Loom Sensor Series Toyota Tsudakoma Picanol Dornier Itema Proximity Sensor Load Cell Replacement Part

Loom sensors convert physical conditions into the electrical signals that drive loom monitoring, machine protection and stop commands. Rotation, tension, position and presence are the four conditions a weaving machine has to know about at every instant, and each one is read by its own sensor type: proximity sensors and proximity switches for rotation and position, load cells for tension, and sensor glass or hand protector units for presence and safety at the insertion side.

This series covers those sensor positions across Toyota, Tsudakoma, Picanol, Dornier and Itema looms. The housing is dustproof, vibration-resistant and wear-resistant, which matters because a loom sensor fails in two ways: the electronics give up, or contamination and vibration make a working sensor report a false condition. A sealed, damped housing is what keeps the second failure mode out of the mill for longer.

Every sensor passes strict aging and function testing before delivery. That is the basis of the long service life and low failure rate, and of the saving that matters most in practice: fewer unplanned stops and less frequent spare-part replacement on the same position.

Signal types: rotation, tension, position and presence

Used for: loom monitoring, machine protection and stop commands

Typical users: weaving mills, loom repair workshops and spare-parts distributors

Please send your loom brand, model, the sensor position and a photo of the existing part before ordering. Sensor bodies often look alike between positions, so a photo avoids the wrong item being shipped.

Five loom brands covered: Toyota, Tsudakoma, Picanol, Dornier and Itema

Dustproof, vibration-resistant and wear-resistant housing for continuous weaving duty

Every sensor passes strict aging and function testing before delivery

Long service life and low failure rate, cutting frequent spare-part cost

Video outgoing inspection for every batch, one year warranty on manufacturing defects

Every sensor aged and function tested before delivery, not sample tested per batch

Output signal checked at the specified condition range, so the loom controller reads it as it read the original

Housing sealed and checked for dust ingress, vibration resistance and wear on the sensing face

Brand, model and sensor position marked on the packing, so mixed-brand orders are not confused at the loom

Video outgoing inspection recorded for every batch, and the video can be sent with the shipping documents

One year warranty against manufacturing defects; damage from wrong model selection, improper wiring or mechanical impact is excluded

Minimum order quantity: from 2 pcs

Delivery lead time: 1-3 days after order confirmation

Mixed-brand and mixed-position orders can be combined: list brand, model, sensor position and quantity per item

Express shipping: DHL / FedEx / UPS, with air freight and sea freight for larger orders

Neutral export packing by default; private-label packing available on request

Payment terms: L/C, D/A, D/P, T/T, Western Union

Export documents: commercial invoice and packing list supplied with every shipment

Q1: How do I know which sensor my loom position needs?

A: Send the loom brand and model, the position (rotation, tension, presence or safety), the original part number and a photo. Sensor bodies can look similar between positions, so the photo is what confirms the match.

Q2: What does a load cell do on a Picanol loom?

A: It measures warp tension and feeds that signal to the loom controller, which uses it to hold tension stable. A drifting load cell shows up as tension variation across the warp width.

Q3: Why does housing sealing matter so much on a loom sensor?

A: Most sensor faults in a weaving mill are not electronic failures but contamination and vibration. A dustproof, vibration-resistant housing keeps the sensing face clean and stable, which is what keeps the failure rate low.

Q4: Are these original OEM sensors?

A: No. They are aftermarket sensors matched to the original signal behaviour and mounting, interchangeable with the OEM part but not branded by the loom maker.

Q5: Are the sensors tested individually?

A: Yes. Every sensor passes aging and function testing before delivery, and a video outgoing inspection is recorded for every batch.

Q6: What is the minimum order quantity and the lead time?

A: MOQ is 2 pcs and the delivery lead time is 1-3 days after order confirmation.

Q7: What warranty do you offer?

A: One year against manufacturing defects. Damage from wrong model selection, improper wiring or mechanical impact is not covered.

Q8: Can I combine different sensors in one order?

A: Yes. Different brands and positions can be shipped together. Please list brand, model, position and quantity per item so the packing is marked correctly.
