Selection array
Replace with: how the offset solenoid mount selects hooks at the density required for 128-thread control.
CAD / prototype hero image
Solenoid mount close-up01 / machine architecture
An elegant, customisable automated loom for accessible textile prototyping.
System architecture
Placeholder: make the machine legible in under 45 seconds. Explain selection, insertion and compaction as a cycle; leave detailed engineering for the portfolio.
Replace with: how the offset solenoid mount selects hooks at the density required for 128-thread control.
Replace with: how the chosen shed is threaded and how the mechanism repeats without hand operation.
Replace with: how the beater stabilises each row to create a consistent woven output.
Replace with proof
Drop in an annotated render showing the three major subsystems.
Close crop of the offset 8-high actuator geometry.
Screenshot/mockup of drawing, conversion and run state.
Business model scaffold
Placeholder: hardware sales first, then consumables, repair/second-hand, education kits, and an optional marketplace where owners can offer woven outputs or pattern files.
Hero copy to finalise
Use the supplied summary, but shorten to one or two lines. Mention customisable automated loom, arbitrary pattern/design, and 128+ actuators only if it still sounds elegant.
Problem block
Explain the gap between delicate/labour-intensive hand weaving and expensive high-volume industrial weaving. Keep it about accessibility, capital cost, and rapid prototyping.
Workflow block
Describe the user drawing/importing a desired product, the UI converting it into a suitable pattern, and the loom iterating selection, insertion and compaction cycles automatically.
Scale block
Use your scale sentence here once verified. Good for a metric card, not a long paragraph.
