Databases cover knitting inspection processes, fabric dyeing and finishing, garment manufacturing, in process sewing, and finished garment audits. Todd Diggs, regional sales manager for Vanguard Supreme, Monroe, N.C., reviewed new technology in circular knitting machines and accessories. The super high speed machine is designed to give knitters more production capability in less space, and to save energy and labor costs, according to Diggs. Diggs also discussed the Filter Flow 2000, an attachment that prevents accumulation of lint and debris in needles thereby improving needle and sinker life while requiring less oil and maintenance. According to Diggs, the Filter Flow ends the need to flush the machine, preventing oil spots, oil lines and graphite lines.
Fabric waste is said to be reduced dramatically.
