The compound needle is a core knitting element in modern warp knitting machines, designed for exceptional accuracy, durability, and smooth yarn manipulation. Known for its dual-part structure—consisting of a fixed needle shaft and a sliding closing element—the compound needle delivers superior loop formation and stitch consistency, making it essential for a wide range of warp knitting applications. Whether you're producing technical textiles, fashion fabrics, or industrial mesh, the compound needle ensures optimal performance and fabric quality.
The compound needle is widely used in tricot and raschel warp knitting machines for the production of sportswear, lace, tulle, automotive textiles, spacer fabrics, and technical textiles. Its precise motion ensures uniform stitch formation, making it ideal for complex patterns and high-speed, long-duration operations. The compound needle is a must-have for manufacturers prioritizing productivity and high fabric quality.
