With its focus on trend-setting

technologies, highest quality, exi-

bility, a long-term oriented portfolio

and nance strategy and the dened

objective to become a worldwide

leading manufacturer of circular

knitting machines, Terrot will fur-

ther expand protably.

The proct rangeTerrot recently presented six in-

novative new products and also

further developed circular knitting

machines out of the current product

range.

S296-2 Open with

d-Frame, 30 E50

The S296-2 offers outstanding

exibility and efciency in the pro-

duction of different stitch structures

with up to four needle tracks. Its

ideal distribution of 102 feeds over

32 diameter is proven in practical

day-to-day operation.

SCC6F548, 30 E36

The striper technology in single-

jersey has already a very long tradi-

tion at Terrot up to 6 colours strip-

ping, in addition to the combination

of 3-way technique and the new

development ne gauge E36, opens

new trends in fashion.

uCC572, 30 E40

The stringent standard of quality

and reliability of Terrot machines

achieve its culmination with its Jac-

quard machine series. The ceramic

PIEZO selection elements form the

electronic-mechanic interface which

reliably implements the knitting in-formation even with extremely ne

machine gauge at high speeds.

uCC572T, 34 E16

The production of transfer fabrics

on the latest developed Electronic-

Jacquard machine UCC572-T offers

highest production output at utmost

efciency.

uP592M, 38 E20The latest developed mini-jac-

quard model UP592M stands out

by its appliance in the cost-efcient

production of mini-jacquard mat-

tress ticking. The combination of

a high number of feeders and ma-

chine speed allows a never before

achieved output.

I3P284-1, 30 E40

8-lock model I3P284-1 in ne gaug-

es E40 E50 offers a wider range

in knitting structures. Thus rib and

interlock stitch formations can be

combined to new fabric structures.

Terrot circular knitting machines

are especially developed with re-

spect to the market demands, energy

efciency and performance. These

machines show an increase in ef-

ciency of up to 50 per cent.

F132-AJ is the name of the new,

trend-setting Terrot development,

the Terrot direct spin-knit process

the new dimension of fabric knit-

ting.

The Terrot F132-AJ direct spin-

knit process uses an air jet spinning

system. It does not mount the rov-

ings, clearing or drafting units or

indeed spinning nozzles on the knit-

ting machine. Instead it has a creel

type arrangement on three sides of

the machine which house the com-

plete rovings to spinning process.

In other words, yarns are spun by

the side of the machine and then fed

to it in a more normal way. The

F132-AJ spinning unit can be t-

ted to all Terrot single-jersey and

double-jersey machines. The direct

spin-knit system is even suitable for

high system densities and large di-

ameters (of up to 120 feeders) and

can be used in gauges from E20 to

E36.

The spinning system which is

modular can be tted with 24, 32 or

40 spinning heads per unit and has

an integrated yer, integrated uff

removal and integrated monitoring

process.

The fabrics have a top quality feel

and look, a soft handle and good

dyeability with rich colours. Elas-

tane plaiting is also possible with the

new Terrot system.

The F132-AJ has a speed factor of

up to 600 (20 rpm, 30) and unn-

ished fabric output of up to 360 kg

/ 24 hours (20 rpm, 30). The new

procedure offers a remarkable cus-

tomers benet with respect to 33-

40 per cent less required space, up to

50 per cent energy savings, up to 30

per cent less investment costs and up

to 50 per cent less production costs.
