Abstract
A universal circular knitting machine with a plurality of knitting stations, having two revolving cylinders axially aligned with each other surrounded by cam skirts, selection devices, stitch length regulation devices and yarn selector devices mounted on a stationary structure. Each movable element for determining needle selection and needle vertical movement, along with yarn-guide actuation, is driven by an electromechanical actuator mounted on the stationary structure. A central electronic control unit sends actuation command signals to the electromechanical actuators. The signals are synchronized with the revolution of the cylinders in accordance with a pattern corresponding to a knitted fabric to be produced.
