New Tricot Machine from Karl Mayer: TM 4-S
The highly flexible models produce elastic and non-elastic fabrics, can process various material combinations and work a wide variety of patterns. The use of an electronic guide bar control system offers even greater design possibilities, while machines with the appropriate configuration are also available for special requirements, such as the production of terry and pile fabrics.
Its performance features include an exceptionally high speed – the maximum is 1,800 rpm – and a working width of 280ʺ, which can be further extended by 10ʺ. The TM 4-S therefore offers maximum productivity at an extremely attractive price, and the needle and guide bars were manufactured using proven carbon fibre technology to achieve high temperature stability and low weight.
The TM 4-S is extremely easy to handle
The TM 4-S is extremely easy to handle thanks to Karl Mayer’s well-thought-out man-machine interface and meets the exacting requirements set by the Group of companies.
As with all models in the four-bar product family, the new machine covers an extremely diverse production spectrum. Lightweight silk net and lingerie articles can be converted just as easily and efficiently as raised velour fabrics, shoe fabrics, home textiles or even upholstery fabrics for the automotive sector.
From the third quarter 2021, the TM 4-S will be sold. It is currently available in gauges E 28 and E 32, and the standard equipment includes a 4 x 32ʺ beam frame.
