Method for designing shaped knits to be produced on a flat knitting machine using a design device and design device

摘要

The method involves loading a section (6) of a profiled knitted fabric from memory of a drafting device. The section of the knitted fabric is positioned on a base pattern (1) in a vector symbol representation, and sectional data with knitting data of the base pattern without converting knitting-related sectional data into needle-related knitting data. The section of the knitted fabric is adjusted at the base pattern if machine controlled data is created for section positioning. A conflict is displayed between the sectional data and knitting data of the base pattern. An independent claim is also included for a device for designing a profiled knitted fabric on a flat knitting machine by a drafting device, comprising a storage unit.
