W Machine - New Weft Yarn Carrier Qw
The yarn carrier plunger (A) is activated outside of the yarn carrier carriage and pushes the yarn carrier.
The weft yarn carrier is named "Qw".
Benefit:
- No additional system is required for the weft yarn.
- One system only inserts the weft yarn and encloses it by knitting.
- The additional system, necessary up to now, can be used for another needle action (enhanced productivity).
Working without Qw |
The weft yarn is inserted by the separate system (S1).
|
Working with Qw |
One system only (S2) inserts the weft yarn and encloses it by knitting. The system S1 can be used for another needle action.
The yarn carriers must be on different tracks. |
Notes:
- Height of the Qw yarn carrier = Height of a normal yarn carrier
- Yarn carrier carriage Qw (ID 277 915)
The yarn carrier bow is taken from a normal yarn carrier. - Refer to the M1plus online help of version 7.0 for more information.
