Pilotelli Macchine Tessili Sinkerless Technology SL-4 Powerful Single Jersey production
The SL4 version, latest generation of Pilotelli’s sinkerless technology, incorporates newly engineered technology that is patented by Terrot. Easy to use, the Pilotelli sinkerless machine guarantees high output and reduced maintenance.
This machine model stands for extremely reliable plating technology – especially in use of elastane, very low maintenance up to 10 times fewer and user-friendly operation. It masters fine fabrics up to gauge E40 and the stitch forming technique is in a stationary point of the cylinder. Consequently one obtains a superior uniformity of the stitch and a total absence of vertical lines. This does not only improve fabric quality but also supports easy maintenance and energy saving. Due to the absent of conventional sinkers the cleaning frequency of the knitting head is reduced. The in-build click-clack system solves the problem of picking up the dropped-off fabric. In traditional machines, sinkers must be replaced after a certain period of time because of the wearing out caused in the knock-over area.
The SL-4 model is available with tubular frame or open width frame, and is also available in special configuration for high-speed production. This machine model is ideal for the production of leisure wear textiles.
The model SL-4 J 3.0-4 T.3 will be exhibited at ITMA ASIA:
