Difference between Throw Shuttle and Fly Shuttle Looms

The throw shuttle is a loom in which the shuttle is thrown across the shed by hand. In a fly shuttle loom, the shuttle is sent across the shed by means of a mechanical picker. This is an improved type of loom, which increased three to four times the production of the weavers. It has all the advantages of the throw shuttle, except for, weaving intricate extra weft patterns.
