Karl Mayer Technology in the Pantyhose
Pantyhose have been produced on a Karl Mayer double-bar raschel machine. The specially produced products reflect Art Déco style. Produced without any seams, the pantyhose draw attention with its structure fitting snugly around the legs and comfortable use of patterns. Manufactured in one piece, the product stands out with its length from the closed toe to the waistband. This feature, specific to the Karl Mayer double-bar raschel machine, provides advantages in production; and the machine uses E 24 off-set technique while performing this process. Another manufacturing advantage of the product is that the production technology adapts perfectly to the warp-knitted fashion garments. In addition, pattern bars of the machines in the DJ and RDPJ series create excellent production facilities with the KAMCOS® Motion Control/Multispeed system and EL drive designed to match the shape of the body with high quality.
Karl Mayer machines Cuts Human Element
On the other hand, Karl Mayer’s RD 6/1-12 and RD 7/2-12 (EL) machines are popular for efficient high-quality producing and warp-knitted spacer textile of medium thickness. The machines in the RD series are available in gauges of E 18, E 22 and E 24, in a working width of 138", and with a maximum distance between the knock-over comb bars of 12 mm. Central adjustment system is integrated to the design of the machine to receive the maximum benefit; and it is defined as a system minimizing the potential error rate in warp-knitted products with the knock-over comb bars, adjusting the distance between.
Setting the unit distance in the best way, the machine can also keep the changed thickness of the warp-knitted textile at the best level and allows applying the desired setting quickly and automatically. Enabling the stitch comb to be swiveled out easily, the clever handling system permits free access to the knitting elements. If there is a problem, there is no need to unscrew any parts, which takes time and effort. It is underlined that the only manual work that has to be carried out is to adapt the knock-over comb bar distance to suit the height of the needle bar. It is also reported that these choices are available on the RD 7/2-12 EL as standard, while it is an optional feature on the RD 7/2-12 and the RD 6/1-1.
