Remove the carriage part when the carriage assembly is blocked in the needle bed

In the case of a shock on the needle bed, the piezo-electric shock stop switches off the knitting machine.

Shock stop motion front needle bed

Shock stop motion rear needle bed

: The machine runs with empty carriage stroke starting with the next reversal until the button is deactivated.
Then the knitting is continued at the point where it was previously interrupted.

2

Deletion of the yarn carrier positions when loading a knitting program (EAY)

  • Delete yarn carrier positions (EAY activated):
    When restarting a knitting program, at the start of the new fabric, the yarn carriers are not brought to the home position
    : Recommended for MC with the use of the clamping and cutting bed and the comb.
  • Do not delete yarn carrier positions (EAY disabled):
    When restarting a knitting program, at the start of the new fabric, the yarn carriers are brought to the home position
    Attention:
    The machine opens the corresponding clamp in the clamping and cutting bed and the previously manually clamped thread is released, i.e. unthreaded.
