Knitted Fabric Raising and Intermediate Shearing Circular Knitting Machine

Hair Raising Machine Function and Equipment Features

The Hair Raising Machine is a specialized textile finishing machine used to raise or lift the surface fibers of fabrics to create a soft, warm, and fluffy texture. This process, often referred to as "raising" or "napping," enhances the tactile quality, insulation, and appearance of textiles such as wool, cotton, or synthetic blends.

Knitted Fabric Raising and Intermediate Shearing Circular Knitting Machine

This is a specialized circular knitting machine designed for:

• Raising (brushing) the surface of knitted fabric to make it soft, fuzzy, or velvet-like.

• Intermediate shearing, which refers to the controlled cutting or trimming of fibers raised from the fabric surface to ensure a smooth and even finish.

• It usually works with pile fabrics, such as terry, fleece, or brushed knits.

? Needle Specification:

➤ Upper Needles: 26 Needles

• These are typically the main knitting or brushing elements.

• In the raising process, upper needles may be part of the brushing rollers or raising drums.

• If referring to knitting elements, this can be a high gauge, indicating finer yarns or denser loops.

➤ Lower Needles: 13 Needles

• These may serve as supporting knitting or trimming elements.

• In brushing or shearing machines, lower needles could also guide the fabric or provide tension.

⚠️ Note: If this is a circular knitting machine with integrated raising/shearing, then:

• 26 vs. 13 might refer to the ratio or distribution of needles per inch (gauge) or per segment on upper and lower beds.

• Some machines have dual needle beds or combination needle and blade drums.

? Gauge & Diameter (Likely Required for Full Spec):

To fully understand this machine’s spec, you would typically need to know:

• Cylinder diameter (e.g., 26", 30")

• Gauge (e.g., 18G, 24G — number of needles per inch)

• Speed (RPM, revolutions per minute)

• Number of feeders

• Type of fabric output (e.g., single jersey fleece, interlock brushed)

✅ Use Cases:

Machines with this kind of configuration are used in:

• Fleece-lined fabric production

• Velour or velvet finishing

• Activewear and thermal clothing fabric manufacturing

Main Function:

The machine works by passing fabric over rotating rollers equipped with wire-covered surfaces or abrasive materials. These rollers gently pull the surface fibers outward, forming a pile on the fabric. The height and density of the pile can be controlled depending on the settings and configuration of the machine.

Equipment Features:

1. Medium Wool 60

   • Designed for medium-length wool fibers

   • Uses 60 raising rollers for consistent and balanced fiber lifting

   • Ideal for medium-weight woolen fabrics needing a soft, uniform finish

2. Medium Wool Machine

   • Optimized for processing medium-grade wool

   • Provides adjustable speed and pressure settings for different fabric densities

   • Ensures versatility for a range of wool textile applications

3. High Wool 60

   • Suited for high-pile wool fabrics requiring deeper raising

   • Equipped with 60 high-performance rollers

   • Produces a thicker, warmer texture—ideal for winter apparel and heavy woolen goods

4. Short Wool 30

   • Tailored for shorter wool fibers and lighter fabrics

   • Utilizes 30 raising rollers for a gentler raising effect

   • Delivers a smooth, soft finish without damaging delicate materials
