Wire machines, braiding machines and weaving machines are all machines used to produce fabrics and cloth. Wire machines are typically used for the production of wire cloth. These machines consist of a frame structure to which a wire cloth is attached. A motor drives a spool core that feeds the wire through the fabric to weave the fabric. Wire machines are often used to make screens, baskets, cages, and other metal structures. Braiding machines are used to make braided fabrics, often used for engineering applications such as hoses, cables and wires. These machines have multiple bobbins that supply threads that are then fed through a braiding mechanism to produce the fabric. Looms are the most commonly used machines for making textiles. They have a horizontal bar called a loom on which the warp thread is attached. The weft thread is woven over and under the warp thread to make a fabric. There are many different types of looms, including hand looms, mechanical looms, and automatic looms.
