Abstract

The popular warp knitted structures are mainly produced with two full guide bars. The structures are based on two-course repeat cycle and direction of lapping changes in every course. Considering two guide bars, the nature of guide bar lapping movement has been discussed for producing some of the popular warp knitted structures. Addition of guide bars improves the stability and other desired properties as well as the patterning facility. But presence of too many guide bars makes the machine complicated and costly. Judicious selection of required number of guide bars in the machine as well as their nature of movement for lapping of yarn around the needles makes it possible to produce various types of decorative and functional fabrics in warp knitting. The different types of structures generally produced in warp knitting have been discussed in this chapter.
