Compare Between Single Jersey Single Truck (conventional) and Single Jersey Four truck Circular Knitting m/c.

Experiment name: Study on compare between single jersey single truck (conventional) and single jersey four truck circular knitting m/c.

Object:

1. To know about the difference between single jersey single truck and single jersey four truck circular knitting m/c.
2. To know about modern development of single jersey four truck knitting m/c.
3. To know about the problematic area of single jersey single truck knitting m/c.

Introduction:
Single jersey circular knitting m/c is a common m/c in knitting industry. More than 70% of knitted fabric is produced in single jersey m/c. In conventional m/c there is only one cam truck. So we can produce only basic single jersey fabric in this m/c. But in modern m/c there is four truck in the cylinder. So we can produce maximum 4 (four) wales in a repeat. To produce more than 4 wales in a repeat we need jacquard mechanism.

Comparison between single jersey single truck (conventional) and single jersey four truck circular knitting m/c:
