For warp-knitted fabrics, the double-sided relief design is novel, luxurious and diverse. Based on this, Karl Mayer has added a new dimension to 3D warp-knit spacer fabrics to meet market demand and help customers expand In the business area, this innovative fabric technology is called 4DKNIT. The special look of 4D-KNIT fabrics is based on 3D patterns, combining the embossed look with the elements of permanent stability to produce creative designs.
Compared with other technologies that produce similar fabric appearance, warp knitting is more efficient. For example, the double needle bed Raschel technology can produce 200 pairs of shoes per hour, while the flat knitting machine can only produce 1.5 pairs in the same time. The new configuration of KARL MAYER's RDPJ 6/2 EL double-needle bed Raschel machine has successfully created higher productivity and a unique 4DKNIT fabric appearance. The fabric structure produced is completely different from traditional 3D warp knitted fabrics.
The new RDPJ 6/2 EL warp knitting machine has the machine number E24 and a working width of 138 inches. With ingenious technical structure and unique design of the loop area, combined with Karl Mayer's tried-and-tested Jaka technology, this model has outstanding jacquard capabilities. At the same time, the spacing of the knockout sinker bed is adjustable. When the distance is 1.5 to 2.5 mm, 4D-KNIT and double-sided fabrics can be produced. When the distance is 2.0 to 8.0 mm, traditional spacer fabrics can be produced. Processing Jaka pattern. Diverse flower designs can effectively reduce investment risks.
This innovative double needle bed Raschel warp knitting machine was officially put into production in the fourth quarter of 2019. Kay Hilbert, senior manager of KARL MAYER's product management department, is looking forward to the launch of this machine. The newly configured RDPJ 6/2 EL and some 4D-KNIT products have been successfully displayed at this year's International Textile Machinery Exhibition in Barcelona (ITMA 2019), and the products once became the highlight of KARL MAYER's booth. Kay Hilbert said: "At that time, news about the development of 4D-KNIT fabric products quickly spread throughout the show, even after the yarn manufacturers heard it. Some visitors were very keen to invest in this new product. , And had a lot of discussions on the application of the product. From the feedback of the exhibition site, this product has huge market potential. "
It is reported that at the Munich International Sporting Goods Exhibition held on January 26-29, 2020, KARL MAYER will display the latest 4D-KNIT products in booth C408 of Hall C2.
