In addition to continuously developing new models, KARL MAYER is constantly improving various solutions to make the daily operation of the machine easier and more efficient. In addition, the manufacturer is constantly expanding the online spare parts store.
Needle bed gland coupling
Needle cover is a recent innovation, it is a small and efficient component. This component can be used when the working width of the machine is narrower than the width of the needle bed. It is a flat u-shaped cap-shaped element, installed in the empty needle area of the needle bed, and fixed by the needle bed cover plate to protect the place being pressed from damage and pollution. This practical protective cover also helps to increase the dimensional stability of the needle bed. The needle slot protective cover is one inch wide and is made of lightweight plastic with a matte surface for easy operation without slipping. The needle slot protective cover is currently only applicable to some HKS models, other versions will be launched later. You can order the spare part directly from the online store of KARL MAYER spare parts or use the k.maintenance application, or you can scan the QR code below to order the spare part through the "scan order" function.
2 inch separate guide pin block
Another innovation makes the warp knitting machine need less time and minimum waste when debugging the comb. In order to speed up the replacement of the guide needle block, KARL MAYER has introduced a 2 inch separate guide needle block, which can be separated into two 1 inch guide needle blocks. Therefore, if the yarn guide needle is damaged, there is no need to replace the entire yarn guide needle, only the damaged 1-inch part needs to be replaced separately. This 2-inch split yarn guide block was first introduced in Barcelona [ITMA 2019]. Since then, interested customers have continued to grow globally. Many machines have been equipped with a new 2-inch split yarn guide block, and models with this component shipped from the factory will also be delivered in the near future. The 2-inch split yarn guide block of the high machine series is also planned. At present, the machine range of this 2 inch split yarn guide is E18-E36.
Expand the product range of the online spare parts store
KARL MAYER's online spare parts store has been further improved, increasing the types of spare parts that can be ordered-now more than 6000 spare parts can be ordered directly through the digital ordering channel, including spare parts for RACOP and COPCENTRA series machines. The latest version of the online store also introduces product categories, simplifying product search. For example, under the category "loop forming parts", the categories of tools, loop forming parts and threaders / spinning reeds are defined, while the category "mechanical parts" contains the following categories: bearings, springs, connecting rods , Release plate and screws / nuts / washers
