Fabric sample from Terrot S296-2 Open Width

German circular knitting machine builder Terrot will be exhibiting alongside its Chinese partner Terrot International Ltd., where the company will show its high performance single jersey model S296- 2 Open Width.

Terrot says it is setting sets new standards in the development and application of high performance single jersey machines and the 30 inch diameter S296-2 Open Width, 96 feed, 4 track machine on show in Shanghai will be producing single jersey in gauge E46. The machine is designed for the high speed production of single jersey and is equipped with an Open Width Frame.

"The advanced and approved single jersey machine S296-2 Open Width offers brilliant flexibility and efficiency in the production of different knitting structures with up to 4 needle tracks which guarantees the application of a wide yarn variety. The use of new materials enhances highest machine speeds with reduced heat build-up and a minimum wear of the knitting tools," a Terrot spokesperson said today.

According to Terrot, the advanced central and individual stitch adjustment emphasizes operator convenience of the machine and together with the newly available cost-efficient cylinder needles, improves the efficiency of every inch of fabric produced.

"The S296-2 with Open Width frame will satisfy you with a top class fabric quality without any centre crease over the entire fabric surface thanks to sophisticated machine components combined with the highest Terrot quality," says Terrot.

Areas of application for the S296-2 are sports and leisure wear, home textiles, automotive fabrics, swimwear and technical textiles.
