ABSTRACT:
A method for positively feeding yarn to a circular knitting machine includes adjusting a variable drive mechanism to vary the rate at which yarn is positively fed from a plurality of positive feed units to a circular knitting machine while the machine is operating. Because the positive yarn feed rate is adjustable while the circular knitting machine is operating, the time and labor required to produce knitted products is reduced. The positive yarn feed rate and the yarn tension of a circular knitting machine can be adjusted while the machine is operating. A controller coupled to the variable drive mechanism and the central stitch cam adjustment adjusts the positive yarn feed rate and the yarn tension.
