ABSTRACT:
An automatic method for adjusting the relative height between a needle cylinder and a stitch forming cam of an automatic knitting machine. A control means stores information for each different type of yarn that the machine might use. This information consists of a relative height for each of two different widths of the item being knitted. Using these two pairs of numbers, the proper relative height for any given width can be calculated using a linear equation. As a stocking is automatically knitted, and different zones of the stocking are produced, the proper relative height is calculated using the stored information, eliminating the need for manual adjustment of either the needle cylinder or the stitch forming cam.
