Model CD-2/CD-4 Knit Braider
Description
High Speed Small Diameter Circular Warp Knitting Machine
The CD-2 Knit Braider is one of the fastest and most efficient circular warp knitting machines used in production today. The CD-2, as with all LAMB Knit Braiders, incorporates the use of stationary packages which eliminates the need for costly yarn respooling (bobbin winding). It is specifically designed for the high speed production of materials 3/8″ diameter or less. The CD-2 is used for knit braiding shoelaces, soft and hard drawstrings, elastic or rigid cords (with or without core) and trims.
The CD-4 Knit Braider, a modified version of the CD-2, offers the newest in circular warp knitting – pattern capability. The CD-4 is used to produce cords with either a spiral, zig-zag or chain stitch, something no other production knit braider can offer today.
