Karl Mayer Tricot machine HKS 2

Two machine concepts for your business success.

The huge variety of modern  textiles requires attention to be focused  on different aspects and certain specific conditions during pro- duction.

For the production of two-bar  tricot fabrics the market can choose  between two kinds of machine:HKS 2-M and HKS 2-3.

while the HkS 2-M is more flexible in terms of coarse gauge and less  stitch density, the HkS 2-3 is flexible enough to produce  rigid

as well as elastic fabrics even in finer gauge.

• High-performance knitting machines capable of producing a wide range of products

• an extended range of patterns and articles

• Highest operational reliability

• Long service life
