Mayer & Cie knitting oil

Circular Mayer&Cie knitting machine sinkers oil

Rundstrickmaschinen Oel

The needle of a circular knitting machine has a wet zone and a dry zone. The part of the needle which is inside the cylinder tricks and the cam boxes is the wet zone of the needle, which is in constant contact with the lubricating oil. The dry zone is the part of the needle which is protruding outside the cylinder tricks and cam boxes. This dry zone of the needle should be free of any lubricating oil.

The needles make the contact with the knitted fabric and the yarn in the dry zone. The problem begins when the lubricating oil starts to migrate to the dry zone of the needles and then starts to transfer to the knitted fabric, causing oil lines.

Using the correct lubricant on bottom steel rollers in Spinning eliminates ‘stick and slip’ with the benefit of reducing thick and thin places in yarn. Weavers can increase their p.p.m. and Knitters will spend less time replacing sinkers and needles. Pin chains working at high temperatures in textile stenters and dryers must be free of vibration and must not stretch.

Your textile machinery operates in many different working environments and the correct specification of lubricant prevents breakdowns and allows machinery to produce higher quality products, allowing you more time for other projects.
