Karl Mayer Adds CFRP Components To RSE 4-1 Raschel Machine, Relaunches HKS 4 F Terry Machine
Germany-based warp-knitting machinery manufacturer Karl Mayer Textilmaschinenfabrik GmbH has
announced that as of April 2010, it will offer its RSE 4-1 four-bar raschel machine, used for
processing stretch fabrics, with components made from lightweight, high-strength carbon
fiber-reinforced plastic (CFRP). The company has modified the design of the machine to handle the
new components and the resulting increased speed of operation. It also has modified the needles to
enhance resistance to lateral distortion.
According to the company, the RSE 4-1 will be the first raschel machine on the market to come equipped with CFRP components, including bars that weigh up to 25-percent less than conventional bars while also offering increased rigidity. Along with increased speed and accuracy, the machine features an increased temperature tolerance range, which improves performance by minimizing the need to adjust the needle tool according to climatic conditions as well as the need to reduce speed following a machine stoppage.
In other news, Karl Mayer will reintroduce its HKS 4 F terry machine in May 2010, for high-speed, efficient production of premium terry fabrics from filament yarns. The machine offers speeds of up to 1,400 revolutions per minute, gauges of E 24 and E 28, and a working width of 136 inches. Another terry machine, the HKS 4 FB(Z), is used especially for cotton fabric production; and it also can produce fabrics from filament, although at a considerably lower speed than the HKS 4 F.

卡尔迈耶为RSE 4-1 拉舍尔经编机增添CFRP部件，并重新发布HKS 4 F毛圈机
德国经编针织机械制造商卡尔迈耶纺机公司最近宣布，将于2010年4月发布它的RSE 4-1四针板拉舍尔经编机，用于加工弹性织物。它的部件是由轻质高弹性碳纤维加固塑料（CFRP）制成。该
公司改良了这种机器的设计，以便操纵新的部件，其结果是提高了操作速度。它还改进了针以提高对横向扭曲的耐用性。
据该公司称，RSE 4-1将是市场上首台配有CFRP部件的拉舍尔经编机，它的针板相比传统针板重量减少了25%，而坚硬性却增强了。处理速度加快，正确性提高。该
机器其它特点还包括提高了对温度的容忍范围，这将根据气候条件调整针工具的需要降到最低，提高了性能，以及减少了因机器停止而降低速度的需要。
公司其它新闻：卡尔迈耶将于2010年5月重新发布它的HKS 4 F毛圈机，用于高速有效的将长丝纱线织成优质的毛圈织物。这种机器速度可以达到每分钟1400转，针距为E24和E28，工
作幅宽为136英寸。另一种毛圈机HKS 4 FB(Z)，特别用于棉织物生产；它也能够将长丝织成面料，但是生产速度比HKS 4 F要慢一些。
