KNITTING YARN

TYPES OF KNITTING YARNS: YARNS

MADE OF NATURAL FIBERS
• cotton
• wool
• linen
• hemp
• silk.
TYPES OF KNITTING YARNS: YARNS
MADE OF SYNTHETIC FIBERS
• • polyamid – socks and hosiery, sportswear, underwear;
• • polyester – all kinds of garments, underwear;
• • polyacrylonitryl – garments, socks;
• • polypropylene – sportswear, socks (generally for color designs);
• • • aramide – high modulus garments and gloves.
YARN DELIVERY SYSTEM
The main objectives of yarn delivery system are as follows:
• To supply the machine with processed textile material, usually yarn, in
sufficient quantities, to unwind the yarns from bobbins and to guide the yarns
into the knitting mechanism.
• To control the quantity of the yarn supply, i.e. the lengths and tensile stresses of
the yarns.
• To inspect the yarns from different viewpoints and to stop the machine if
necessary. The knitting process will be interrupted if a break occurs in the yarn,
if the tensile stress is too high or if the yarn becomes too thick in places.
 YARN SUPPLY SYSTEM ON A
CIRCULAR KNITTING MACHINE
Yarns (1) are
brought from
the bobbins (2),
passed
through the side
creel to the
feeder (3) and
finally to the
yarn guide (4).

i-DSCS+DTC has the capability to
actively control yarn-feed in both feed
and retrieval directions as necessary,
through variable electronic control of
yarn tension. This results in even
higher quality and greater
productivity using a wider variety of
yarns, including high-speed knitting of
challenging yarns such as fancy yarns,
stretch yarns, slub yarns and delicate
cashmeres.
UNIFEEDER 2 (yarn feeding solution by BTSR) represents a breakthrough solution drastically
overcoming the state-of-art of storage feeding technology.
TOP FEATURES AND BENEFITS:
•  Real-time Total Yarn Control
• High Precision Real-time Yarn Consumption Measurement
• Real-time Constant Tension Self-adaptive Technology –
• Yarns knots, breaks, tears detection - granting real-time machine stop signaling, thanks to input
knot catcher and additional built-in sensors
• Yarn and Needles Breakage Prevention - avoiding second-rate products and useless machine
