Textile machinery and accessories - Needle and sinker lubricating oils for knitting machines with independent needles - Part 2: Minimum requirements for oils based on synthetics
Textilmaschinen und Zubehör - Nadel- und Platinenschmieröle für Strickmaschinen - Teil 2: Mindestanforderungen an Öle auf synthetischer Basis
Overview
This document applies to needle and sinker lubricating oils based on synthetics which are mainly used for pressure and spray application of the needles and sinkers in knitting machines. Synthetic oils are compounds produced by chemical processes, for example esters, polyglycols, poly-alpha-olefins. The document harmonizes the different test procedures which were previously used in practice. Moreover, minimum requirements for the properties of oil are specified in order to determine whether needle and sinker lubricating oils are suitable. The committee responsible for this standard is NA 106-02-08 AA "Wirk- und Strickmaschinen; SpA zu ISO/TC 72/SC 3" ("Knitting machinery; Mirror committee to ISO/TC 72/SC 3") at DIN.
