In recent years, China's textile industry has achieved rapid development, the total output of textiles has accounted for one third of the world, and the export volume has reached one quarter of the world. In particular, the knitting industry, after the rapid development in recent years, has become one of the key industries in the textile industry, and also the most advantageous industry in the world. Zhejiang Province is also a strong traditional knitting industry. In recent years, a series of national industrial bases, such as socks, sweaters and warp knitting industries, have been established successively, especially the production of socks, which has gradually become one of the important economic pillars of Zhejiang Province.
1. Socks Market Situation
At present, the total domestic demand for cotton products is about 1.5 billion pairs per year, and increases by about 10%. The demand for socks products in the international market is about 1.8 billion pairs per year, and is growing by about 15%. Not only the demand for ordinary cotton socks is increasing day by day, but also the demand for high-end market, especially high-end sports socks, is growing geometrically. The market prospects of socks products are wide. Zhejiang Province is a major province in the production and export of socks products in China. There are many socks production enterprises. The proportion of their output accounts for about 70% of the total output of socks products in China. More than 80% of the total output should be exported to developed areas such as Europe and the United States. With the increasing demand for hosiery products, the demand for new computer sock knitting machines is also increasing sharply.
2. The Development of Double Needle Cylinder Computerized Hosiery Machine
Due to the high degree of automation and intellectualization of the double-needle computer sock machine, the domestic machinery production companies are only in the stage of joint venture production or simple imitation with foreign enterprises, the mechanical design is relatively backward, the steel processing accuracy is poor, and the corresponding theoretical research is lacking, especially the in-depth study of its key components. The analysis shows that it can not meet the requirements of localization and industrialization, and has become a technical bottleneck in the production of high-grade socks products, which seriously restricts the development of socks production enterprises. Comparing with traditional hosiery machine, double-barrel computerized hosiery machine is equipped with two upper and lower barrels for knitting, which can make the production process from sock mouth to sock knitting end. The whole knitting process is carried out continuously, which cancels the heavy labor of manual sleeve, reduces the production process of socks and greatly improves the high-grade socks. The production efficiency and technical level of this kind of products, the market demand for this sock machine is increasing. In recent years, the state has increased its investment in the research and development of double-needle computer sock machine. The production enterprises of double-needle computer sock machine have flourished all over the country, but there is still a big gap between the overall technical level and processing accuracy and the top foreign sock machine manufacturers.
Due to the high price of imported double-needle computerized hosiery machine, domestic hosiery manufacturers can not solve the technical upgrading of double-needle computerized hosiery machine through a large number of imports. Therefore, it is of great significance to accelerate independent technology research and development and production of double-needle computerized hosiery machine.
