For the W Machine there is another weft yarn carrier available:

Qt yarn carrier
|
|
There are three models of the Qt weft yarn carriers:
- Qt1 – 141 mm (ID 4170 282 857)
- Qt2 – 161 mm (ID 4170 282 858)
- Qt3 – 181 mm (ID 4170 282 859)
The yarn carrier plunger (A) is activated outside of the yarn carrier carriage and pushes the yarn carrier.
Benefit:
- No additional system is required for the weft yarn.
- One system only inserts the weft yarn and encloses it by knitting.
- Exact and smooth weft yarn insertion due to the wider guidance of the Qt weft yarn carriers on the rail.
Working with Qt |
One system only (S2) inserts the weft yarn and encloses it by knitting.
The yarn carriers must be on different tracks. |

Notes:
- Height of the Qt yarn carrier = Height of a normal yarn carrier
- The yarn carrier bow is taken from the corresponding normal yarn carrier.
- After a yarn brake or moving it manually, you have to move the Qt yarn carrier back to its last valid position.
- Other positions lead to indeterminate movements of the yarn carrier and damage.
