Karl Mayer extends its HKS 3-M series

摘要

Karl Mayer has extended its successful model in the HKS machine series, the HKS 3-M, by including a version having a wider working width. To complement the current machines with widths of 186" and 218", a version with a width of 280" is now available. According to Karl Mayer, the HKS 3-M, 280" is the widest tricot machine available on the global market, and its wider width is said to deliver greater productivity and flexibility. Like all the HKS three-bar machines, this new machine targets a wide variety of end-uses, from car interiors, through furniture and sportswear, to coating/ backing substrates and advertising media. According to Karl Mayer, fabrics processed with different widths can now be produced on one machine instead of two. The simultaneous production of webs can also be increased by a factor of one, ie two webs can be produced on a 186"-wide machine compared to three webs on a 280"-wide machine, and three webs can be produced on a 218"-wide machine as opposed to four on the new machine.
