Driven by its commitment to continuous innovation, Italian socks machine builder Busi Giovanni has enhanced its stitch-by-stitch toe-closing device to enable seamless sewing of open tubes.

“Among our range of models, Busi Medical stands out as the ideal machine for producing graduated compression socks and sleeves,” commented Technical Director, Leonardo Busi.

The innovative machine combines fully automatic, stitch-by-stitch toe-closing with the capability to knit true rib structures and intricate patterns in up to five colours.

“Driven by our commitment to continuous innovation, we’ve enhanced the stitch-by-stitch toe-closing device to enable seamless sewing of open tubes,” Leonardo Busi adds. “This advancement eliminates the need for time-consuming manual work when finalising open-ended sleeves, significantly streamlining production and boosting efficiency.”

According to the company, the distinctive sleeve structure seen in the above image is achievable exclusively through the combination of Busi Medical and Busi Rimaglio.

“Our machines are designed to enable the production of a wide variety of socks and sleeves. To explore the full potential of Busi machines, please don’t hesitate to contact us,” Mr Busi concludes.
