Double Jersey Circular Knitting Machine
The double jersey knitting machine, also referred to as the circular knitting machine, is a mechanical knitting device that generates a double layer of fabric using two sets of needles. This results in fabric that is more durable, thicker, and warmer compared to that produced by single jersey machines.
Double jersey knitting machines feature two sets of needles, allowing the production of fabrics twice as thick as single jersey fabrics. Rib and interlock are two common fabrics knitted by double jersey machines.
These machines have two needle beds operating in opposite directions and utilize cam systems to manipulate the needles for creating various stitch patterns. Yarns are fed through the machine's feeders, picked up by the needles, and manipulated by the cams to produce the fabric.
The double jersey knitting machine is utilized in producing a wide array of fabrics, including sweaters, cardigans, knitwear, blankets, and upholstery fabrics.
