Weaving Machines - All You Need to Know

Author: Ramesh Venugopal

Industrial knitting and weaving machines require energy-saving and high-performance fabric plaiting services through proper mechanics such as two-point contact spindles and inserts.

Circular knitting machines have the needles in a circular arrangement, thereby producing tube-shaped cloth materials. There can be a single-set machine or double set, where the former works with plain spinning and the latter can interlock woven materials.

A textile weaving machine, on the other hand, interlaces two thread sets, yarn or laces to form the fabric. The smooth process reduces tension between the threads and yarn breaks, therefore helping to control wastage and increase overall production.

How does it work?

The circular knitting machines are compact and function with the help of various mechanical parts. Each of these adds to the fabric knitting process on an industrial level:

  • Pulley belt: Controls the yard feed wheel rotation.
  • Brush: Makes sure to keep the pulley belt wheel.
  • Variable Dia for Quality (VDQ) Pulley: Makes sure to maintain the overall quality of the fabric.
  • Tension Disk: Allows minimal tension in the yarn through supply lines
  • Inlet and Outlet Stop Motion: If the yarn breaks mid processing, this mechanism halts the entire activity to negate hassles.

    • Similarly, a Textile Weaving Machine makes sure to manufacture fabric through efficient yarn usage. There are 3 stages of a textile weaving machine, the primary, secondary and auxiliary motions:

    • Primary Motions: The machine separates the threads into different layers through shedding. Next, there's a thread through the picking process. Finally, the machine pushes the warp thread to the cloth fell.
  • Secondary Motion: The machine controls the yarn tension to avoid breakage between threads. The operator can manually tighten or loosen the warp.
  • Auxiliary Motion: The threads pass through metallic drop wires which passes through a contact rail with a stainless steel coating exterior 'U' shape. The final process completes the textile weaving machine's functionality.

    • Features

    The Circular Knitting Machines and Textile Weaving Machine have variable features all of which are unique to their functionalities.

    Circular Knitting Machines

    For single jersey open width machine:

    • Professional built with thermal conduction.
  • All components guarantee quality and durability with minimal re-installing requirements.
  • Makes sure to treat fine yarn with care to prevent breakage.

    • For double jersey rib machine

    • Installed cylinders dial have proper compression control and thermal durability.
  • Smooth operating machine parts with easy-to-use mechanisms.
  • Energy-saving operations which sync well with all mechanisms.

    • Textile Weaving Machine

    • Provision for dye usage with laser measuring systems.
  • Warper beam control through tension control units.
  • Compact structure helps to adjust to minimal workplaces.
  • Comfortable and smooth thread insertion, thus reducing any damage.
  • Yarn uncrossing provisions which allow the product to lay right after starting the machine.
  • Safety guarantee through windshield installation.

    • What are the benefits?

    There are various benefits of installing fabric production machines for knitting, weaving and spinning due to the advent of textile engineering.

    Let's check them out:

    Circular Knitting Machines

    • A lesser amount of noise emission and vibration with added production speed.
  • A good investment in terms of performance under the cost of the machinery.
  • Little to no change in the quality of fabrics even after long-term usage.

    • Textile Weaving Machine

    • Added comb movement to reduce yarn breakage.
  • High-speed production under minimal thread tension.
  • Un-crossing provisions to keep away crossed threads.
