Association Of Spinning Machines: Knitting Machinery And Fashion Combine More Closely

Association of spinning machines: knitting machinery and fashion combine more closely

According to the statistics of China textile machinery association, the number of horizontal machines in the first three quarters of 2016 was around 90,000. According to the statistics of the customs, the export amount of horizontal machinery industry in China during the same period was 152 million us dollars, up 14.1% year on year.

In the first three quarters of 2016, the number of circular weft machines in China was about 17,000, and the export value of circular weft machines in China was 162 million us dollars, up 18.6% year on year. Thanks to the investment of textile manufacturers from Taiwan and mainland China in southeast Asia, the export value of the first three quarters of the year increased steadily.

In the first three quarters of 2016, the knitting machinery industry generally ran smoothly. Affected by different market demand, the three main types of flat knitting machine, circular weft machine, warp knitting machine performance difference: flat knitting machine industry production and marketing two flourishing, circular weft machine market performance is generally, warp knitting machine is still facing greater downward pressure.

Flat machine industry continued a good momentum in the first half of the year, compared with the same period last year, the overall market situation has improved significantly.

In the third quarter of 2016, the circular weft machine industry showed a recovery trend, and the sales in the first three quarters were basically flat compared with the previous year. In the first half of 2016, the domestic circular weft machine was greatly affected by the large-scale closure of printing and dyeing factories in shaoxing, and the sales volume decreased year on year. Sales model is given priority to with single machine, computer jacquard circular weft machine is outstanding, at the same time fine needle pitch or thick needle pitch model is good, although the market share of wire circular weft machine is small, but the market performance is outstanding, tights machine market is recovering gradually.

The warp knitting industry is facing great downward pressure in 2016. In recent years, knitting industry and fashion industry closely combined, such as the wide application of lace, led to the continuous rapid development of multi-comb warp knitting machine; The widespread popularity of ladies' leggings has led to a huge demand for 8-inch round weft machines. In 2017, as consumers further pursue personalization and the continuous development of fashion industry, the corresponding knitting machinery also contains a broad development prospect.

Flat machine market will continue good momentum. On the one hand, the knitting speed and knitting pattern capacity of the old computerized flat knitting machine cannot meet the production demand, and a large number of equipment needs to be replaced. On the other hand for knitting shoe material production enterprises to keep a strong demand for flat machine equipment.

At present, fully formed vamp machine is the trend of the development of knitting vamp machine. It is worth noting that domestic circular weft machine enterprises began to focus on the research and development of vamp circular weft machine, some enterprises have prototype; Benefiting from the rise of products such as artificial fur and sports shoes, double needle bed and high speed warp knitting machine will be expanded and extended; With the rapid development of industrial knitwear applications, the demand for multi-axial warp knitting machines will continue to grow.
