The double cylinder hosiery machine is a specialized device for weaving short and medium hosiery using upper and lower needles. It is capable of producing a variety of sock designs, including flat stitch, ribbed, double reverse, jacquard, add yarn, bar, collection ring, and other patterns.
- This machine features upper and lower slots positioned opposite each other, and its main components include double-headed tongue needles, guide needle pieces, settling pieces, foot pieces, and jacquard pieces.
- The machine’s operation involves the interplay of upper and lower guide needle pieces to control the weaving process and achieve specific fabric structures. Additionally, the machine is equipped with upper and lower triangular systems, which enable the double-headed tongue needle to move in different directions and perform various knitting techniques.
- While the traditional double cylinder hosiery machine has a complex mechanism, modern electronic technology has been incorporated to simplify its operation and improve efficiency.
