Raschel Warp Knitting Machine Systems
topic
Raschel machines use up to 78 guide bars and latch needles on single or double needle beds to produce complex open-work structures, lace, nets, and technical fabrics through the extensive underlap guide bar movements that create the pattern effects and open mesh characteristic of Raschel fabrics, operating at lower speeds of 800 to 1500 courses per minute than tricot machines due to the greater guide bar complexity.
Role
Enables production of the most complex warp knit fabric structures including lace, net, spacer fabrics, and technical mesh constructions through the large guide bar count that provides the pattern freedom distinguishing Raschel from tricot capability, with Raschel machines being the primary technology for elastic lace in lingerie, carpet backing, geotextile mesh, and technical open-structure fabrics.
