Seamless and Body-Size Circular Knitting

topic
Body-size seamless circular knitting machines produce complete garment-width tubular fabrics with integrated garment shaping through stitch density variation and selective knitting at defined body measurement diameters of 14 to 20 inches, with programmed stitch density changes and held loop techniques creating waist shaping, armhole formation, and decorative patterns in a single fabric length that requires only minimal finishing cuts and seaming.

Role

Enables near-seamless garment production that reduces garment making assembly operations and associated labour cost while providing superior comfort from eliminated seam bulk and pressure points, with seamless knitting technology being the enabling technology for the seamless underwear, sportswear, and shapewear categories that have grown significantly in response to consumer demand for comfort and body-conforming fit.
