Karl Mayer has a new machine in the MJ series, the MJ 59/1 S. The S in the machine designation stands for stitch forming and indicates that the machine has a new configuration.
Karl Mayer is a leading warp knitting machinery manufacturer. A leader in knitting elements, the new machine has a stitch-forming jacquard bar and not the normal pillar-stitch-forming ground guide bar. The fabric ground is therefore, produced exclusively by the split jacquard bar. The characteristic appearance features a perfectly symmetrical, regular net pattern, worked on the basis of a powernet lapping.
Other patterns possibilite are the result of the machine having 20 more guide bars compared to the JL 40 F jacquardtronic lace version. Fabric produced on the MJ 59/1 S can be produced in a lower weight than is normally typical for jacquardtronic lace and, in a gauge of E 28, has a fine, filigree appearance.
Another machine is the HKS 4-M, which is setting new standards for four-bar HKS machines in terms of speed. This new high-speed model can reach up to 25 per cent higher speeds than its predecessor. It is mainly the knitting movement that has been modified to enable it to do so. The HKS 4-M can be fitted with N or EL pattern drive and with a drive for feeding elastane.
