High-speed braiding machines and traditional braiding machines are two common equipment in the modern textile industry. Although both are used for textile fabrics, they are very different in terms of principles, performance, and scope of application. Xuzhou Qixing Machinery Co., Ltd. will elaborate on the differences in these aspects.
一、Principle and structure
The high-speed braiding machine is a new type of automated mechanical equipment that uses CNC technology and high-precision electronic control systems. Through automatic control of the knitting process, it simplifies the operator’s work and achieves high-efficiency knitting work. The overall structure of the high-speed braiding machine is relatively simple, mainly composed of the main parts such as the fuselage, transmission device, knitting area, and control system. Its working principle is to control high-speed rotating weaving needles through electronic technology to weave fabrics offline.
The traditional weaving machine is a traditional mechanical textile equipment. Its working principle mainly relies on artificial power to push the weaving device (such as the loom wheel) to rotate to meet the basic requirements of weaving. Its structure is relatively complex and consists of a weaving device, transmission device, control system, and other parts.
二、Production efficiency
The production efficiency of high-speed braiding machines is much higher than that of traditional knitting machines due to the use of advanced control technology and high-speed rotating knitting needles. Generally speaking, a high-speed braiding machine can complete dozens or even hundreds of weaving cycles per minute, thereby greatly improving the production efficiency of weaving, reducing production costs, and better meeting the needs of different customers.
Traditional braiding machines have relatively complex structures and time-consuming manual adjustments, so their production efficiency is relatively low.
三、Fabric quality
Because the fabric quality of high-speed braiding machines is controlled by advanced electronic technology, high-precision weaving needles, and excellent control systems, the quality is better than that of traditional weaving machines. Moreover, the high-speed braiding machine can make the fiber density of the fabric more uniform, thereby making the fabric quality denser and stronger.
Because traditional braiding machines are driven by hand, there will be some manual errors, resulting in relatively poor-quality fabrics.
四、Scope of application
High-speed braiding machines are more suitable for producing finer and higher-demand fabrics, such as underwear, sportswear, etc. Moreover, because of its higher precision, high-speed braiding machines will be more flexible in the selection of fabric fiber length, and can meet the needs of weaving different types of fibers.
Traditional braiding machines are more suitable for producing simpler fabrics, such as socks, bed sheets, etc. Because its working principle is relatively simple, it can complete production tasks quickly.
In summary, high-speed braiding machines and traditional braiding machines each have their own advantages and disadvantages. According to different fabric needs, different knitting equipment can be flexibly selected. With the continuous development of science and technology, both high-speed knitting machines and traditional braiding machines are constantly being improved and perfected to adapt to the changing needs of the textile industry.
