Fabric Take-Down and Winding Systems
topic
Circular knitting machine take-down systems use roller pairs positioned inside the cylinder beneath the knitting zone to draw the tubular fabric downward at controlled tension, with fabric winding onto a mandrel or batching into a bin below the machine, and take-down tension governing the fabric stitch length and course density through its effect on the yarn tension during loop formation at the knitting point.
Role
Controls the fabric course density and loop length through take-down tension that partially determines the stitch length at which loops are formed, with take-down system uniformity across the full fabric width and consistent fabric draw-off tension being essential for uniform fabric structure and consistent fabric weight that are primary quality parameters for circular knitted fabrics.
