Dickson Industries Introduces New Flat-Bed Knitting Capabilities
Dickson Industries, a leading manufacturer of knitted fabrics, is excited to announce the expansion of its knitting capabilities with the purchase of new Stoll flat-bed knitting machines. More efficient and detailed in design, these innovative machines reduce waste with remarkable precision, allowing Dickson to continue meeting the needs of its customers while creating a wide range of new offerings for the medical, furniture, fashion and automotive industries.
With flat-bed knitting, Dickson Industries has unlocked a new level of production capability. This cutting-edge technology ensures an even tension on the yarn, enabling the creation of whole garments with minimal or no cutting required. This process offers a multitude of benefits that drive efficiency, consistency, and design precision.
Benefits of Flat-Bed Knitting:
- Consistent results: Flat-bed knitting machines produce fabric with more consistent tension, which results in a higher quality product.
- Reduction of waste: Flat-bed knitting machines require less yarn than circular knitting machines, which reduces waste.
- Reduction of post-knitting labor: Flat-bed knitting machines can produce fabric that is ready to be shipped, which reduces the amount of labor required for post-knitting operations.
