The gauge of the needle is directly proportional to the gauge of the machine; the needle must be neither too thick (if so there would not be enough space between a needle and the next one for looping the yarn) nor too fine since in this case the needle, besides being too weak, could compromise the resistance of the binding pattern which would result poorly balanced. 1 shows the gauge of needles according to their thickness (approximate). The values are indicative, as the real value of the needle gauge is only given by the manufacturer’s specifications.
T) Common gauge is 16–28 for circular machines and 5–12 for flat machines. 4 (a) (b) (c) (d) (e) (f) (g) (h) (i) (j) Features of rib knitting (machine, process and structure) Machine has two beds – may be flat or circular. There are two sets of needles – one in each bed. There are two cam systems – one in each bed. Needles in the two beds are not face to face but needles in one bed are in between the needles of the other bed so that they do not touch while raised for clearing. Rib fabrics are double-faced structures as well as balanced structures.
6 Manufacturing and specifications of latch needle From a manufacturing point of view, latch needles may be of two types: ● ● Wire needle Die-cut needle Wire needle are made from a steel wire shaped through various machining steps to create a desired (flat/circular) profile and a hook, the section accommodating the latch, and an end butt with tail; sometimes the butt is not obtained with a bending process but by a pressing one. Die-cut needles are made from a steel plate of the desired thickness, which is die cut so as to create the shape of a butt with or without a tail; the hook and latch fitting are created with a special process.
