29 April 2009, Chemnitz - German circular knitting machine
builder Terrot is to show its best-selling S3P172 mini jacquard single jersey
machine at the forthcoming Shanghaitex exhibition which will be held from in
June.
The S3P172 machine is among the most successful and most
frequently sold Terrot models worldwide and the company says that other producers
have tried to emulate its easy-to-operate Jacquard selection technology, but none
has ever succeeded in matching it in terms of quality or functional and
production reliability. The machine operates using 3-way technique at every
feeder and the selection mechanism moves the cylinder needles to the freely
selectable knit-tuck-miss position. In fact Terrot says that the “S3P172 is often
emulated, but never matched. To decide in favour of the Terrot mini jacquard model
S3P172-1 is to opt for a great brand designed to address the most stringent
quality demands”.
Perfect circular knitting technology combined with the ‘finest
Terrot knitted fabrics’ is, the company says the culmination of well-developed
machine engineering designed to sharpen the competitive edge of its international
customer base.
A spokesperson for the company told KnittingIndustry.com: “The
name Terrot stands for quality and top performance in the construction of
electronically and mechanically controlled circular knitting machines around the
world. Maximum efficiency and outstanding cost-to performance ratio, combined
with truly universal application and operating convenience”
These are the objectives at the forefront of Terrot’s machine
design and development work and participating in Shanghaitex 2009 underlines
the huge importance of the Chinese market for the company. Terrot’s presentation
will be focussed on innovation, quality awareness, marketability and
competitiveness.
