  • Patent number: 10443157
    Abstract: A machine for the production of knitted goods includes a plurality of stitch-forming elements, at least one stitch-forming location, an associated spinning device at the at least one stitch-forming location, at which a sliver (FB) or a yarn is produced from a roving yarn (VG) and the sliver (FB) or yarn is fed to the stitch-forming elements. The spinning device has separate drive devices, which can be actuated in a manner that enables the spinning device to produce a sliver (FB) or a yarn of variable thickness from roving yarn (VG) and which can be fed to the stitch-forming elements.
