AAS Healds vs. Negentec Healds vs. China Healds
| Feature | AAS Healds | Negentec Healds | China Healds |
|---|---|---|---|
| Number of Eyes | Two-eye design – If one eye breaks, the second provides backup, preventing downtime. | Single-eye design – If one eye breaks, the entire heald needs replacement, halting production. | Typically single-eye design, prone to complete failure if damaged. |
| Material Composition | Dual-material – One material provides lubrication, reducing wear, while the other adds strength and durability. | Single-material – Lacks lubrication, resulting in faster wear and reduced longevity. | Single-material – Faster wear and limited performance. |
| Parting Line | No parting line – Reduces friction, minimizing wear and thread breakage. | Parting line – Increases friction, leading to thread breakage and lower fabric quality. | Parting line – Increased friction and wear. |
| Production Efficiency | Highly efficient – Dual eyes, reduced friction, and smooth performance minimize downtime. | Reduced efficiency – Frequent thread breaks cause delays and production stops. | Low efficiency – High friction and thread breakage lead to delays. |
| Thread Breakage | Minimal breakage due to smooth design and reduced friction from dual-material construction. | Increased thread breakage due to parting lines and material wear. | Increased thread breakage, affecting fabric quality and production. |
| Fabric Quality | Superior fabric quality due to smooth heald performance and reduced thread breakage. | Lower fabric quality as thread breakage impacts the final output. | Fabric quality suffers due to increased thread breakage and friction. |
| Color & Yarn Compatibility | Two colors – Allows different yarn types in each eye for flexibility in weaving. | One color – Restricts use to a single yarn type, limiting versatility. | One color – Limits flexibility in pattern complexity and yarn usage. |
