The company’s first BUSI® machines, manufactured in 1993, are still in production today, the company reports. According to BUSI® Giovanni, this is a proof of the longevity of its machines, which are said to have a proven average life of 25 years.
European manufacturer and supplier Geropa Sport was established more than 35 years ago. Among the first purchases from Busi Giovanni was the BUSI® 500 single cylinder sock machine. Today the company uses it mainly to produce high quality heavy-work socks. After more than 20 years, all four of the company’s BUSI® machines are still very reliable in terms of performances and quality, according to the manufacturer.
BUSI® 500
BUSI® 500 is a single cylinder sock machine with latch needles in the dial to enable it to produce heavy gauge sport socks with true rib and terry and it is provided with full electronic control.
The machine is equipped with striping unit on both feeds (6+5 feeders) and with a terry device that allows knitting "sandwich type" terry or conventional terry (not plated), the company explains. The change from plain stitch to half terry and full terry is completely automatic.

«…We bought second-hand BUSI machines made early 2000. We refurbished them and now they are ready to run.
These machines are really good, so please don’t tell me that they are obsolete! » - says Luís Costa (Faria da Costa Lda – Owner)

L'Università del Tessile di Riga (Lettonia)
L’Istituto di biomateriali e biomeccanica della Riga Technical University (Lettonia) ha scelto le macchine BUSI per l’addestramento degli studenti iscritti al corso “Structure, properties and calculations of the main basic and combined interlacing & technological processes on textile machines”.
Utilizzando una macchina BUSI, la Dott.ssa in Scienze Tecniche Inga Lyashenko della Riga Technical University ha realizzato diversi campioni di calze con uno speciale filato di ambra per il quale, in data 30.11.2009, ha ricevuto il premio "The most unique product” al concorso “Latvia can” da parte del Presidente della DnB NORD Bank, Andris Ozolins. Vedi fotografia allegata.
La Dott.ssa in Scienze Tecniche Inga Lyashenko commenta così la sua esperienza con una macchina Busi:
Based on modern technological equipment of the company BUSI GIOVANNI we conducted laboratory work for students. Using innovative yarns, we knitted samples of products with different interlacings. The textile machinery of the company BUSI GIOVANNI is very well designed, fairly easy to manage and very productive. It is designed so that you can use different types of threads, alone and in combination.
We want to thank you for the opportunity to work on these machines!
