Dynamic Analysis of the Latch Needle of the Circular Knitting Machine

환편기 편직바늘의 동역학해석

The latch needle cam system of circular knitting machines is analysed using multibody dynamics. A formulation is made to obtain the vertical stiffness between the needle and the cam. By implementing this formulation into data of the multibody dynamics program, the motion and the force between the needle and the cam are obtained.
