The study considers the impulse-momentum method for the analysis of the narrow loom with
impulsive force and discontinuous velocities. The system equation of motion is analyzed to determine the main
body velocities used for the system variables without introducing rotational coordinates or the turning effect
of the system follower on the beater. Discontinuities in the velocity are observed when an impact force results
from the beat-up action of the beater on the weft-yarn. Formulation between the velocity jump and displacement
is presented for the system response. The impact phenomenon is characterized by the rise in the system velocity
resulting from the vibration propagation through the system. The velocity is observed to increase as the system
displacement response increases. This is typical of a high speed mechanism of this type mostly used in the
textile industry if not controlled.
Key words: Beater, beat-up, impact, impulse, momentum, multibody, system
