12 February 2010, Obertshausen – Leading builder of warp
knitting machines Karl Mayer is showing at this year’s Bandung Inter Tex in Jakarta,
Indonesia, which takes place from 22 to 25 April. The German machine builder will
be exhibiting a range of machines including its type HKS 3-M flexible tricot
machine.
Karl Mayer says the HKS 3-M is suitable for producing a wide
range of textiles, from light tulles to high-quality plush fabrics. The company
stresses that it is even suitable for manufacturing open structures with
extremely low stitch densities and coarse gauges, offering increased production
efficiency.
The key to the enhanced productivity, Karl Mayer says, is
the lightweight machine construction. As a result of the integration of CFRP
components and of a precise matching of the entire design concept, the HKS 3-M
machine now operates at even higher speeds, offering better heat stability
compared to its high-capacity predecessor.
Karl Mayer says all of these advantages of the new
generation of HKS machines will be convincingly demonstrated at the company’s stand
during Bandung Inter Tex. The HKS 3-M, which Karl Mayer considers an
all-rounder, will be exhibited in a gauge of E 28 and a working width of 180
inches, producing an inelastic printing
ground structure. Other focal points at the Karl Mayer stand will be the
company’s latest raschel machine developments and machines for the production
of technical textiles as well as warp preparation units.
