A single-jersey knitting machine is a textile machine used to knit single-jersey fabrics. Its use involves multiple steps, including machine preparation, threading, start-up, daily operation and maintenance. The following content is summarized based on relevant technical information and general operating knowledge.
Machine preparation and inspection
Before using a single knitting machine, comprehensive inspection and preparation work is required. First, make sure the power connection is stable, turn on the control box switch and check whether the steam pressure, hydraulic system and vacuum pressure are normal.
At the same time, confirm that the knitting needle track mold is installed correctly, and each row of knitting needles should be in contact with the aligned edges to form a standard shape; for new molds, it is necessary to place the track mold on the machine table and adjust the position of the knitting needles according to the instructions.
In addition, check the yarn supply system to ensure that the yarn quality meets the requirements, and clean the environment around the machine to avoid interference from debris.
Yarn threading and paper threading operations
Threading is a critical step, selecting the right yarn according to the fabric design and guiding it through the yarn guide. For single-jersey circular knitting machines, a cam system is usually used to control the knitting needle movement. When threading the yarn, it is necessary to ensure a smooth yarn path to avoid entanglement.
