Circular knitting machines are specialised industrial equipment designed to knit fabrics  in a seamless, tubular and open width format. In contrast to flat knitting machines that create rectangular pieces, circular machines utilise a series of needles arranged in a circular pattern to knit continuously in the round. These machines are extensively employed in the textile sector to produce variety of jersey fabrics such as T-shirts, Jackets, leggings, upholstery, undergarments etc. They are mainly available in various diameters and gauges, they cater to different fabric thicknesses and textures. Depending on the configuration of the needle beds, they can be classified as single-jersey or double-jersey. High-speed variants can achieve over 30 revolutions per minute, facilitating efficient mass production. Contemporary circular knitting machines are often equipped with computerised controls that enable automatic patterning, tension adjustments, and fault detection. They are compatible with a range of yarns, including cotton, wool, and synthetic fibers. Their capacity to produce large quantities of consistent, high-quality fabric renders them indispensable in apparel manufacturing. Ongoing advancements in automation and electronic controls have enhanced precision, speed, and energy efficiency. Circular knitting machines are preferred not only for their productivity but also for their ability to create comfortable, stretchable fabrics that are well-suited for modern fashion and sportswear.
