Abstract:Yarn feeding is a crucial step in various stages of the textile industry, and plays an important role in ensuring the stable operation of knitting machines. In response to the working environment of yarn feeders and the periodic intermittent yarn usage in loop forming systems, this paper proposes a new type of piezoelectric-actuated yarn feeder with the characteristics of small size, low energy consumption, switchable yarn feeding modes, and self-locking. The working principle of the new yarn feeder is systema… Show more
