Different Parts of Knitting Machine:

Knitting machines are mainly two types; they are circular knitting machine and flat bed knitting machine.
This two types are hugely use in knitting machine. A knitting machine is composed of lots of parts. Every
parts of a machine are important for run the machine smoothly. Every part has a specific function during
operation.

Different knitting machine parts and their functions are given below:

 Creel: Creel is called the holder of cone. Cone is placed in a creel for feeding the yarn to the feeder.
 Feeder: Yarn is feed through the feeder. No of feeder is depends on the design of the fabric.
 VDQ Pulley: G.S.M of the knit fabric is controlled by VDQ pulley. VDQ pulley is used for controlling
the stitch length of the fabric.
 Guide: Guide is called the supporting element. Guide is used to guide the yarn.
 Sensor: Sensor is an automatic controlling system. When a yarn pass through this sensor than if any yarn
break down or any problem occur than it automatically stop by this sensoring system.
 Cylinder: Cylinder is the main parts of a knitting machine. Adjustment of a cylinder is important.
Cylinder carries needle, sinker, cam and many more.
 Spreader: Spreader is used to spread the knitted fabric before take up roller. Knit fabrics may be tube or
open type. Spreader is adjusted as need.
 Fixation Feeder: This type of feeder is used in electrical auto striper knitting machine to feed the yarn at
specific finger.
 Rethom: Rethom is used in electrical auto stripper knitting machine.

Different well known companies are manufacturing such types of knitting machine. Day by day they are trying
to add some advance technology two facilities best opportunity. In this sense we can consider auto stripe, which
gives more opportunity two produce multi-color long stripe knit fabrics. Different zigzag design also can be
produced by an auto stripe machine. It is note that, faulty knitting machine parts create knitting faults. To
increase the knitting production we should use latest knitting machine.

So, before buying a knitting machine we have to consider these above points.
Functions of Machine Parts:

Creel: Creel is a part of a knitting machine. Hear yarn package are store and ready to feed in the machine

Photo: Creel.
VDQ Pulley: It is a very important part of the machine. It controls the quality of the product. Altering the position of
the tension pulley changes the G.S.M. of the fabric. If pulley moves towards the positive directive then the G.S.M.
is decrease. And in the reverse direction G.S.M will increase.

Pulley Belt: It controls the rotation of the MPF wheel .

Brush:
Its clean the pulley belt.

Tension Disk:
It confronts the tension of the supply yarn.

Inlet and Outlet Stop Motion:
It is an important part of the machine. It stops the machine instantly when a yarn is break.

Yarn Guide:
Its help the yarn to feed in the feeder.

MPF Wheel:
It is control the speed of the MPF. Pulley belt gives motion to the wheel.

MPF:
It is Mamenger positive feed. It is also an important part of the machine. It’s
give positive feed to the machine.

Feeder Ring:
It is a ring. Where all feeders are pleased together.

Disk Drum:
Use in jacquard machine to produce various types of design.

Pattern Wheel:
Pattern Wheel use in Pai Lung and Auto Stripe machine because of that that helps to produce various types
of design and stripe.

Feeder:
Feeder is help yarn to feed in to the machine.

Needle Track:
Where all Needles is placed together in a decent design.

Photo: Needle Track.


Needle: It is a principal element of the knitting machine. It is help the yarn to create a loop. And by this way fabric
are produce. Prior to yarn feeding the needle is raised to clear the old loop from the hook, and received the new
loop above it on needle stem. The new loop is then enclosed in the needle hook as the needle starts to descend.

Sinker:
It is most important element of the machine. Its help to loop forming, knocking over and holding down
the loop.

Sinker Ring:
Sinker ring is a ring, where all sinkers are pleased together

Cam Box:
Where the cam are set horizontally. In cam box, practically 4 cams is set.

Cam: Cam is device s which converts the rotary machine drive in to a suitable reciprocating action for the
needles and other elements.

Lycra Attachment Device:
Lycra is placed hear and feeding to the machine.

Lycra Stop Motion:
It is one kind of stop motion to stop the machine when the Lycra is break.

Cylinder:
Needle track are situated hear.

Cylinder Balancer:
It helps the cylinder to set in a proper alignment.

Uniwave Lubrication:
The Uniwave lubricator provides uniform lubrication to needles, cam tracks, lifters and other knitting
machine components. The patented nozzle construction separates the air-oil mixture into air and droplets of oil.

Adjustable Fan:
This part removes lint, hairy fibre from yarn and others. To clean the dust by air flow.

Expander:
It is used to control the width of the knitted fabric. No distortion of the knitting courses. Even take down
tension in the knitting machine. As a result, an even fabric structure is achieved over the entire fabric width. The
deformation of the knitted fabric goods can be reduced.

Needle Detector: This part detect the any type of faults of needles.

Air Gun Nozzle:
To feed the yarn; sometimes it is used for cleaning purpose.
