Experiment Name 01 (Socks)

This document summarizes an experiment on a hand socks circular knitting machine. The objectives are to understand the machine's operating system, functions, and loop formation process. It provides specifications of the machine like its name, model number, diameter, gauge, number of needles, feeder type, manufacturer, and origin. The main parts are described including the latch needle, cylinder, feeder, yarn carrier, knit cam, gears, and handle. The loop formation process and working principle are explained involving placing the yarn and rotating the handle to create loops through the needles. The process of making a sock including the elastic, leg, heel, and toe parts is outlined. Remarks stress the importance of being careful during operation

Loop Formation process:

Working Principle:

At first we need to check that the machine has no problem and working well and all
the needles are ok. Firstly we need to take a cone placed at the machine yarn
carrier and yarn passing from cone to needle by yarn guide. Then we need to take
place the yarn into the needle to hold up the yarn on it and all the needles must be
in working position. After that we hold up the machine handle and rotate the handle
clockwise. During this operation we can see that every needle comes to operation
and creating loop by above loop formation. We know that a sock has some parts
according to its size. At first we have to placed a elastic yarn as feed to complete
the elastic part. It is about 30 coarse to complete the elastic part. We have to
maintain a uniform downwards tension of fabric to create a loop so we should place
a weight with fabric. After that we remove the elastic yarn and continuing the
rotation about 100 coarse to complete the leg part if sometimes the loop is missing
then this needle should to rising and after a rotation turn up the needle down when
it takes the yarn. After completing the leg part we need to raise the half of total
needles in out of operation from the back side of the needle cam box. Then by rising
one of operating needle from each side we first rotate the handle clockwise for
rising one needle and anti-clockwise for rising another one needle from opposite
side. Continue this process until about 10-12 needles are in operation of front side
of cam box. After that we have to lowering the two needles each time from each
side and rotate the handle clockwise and anti-clockwise by following previous
theory. When all the needles comes to operation then continue the first process
about 110 rotations to make the feed side. At last the toe side is stitched by a
sewing machine to complete the one sock. The same theory is applied to make the
another one. This is the process of making the one pair of socks.

Operation of machine:

Remarks:
We have to careful during all the process because its loop formation can be
missing by needle.
The yarn must not be in more tension.
The rotations of handle must be in mind.
All process must be in actual size and must be maintain for making one pair
of socks.
When the heel is in operation we must be carefully operate the handle and
we must be maintain the calculations of number of coarse to make it.
