Through this special device, it is possible knitting socks (normally for children) having 3 dimensional effects like noses or ears.
The machine is provided with an extra actuator that enables a production of mesh patterns in two feeds.
The standard machine will produce such mesh patterns in one feed only.
This option is recommended in case the machine will be used for the production of pantyhose.
Knitting in two feeds will shorten the production time without losing the possibility of mesh patterns that are commonly used in the pantyhose.
Mesh is also called "filet stitch".
This is the stand hosting the yarns cones.
Two different types are available: horizontal and vertical. See the attached file for further information.
The 2-feed machine guarantees higher productivity (approx. +20%) than the 1 feed machine (in case of socks without patterns).
We inform you that we use USB stick for pattern transfer. It is also possible to connect the machine to an ethernet network and transfer files through such same network.

The suction fan is necessary to keep in tension the sock, to eject it from the machine after it is completed and to suck the waste of yarns (which goes into the filter).
These units must be necessarily equipped on the machine in case your customer has not a centralized vacuum unit.
