Learning outcomes
|
Subject follows on the subject Textile Technologies I. Within the subject, the student will deepen the knowledge about the basics of knitting principles and terms. Topics related to the preparation of materials for knitting technology and the weft and warp knitting are discussed. Students will get to know the knitted patterns (weft and warp), their characteristics and functional principles of knits patterning in accordance with the working mechanisms of knitting machines, with the rules of flat and spatial shaping (fashioning) of knitwear. In general, other mechanisms and equipment of knitting machines are also mentioned.
Basic orientation in the production of knitting fabrics for clothing and technical applications. Specification and analysis of knitting structures, possibility of their production in the current portfolio of produced knitting machines. Characteristics and types of knitted fabrics, their applications and patterning possibilities, shaping (fashioning) and production of knitted goods.
