From this a future opportunity is provided to substitute the subjective warp let-off adjustment by a model of tension control. The outcome of this is a higher reproducibility with associated increasing process reliability and rising product quality. Key words: Multiaxial fabric, non-crimp fabric (NCF), warp knitting machine, warp yarn tension, yarn tension control. Initial situation warp knitted glass or carbon fibre layers. These are made on warp knitting machines with multiaxial weft insertion.

Notation of warp knitted fabrics is not easy lapping movement of warp yarn guide. The lappings are two like that of weft knitted fabrics. The degree of shifting, types depending of the movement of guide bar with yarn design areas, numbers of overlaps are the main things relative to needle surface and termed as overlap and considered during warp knitted fabrics designing. The underlap. Overlap is the lateral movement of the guide bars formula was developed by considering degree of wale on the beard or hook side of the needle. This movement is shift and number of overlaps in one line in the knitted normally restricted to one needle space. Underlap is the fabrics/structure. The formula will help warp knit lateral movement of the guide bars on the side of the needle designers particularly for those designing without remote from the hook or beard. This movement is limited software. The formulation was done by analyzing only by the mechanical considerations. It is the connection different types of warp knit structures.

  • 19. Principles of Yarn Requirements for Knitting
    19. Principles of Yarn Requirements for Knitting Errol Wood Learning objectives On completion of this lecture you should be able to: • Describe the general methods of forming textile fabrics; • Outline the fibre and yarn requirements for machine knitwear • Describe the steps in manufacturing and preparing yarn for knitting Key terms and concepts Weft knitting, warp knitting, fibres, fibre diameter, worsted system, yarn count, steaming, clearing, winding, lubrication, needle loop, sinker loop, courses, wales, latch needle, bearded needle Introduction Knitting as a method of converting yarn into fabric begins with the bending of the yarn into either weft or warp loops. These loops are then intermeshed with other loops of the same open or closed configuration in either a horizontal or vertical direction. These directions correspond respectively to the two basic forms of knitting technology – weft and warp knitting. In recent decades few sectors of the textile industry have grown as rapidly as the machine knitting industry. Advances in knitting technologies and fibres have led to a diverse range of products on the market, from high quality apparel to industrial textiles. The knitting industry can be divided into four groups – fully fashioned, flat knitting, circular knitting and warp knitting. Within the wool industry both fully fashioned and flat knitting are widely used. Circular knitting is limited to certain markets and warp knitting is seldom used for wool. This lecture covers the fibre and yarn requirements for knitting, and explains the formation of knitted structures. A number of texts are useful as general references for this lecture; (Wignall, 1964), (Gohl and Vilensky, 1985) and (Spencer, 1986).
