Tape/Tube Yarn Production Note
Tape and Tube Yarns are commonly made on small-cylinder tape knitting machines. In one production method, the outer shell and yarn guide rotate while the needle cylinder remains stable. The yarn guide position must match the needle’s up-and-down movement so the needle catches the yarn at the right moment.
If the guide position or feeding height is not correct, the needle tongue may cover the hook or push the yarn away, which can cause missed stitches, dropped loops or uneven tape density. During sample development, yarn count, material, guide position, take-up speed and knitted swatch appearance should be checked together.
Take-up/output roller speed can change tape density: faster take-up may stretch the loop and make the tape less dense, while slower take-up may create a denser tape. Coarser or finer yarns, metallic yarns, filament yarns, cotton yarns or space-dyed yarns can be selected according to the target effect.
