Orizio's MJMBF2

The MJMBF2 is a single jersey circular knitting machine that can work with four colour electronic stripers at each feed.  Talking passionately about the Brescia company's new technology, owner and CEO Alberto Orizio said:

"The cams profile and the selection system have been studied so that the movements of the knitting elements take place in the most favourable conditions, thus assuring the perfect formation of the stitch with the minimum energy consumption and, consequently, considerable reduction in the wear of all the machine's components."

"The needles and yarn fingers electronic selection allows for the automatic passage from a structure to another one as well as the partial or total annulment of the pattern, thus giving the possibility of pattern placing," Orizio added.

Details for the MJMBF2 are as follows:

Diameter: 30" and 34"

Gauges: 18 - 32

Maximum speed:  24 rpm

No. of feeds: 48 - 54  

Orizio says the quality of the visitors at the exhibition was particularly good and after the show Orizio made sales and its customers fixed meetings with Orizio representatives. The company says the number of both Turkish and non-Turkish visitors was satisfying and plenty of new contacts were made. Overall the exhibition exceeded Orizio's expectations.
