ASM 10

The ASM-10 scanner continues a tradition initiated by Appalachian in the 1950's to provide very effective defect detection at the needles in high speed tricot, Raschel and weft-insertion machinery.

Designed to meet the needs of today's machined speeds and quality demands, the ASM-10 is designed for very fine fault detection at traverse speeds up to 125 cm/second (50"/second). The ASM-10 scans the same defect two or more times before the machine stops thus avoiding "false stops".  And we made the set-up job easy for knitters with menu-driven programming.

The ASM-10 includes a pre-assembled rail, processor-based operator control, power supply, adjustable detector arm/head and menu-driven programming.   Applicable fabrics include 2/3-bar tricot, fine Denier, multibar Raschel, stretch lycra, weft-insertion, mesh.

Very often applied in combination with SCANNAIR, the ASM-10 provides for greater machine productivity, multiple machine assignments and reduced off-quality fabric.
