<p>A method and apparatus for producing large rolls of tubular fabric knitted on a small diameter circular knitting machine (100) of the type having fabric takedown rollers (115) for pulling the fabric from the knitting cylinder (111), and a takeup roller (130) for winding up the fabric into a roll, including a traversing mechanism (120) that is operatively associated with and positioned upstream of the tubular fabric takedown rollers (115) so that the fabric is moved back and forth along the length of the take down rollers, so that the width of the fabric roll wound upon the takeup roller is substantially the length of the take down rollers. Further, the fabric leaving the takedown rollers is surface driven to provide constant speed and tension.</p> |
