Adjusting yarn delivery on friction feed wheel *
The friction rollers have a constant peripheral speed and feed the maximum
amount of thread consumed by the knitting machine. To adjust the yarn
delivery to the actual consumption, the winding angle of the thread is
modified. If the winding angle is enlarged, then the friction force increases
and the friction feed wheel delivers more thread. The friction feed wheel
should always feed somewhat more thread than the yarn carriers consume.
Depending on machine model and component type, there are different
models of friction feed wheels.
Type 1
