GS-SE252 12G 52-inch Economic-Double System Sweater Knitting Machine

·The Productivity Advantage of Double System Architecture
The double system configuration means the carriage completes two knitting passes per traverse cycle, effectively doubling productive output at the same carriage speed compared to a single system machine. Combined with a maximum knitting speed of 1.5 m/s, synchronous belt drive, and AC servo motor control, the machine delivers high throughput with low vibration and minimal noise. Synchronous belt transmission provides superior drive precision and lower maintenance requirements versus conventional chain systems, eliminating errors caused by chain elongation or slack — a significant advantage in environments where uptime and low maintenance cost are priorities.
·Direct Selection Needle Bed and Fully Motorized Cams
Two hardware features define the GS-SE252's competitive position: the direct selection needle bed and the fully motorized cam system. The direct selection needle bed drives each needle's selection action directly via computer control, eliminating intermediate mechanical linkages found in conventional indirect selection systems. This results in faster selection response and higher precision, with particular advantage in complex jacquard and high-density pattern knitting. The fully motorized cam system replaces traditional spring or pneumatic cam adjustment with servo motor actuation, enabling real-time, precise cam position adjustment during machine operation with high repeatability — providing the hardware foundation for flexible multi-style, multi-gauge production. An optional insert-type needle bed is also available for applications requiring extended needle bed service life, reducing long-term consumable costs in continuous high-intensity production.
·Precise Stitch Density Control
Stitch density is controlled by a stepping motor utilizing subdivision technology, offering 128 adjustable levels (switchable to 32 levels) across a range of 0 to 650. This wide and finely graduated adjustment range allows the GS-SE252 to switch between heavy-gauge woolen constructions and fine-gauge fashion fabrics on the same machine without equipment changes, supporting multi-category order fulfillment from a single platform. The high repeatability of density settings ensures consistent fabric dimensions and hand feel across batches, a critical requirement for manufacturers supplying export markets with strict quality inspection standards.
·High-Precision Racking System
The racking system is controlled by an AC servo motor with a range of up to 2 inches and a fine-tuning function, enabling precise execution of transfer and fully fashioned shaping operations. The positional repeatability of servo-driven racking significantly exceeds that of electromagnetic direct-drive alternatives, ensuring clean, symmetrical shaping edges — essential for garments where appearance quality is a primary customer requirement.
·Expanded Yarn Carrier Configuration
The GS-SE252 is equipped with 16 yarn carriers distributed across four guide rails on both sides of the needle bed, shiftable to any needle position. Compared to the 8-carrier configuration of single-system machines, the 16-carrier setup provides substantially greater color management flexibility for multicolor jacquard and intarsia work. Operators can handle a wider palette of active yarn colors without frequent carrier swaps, improving continuity and efficiency in color-intensive production runs.
·Intelligent Take-Down and Comprehensive Protection
The take-down roller system uses programmed stepping motor control with 128 tension levels adjustable from 0 to 100, allowing precise tension calibration to match each fabric's weight and elasticity. This prevents lateral distortion and weft bow caused by uneven take-down tension. The protection system monitors in real time for yarn breakage, knots, float yarn, rewinding errors, end of knitting, racking return failure, needle breakage, and safety door status, triggering automatic alarm and machine stop upon any abnormal detection. This comprehensive monitoring minimizes material waste and protects needles and fabric from damage caused by undetected faults.
·Advanced Control System
The control system features an LCD display with 256MB of onboard memory and USB input, storing large numbers of pattern files for rapid style changeover. All operating parameters can be monitored and adjusted in real time while the machine is running, eliminating production stops for parameter changes. The pattern design interface is intuitive and straightforward, reducing training time for new operators. Multi-language support including Chinese and English ensures accessibility across regions. The machine runs on single-phase 220V power and incorporates a power-off memory function that preserves the current knitting state during unexpected outages, allowing seamless resumption from the interruption point upon power restoration and preventing in-progress fabric loss.
