Knitting elements of Rachel m/c:
Needle:
Most of the modern Rachel knitting m/cs built today
use compound needle. Many m/cs, however, are still
equipped with latch needles.Compound needles are set as
in Tricot m/cs into trick which are cut into the needle bar and
both main parts and closing elements are driven
separately to open and close the hook.
Trick plate:
The loop formation in a Rachel m/c takes place on the
upper edge of the trick plate. Thisbar can be considered as
needle bed, since the needles are placed in tricks cut into it.
The sinker:
The sinker like the latch needles are cust in units 1″ long placed in the spaces between the needles. They are used to ensure that the fabric stays bowl while the needle rise to form their next knitting cycles. The sinker of Rachel m/cs are therefore only of secondary importance
The latch guard:
A steel wire which are extended from one ends to
the others parallel to the needle. During loop formation, the
fabric loops open needle latch but sometimes closed the
needle hook. As a result a closed hook cannot feed the new
yarn. This latch guard placed needle hook side. So that the
latch cannot close the hook and helps to open the needle
hook.
Guide & Guide bar:
The number of guide bar in Rachel m/c is more.
Sometimes are of more than 70. Two types of guide bar are
used-
•Fully threaded guide bar: Used to produce
ground fabric and yarn pass to eachguide.
•Partially threaded guide bar: According to the
design. One yarn is passed in each bar for
each pattern repeat. Thread pass where
design placed.
