JERSEY EVOLUTION

Highly elastic warp knitted power jersey

Due to an elaborated lapping construction it is possible to produce jersey fabrics on warp knitting machines.

 

Features of warp knitted jersey fabrics:

  • smooth, soft feeling on the skin
  • high elasticity
  • very good recovery
  • straight edges on free cut articles

Your advantages with warp knitted jersey fabrics

4-Way-Stretch with good recovery
Due to a special lapping construction the fabric receives a very high elongation of up to 245% and has a good recovery.

Free cut with straight edges
Due to the special meshing of the elastane threads, the fabric convinces with cut-resistant edges.

Soft touch
The high gauge in combination with the special lapping gives the fabric a soft and smooth surface with a flowing fall, such as that of circular knitted fabric.

HKS 2-SE PLUS - Your best choice if you are moving in a commodity segment of elastic articles

The HKS 2-SE PLUS is based on the machine concept of the HKS 2-SE. The machine has a modified knitting movement which enables the Koeper stitch lapping in addition to the charmeuse and double tricot lapping. The two needle overlap is implemented by the GB 2 ground bar, which uses elastane. The result are articles with a higher elastic modulus. Swimwear, sportswear and shapewear with high stretch performance are just as much part of the HKS 2-SE PLUS products as fine lingerie qualities.

HKS 2-S - The specialist of warp knitted jersey fabrics

Knitting technology is the most versatile technology for textile surface production. Due to a high variation in machine fineness, yarns and patterning possibilities, a multitude of different textiles with special qualities can be produced. The knitting process basically works withouth water or chemicals and is therefore a very environmentally friendly technology.

Your benefits

High productivity
The HKS 2-S is particularly characterised by its high efficiency. One high-performance tricot machine can replace up to 2.5 circular knitting machines.

Low running costs
Needle replacement cycles are approximately 6 times longer compared to circular knitting machines. The costs for one set are 50% less. The running costs compared to cirular knitting machines are therefore highly reduced.
