Equipment Used in Industrial Jacquard Sweater Manufacturing













Sweater manufacturing involves multiple sequential stages, each requiring specialized equipment based on the production scale (industrial vs. artisanal), construction type (fully fashioned, cut-and-sew, or seamless), and design complexity (basic to high-fashion styles). Below is a detailed breakdown of the key machine types used in the industrial production of knitted sweaters, which dominate global sweater manufacturing.

01. Yarn Preparation / Cone Winding Machine (SKS-757. SKS-77) 
Used to transfer yarn from hank or bulk packaging onto cones, ensuring consistent tension and smooth feeding during the knitting process.



 
02. Flat Knitting Machine
Used for producing shaped sweater panels (body, sleeves, collars) in a fully-fashioned manner. Machines may be manual, semi-automatic, or computer-controlled (CNC).

03. Linking Machine ( #SKS-757-03) 
Connects separate knitted panels through precise loop-to-loop stitching, ensuring a seamless and clean finish at joints (e.g., sleeves to body). Available in manual and computerized models.

04. Cutting and Trimming (mainly for cut-and-sew sweaters)
05. Cutting Table and Fabric Cutter
Used for manual or semi-automated cutting of knitted fabric rolls into pattern shapes.

06. Laser Cutter
High-precision automated cutting system suitable for large-scale production or complex pattern layouts.

07. Thread Trimmer
Removes excess threads post-assembly to maintain garment appearance and quality.

08. Sewing and Assembly
09. Overlock Sewing Machine (Serger)
Used to sew and finish raw edges simultaneously, preventing fraying and improving seam durability.

10. Flatlock Machine
Creates flat seams, often used in seamless garments or for decorative external stitching.

11. Chain Stitch Machine
Used for high-stress areas such as shoulders or decorative seams, providing flexibility and strength.

12. Bartack Machine
Reinforces high-stress points such as armholes, necklines, and pocket openings.

13. Washing and Finishing   
Removes knitting oils, dirt, and impurities from the fabric while softening the hand feel.

14. Drying Machine / Tumble Dryer
Efficiently dries garments post-wash, often with moisture and temperature control.

15. Steam Iron or Steam Press
Applies heat and pressure to shape and set garments, improving final appearance.


16. Finishing Machine
Used for specialized treatments such as fulling (for wool), pre-shrinking, anti-pilling, or wrinkle resistance.
