In order to meet your individual requirements we offer you two variants:

  • SwapKnit 36

    Purchase of individual electronic lappings

  • SwapKnit 36 Flat

    Access to the KARL MAYER lapping database

 

Choose the version that's right for you and your company

SwapKnit 36

Your order individual lappings for each ground guide bar via the WEBSHOP SPARE PARTS – similar to the already familiar principle of the pattern disk. Once purchased, they will remain available for your range of equipment in the Cloud and can be used successively on several machines.

SwapKnit 36 Flat

Purchasing a Flatrate via the WEBSHOP SPARE PARTS will give you even more choice and flexibility. If you purchase a subscription, you get a selection of lappings for a period of 1 month, 3 months or 12 months. This selection can then be used on the machine as often as you like throughout the respective SwapKnit 36 Flat subscription period chosen.
