Knitting Tension During Weft-Knitting
Knitting tension during weft-knitting is experimentally investigated with the aid of a model apparatus and a circular knitting machine. Although the knitting velocity in our experiment using the circular knitting machine was much lower than the ordinary velocity, it is possible to estimate real knitting tension from the results given in this article ...
