechanical devices such as QSC (Quick Style Change). At ITMA 99 in Paris, flexibility was more specially offered through electronic and other systems designed to help the weaver. The systems noted were for example individual drives, probes, detectors, systems to improve regularity, variable speeds, variable pick density. Computerised systems now allow the weaver to download specialised textile software or to place spare parts orders.
