  • the invention also relates to a method for producing knitwear comprising a knitting machine and at least one roving warping and consolidation unit, by means of which a roving unit in the form of an unconsolidated fiber structure is provided by a roving supply unit, which feed roving in the form of at least one roving to a drafting system in a roving conveying direction is, the roving is warped by the drafting, and the emerging from the drafting, warped roving is applied by a spinneret device on a fiber consolidation line with compressed air and thereby solidified.
  • the core of the fiber structure includes, based on its cross section, the largest proportion of the fibers.
  • the Umwindemaschinen wrap around the core and overlap and interlock with each other.
  • the solidification of the fiber structure achieved thereby is not equivalent to an effective yarn twist, as it can be achieved, for example, on ring spinning machines. Instead, only a so-called false-twisted wire is formed by the spinneret, the twisting of which would more or less dissolve when wrapped by binding fibers Fiber structure after the spinneret longer distances would have to travel on the way to the knitting machine.
  • a tube is used, through which the looped fiber structure is fed on a short path directly to the knitting needles of the knitting machine. With the help of the knitting needles then a final solidification of the fiber structure within the knit fabric produced.

  • a device for producing a knitted fabric is described on a knitting device, wherein each knitting point of the knitting device is preceded by a drafting device for producing a warped fiber structure.
  • at least one active transport element for the warped fiber structure is arranged between the pair of output rollers of the drafting system and the knitting point.

  • one or more swirl devices are arranged between the pair of delivery rollers of the drafting system and the active transport element, which impart sufficient strength to the fiber structure consisting essentially of parallel fibers for transport to the knitting point.
  • Spinning tubes each with a pneumatically acting swirl nozzle, are proposed as swirling devices. If the distance between the active transport element and the knitting point is smaller than the average fiber length of the warped fiber structure, the fiber structure can be fed directly to the knitting point. However, if this distance is greater than the average fiber length, a further twisting device is arranged between the active transport element and the knitting point, which gives the warped fiber structure sufficient strength for transport.
  • the publication DE 10 2007 052 190 A1 discloses a method and apparatus for improving the quality of a fiber strand of staple fibers leaving a drafting system. It is proposed to arrange a sensor for the incoming into the drafting sliver or roving before the drafting. As a result, the quality of the fiber structure or process can be monitored in front of the drafting system and defects are eliminated there. In addition, upon detection of variations in mass of the fiber structure or roving, the drafting system or a downstream stretching device can be stopped.

This avoids that due to the lack of supply of fiber material by the drafting an over-rotation of the already present in the spinneret system fiber material takes place in the spinnerets. The latter would result in damage and destruction of the newly formed solidified roving after a short time.
