Function / programming of the weave-in presser foot

Prensador de hilo de trama

El prensatrama es activado y desactivado en el M1plus a través de una columna de control. Esta columna de control puede ser llamada tanto en la muestra de diseño como también en un Color Arrangement.

I. Use of the weft yarn presser foot:

The weft yarn presser foot is always active leading the knitting system

Weft yarn carrier - activated weft yarn presser foot - knitting yarn carrier in the following knitting system

The weft yarn presser foot is only active in the area, where the following knitting system is in action.

The weft yarn presser foot is activated before the first knitting needle and deactivated after the last knitting needle.
In the areas, where the weft yarn presser foot is activated and deactivated, no yarn carriers may be positioned.

Activar / desactivar el prensatrama

El prensatrama es activado / desactivado independientemente de la velocidad del carro.

II. >How YDopt works:

Parking area for the yarn carriers that are knitting in the pattern row

: The yarn carriers are positioned staggered

Parking position (waiting area) for the momentarily non knitting yarn carriers

: The yarn carriers are positioned staggered

The yarn carriers are positioned staggered with a wide distance (parking position) in relation to the fabric selvedge.
The required yarn carriers are taken out of the parking position and start knitting.
While knitting, the active yarn carrier receives a new parking position and will be positioned much closer to the fabric selvedge.
The parking position is optimized (YDopt).
After the last knitting row, the active yarn carrier is returned to the parking position.
The following, knitting yarn carrier is taken out of the parking position and also positioned at the fabric selvedge with YDopt.

III. Yarn carrier parking positions at the fabric selvedge - YDopt and YD

Programación solo con YDopt

En la programación con prensador de trama es obligatorio el uso de YDopt (escalonamiento automático de los guiahilos en el borde del tejido). Para esto las necesarias posiciones de parada de los guiahilos en las respectivas pasadas técnicas son tenidas en cuenta por el M1plus y entradas en Sintral.

A	Area with working weft yarn presser foot (weft yarn presser foot active)
B	Area for staggering the used yarn carriers with YDopt : In the Configuration / YD yarn carrier distance from the fabric selvedge dialog box under Optimized parking position, the number of used positions for YDopt can be influenced.
C	Area for activating / deactivating the weft yarn presser foot : This area always is the same, no matter if activating the weft yarn presser foot within or outside of the fabric.
D	YD default values for all the non knitting yarn carriers that are parked at the fabric selvedge. : YD values are specified in the Yarn Field Allocation dialog box.

Yarn carrier distances a the fabric selvedge (outside shape):

A	Positioning the yarn carrier for using the weft yarn presser foot in the following knitting row
1	Distance of the yarn carrier from fabric selvedge when activating the weft yarn presser foot - approx. 23 nic
2	Distance of the yarn carrier from fabric selvedge when deactivating the weft yarn presser foot - approx. 23 nic

Extension of the yarn carrier path with float plus overrun path of 12 nic

Distance of the yarn carrier in the fabric starting at the first knitting needle when activating the weft yarn presser foot - approx. 23 nic

Distance of the yarn carrier in the fabric starting at the last knitting needle when deactivating the weft yarn presser foot - approx. 23 nic

Guiahilos basculados

Los guiahilos parados basculados se encuentran al lado de la primera / última acción de la aguja fuera del sector de activación del prensatrama. El prensatrama no colisiona con estos guiahilos.

F1	The area is plated with the yarn carrier 9A (light blue) and 7A (red)
F2	In this area the yarn carrier 9A (light blue) is redefined to a weft yarn carrier and the yarn carrier 7A (red) knits following. The weave-in device is activated. Weft yarn carrier 9A (light blue) - (weft yarn carrier cannot be swiveled) Knitting yarn carrier 7A (red)
1	Distance of the yarn carrier starting at the first knitting needle when activating the weave-in device - approx. 23 nic
2	Distance of the yarn carrier in the fabric starting at the last knitting needle when deactivating the weave-in device - approx. 35 nic

Las mismas distancias de guiahilos también son utilizadas para la misma situación de tisaje en el borde del tejido.
