Tricot Machine

GrandStar tricot machines deliver high-efficiency production of upholstery textiles, automotive fabrics, and both elastic and rigid materials. Available in 2–5 guide-bar configurations, they support a full range of fabric constructions, from stretch to non-stretch, with options for EL and pattern-disk control. Unlike Raschel machines, tricot models prioritize speed and precision, with our HKS2 and HKS3 series running at 2,000–3,800 rpm through advanced crank-lever engineering and optimized motion technology.

FAQS FAQs

Our laser equipment product line encompasses a variety of cutting.

1

What fabric applications are GrandStar’s tricot machines designed for?

GrandStar tricot range covers a wide spectrum of applications, including automotive interiors, home textiles, upholstery, elastic and rigid apparel fabrics. With different bar configurations and patterning options, one platform can support multiple article families, from lightweight lingerie bases to home textiles. This helps mills consolidate styles on fewer machine types and simplify investment planning.
2

How do GrandStar tricot machines differ from competing tricot machines?

GrandStar focuses on high mechanical rigidity, stable running at high speeds, and consistent loop formation rather than headline speed alone. Our mechanical frame, cam/lever geometry, and yarn-path design are engineered to minimize vibration and needle wear, so machines stay on quality at higher RPM with less intervention. You'll produce more high-quality output, with less downtime for repairs. you get a more attractive cost per kilogram over the machine's entire life.
3

What configuration options (bars, gauges, widths) are available?

GrandStar tricot machines come in various bar configurations to accommodate plain, mesh, and intricate lapping designs. We provide an extensive selection of gauges and working widths to align with various yarn counts and article constructions, catering to everything from fine denier apparel fabrics to coarse industrial meshes. Your final specifications are tailored to your specific needs, including end-use, yarn system, and desired output, moving away from a generic, one-size-fits-all catalog approach.
4

How do GrandStar tricot machines ensure fabric quality at high production speeds?

The optimization of yarn tension control, and precise guide-bar movement are optimized as a system. GrandStar advanced let-off and take-up technology, coupled with high-accuracy drives, ensure that stitch size, GSM, and fabric appearance are consistent throughout the entire speed range. Consequently, knitting factory are able to operate nearer to the machine's technical limits while still meeting stringent quality standards for demanding clients in the automotive, sportswear, and technical textiles sectors.
5

Can GrandStar customize tricot machines for specific process requirements?

Yes. Alongside our standard models, we can customized warp knitting machine to meet the specific needs of your yarns, constructions, and downstream processes. This may include customized yarn paths, modified take-up concepts, or bespoke accessories for elastane, high-shrink fibers, monofilaments, or technical yarns. Our engineering team works with your technologists to ensure the machine specification is aligned with your product roadmap, not just your current styles.
6

How competitive is the productivity and cost-per-kg of GrandStar tricot machines?

By combining high running speeds, stable efficiency, and low downtime, GrandStar machines are designed to deliver a very competitive cost per kilogram of fabric. The focus on durable mechanical components and easy maintenance keeps lifecycle costs under control, especially in multi-shift production environments. For investment projects, we can support basic productivity and ROI calculations so decision-makers can compare GrandStar realistically with alternative technologies.
7

What kind of yarns and constructions can be processed on GrandStar tricot machines?

GrandStar tricot machine can accommodate a diverse range of yarn systems, including filament polyester, nylon, elastane blends, and specific specialized yarns, depending on the model and gauge. The constructions range from basic locknit and pillar/laid-in fabrics to engineered meshes and functional structures suitable for automotive, sports, and industrial uses. During the project phase, we assess your preferred fabric portfolio to confirm that yarn compatibility and construction options are viable.
