The flying shuttle was invented by John Kay in 1733. Its purpose was to increase the efficiency of weaving by allowing a single weaver to operate a loom more quickly and produce wider fabrics. The flying shuttle enabled the shuttle carrying the weft thread to be passed back and forth across the warp threads with greater speed, significantly enhancing productivity in textile manufacturing.
