HKS 4-EL: Unmatched Flexibility and Performance in Warp Knitting
The HKS 4-EL tricot machine sets new industry standards with its exceptional flexibility, advanced connectivity, and superior efficiency. Designed for both elastic and non-elastic net textiles, it caters to the evolving demands of high-performance textile applications with unmatched precision and speed.
Key Advantages
Enhanced Patterning with EL System
Powered by an advanced EL system, the HKS 4-EL offers unparalleled patterning flexibility, enabling a wider range of designs with superior efficiency. Operating at speeds over 2000 RPM, this machine ensures high-output production with precision stitch accuracy, delivering industry-leading performance.
Innovative Zig-Zag Pattern Technology
The integration of an EL servo drive system enables the creation of intricate zig-zag patterns, expanding design capabilities beyond traditional limitations. Unlike conventional machines, which compromise speed for complexity, the HKS 4-EL delivers both—empowering manufacturers with greater creative control.
Breakthrough Connectivity and Control
The GrandStar System introduces next-generation patterning technology with intelligent connectivity. This state-of-the-art control system ensures seamless workflow integration, real-time monitoring, and unmatched production precision, giving textile manufacturers a distinct competitive edge.
Effortless Guide Bar Adjustments
The Spring Motion Assistant allows for quick, tool-free guide bar changes, significantly enhancing operational efficiency. Unlike traditional models requiring manual intervention, this feature streamlines pattern changes, reducing downtime and improving productivity.
Unlimited Lapping Potential
While standard warp knitting machines restrict lapping options to 36 stitches, the HKS 4-EL eliminates these constraints. The GrandStar System enables manufacturers to create complex, fully customized patterns without limitations—offering limitless possibilities in textile innovation.

Crinkle Fabrics
Warp knitting combined with crinkling techniques creates warp knitting crinkle fabric. This fabric features a stretchy, textured surface with a subtle crinkled effect, achieved through an extended needle bar movement with EL. Its elasticity varies based on yarn selection and knitting methods.
Sports Wear
Equipped with the EL system, GrandStar warp knitting machines can produce athletic mesh fabrics with varying specifications and structures, tailored to different yarn and pattern requirements. These mesh fabrics enhance breathability, making them ideal for sportswear.
Sofa Velevet
Our warp knitting machines produce high-quality velvet/tricot fabrics with unique pile effects. The pile is created by the front bar (bar II), while the rear bar (bar I) forms a dense, stable knitted base. The fabric structure combines a plain and counter notation tricot construction, with ground guide bars ensuring precise yarn positioning for optimal texture and durability.
Automotive Interior
Warp knitting machines from GrandStar enable the production of high-performance automotive interior fabrics. These fabrics are crafted using a specialized four-comb braiding technique on Tricot machines, ensuring durability and flexibility. The unique warp knitting structure prevents wrinkling when bonded with interior panels. Ideal for ceilings, skylight panels, and trunk covers.
Shoes Fabrics
Tricot warp knitted shoe fabrics offer durability, elasticity, and breathability, ensuring a snug yet comfortable fit. Engineered for athletic and casual footwear, they resist wear and tear while maintaining a lightweight feel for enhanced comfort.
Yoga Clothing
Warp-knitted fabrics offer exceptional stretch and recovery, ensuring flexibility and freedom of movement for yoga practice. They are highly breathable and moisture-wicking, keeping the body cool and dry during intense sessions. With superior durability, these fabrics withstand frequent stretching, bending, and washing. Seamless construction enhances comfort, minimizing friction.
