Control panel
Through the panel the machine runs the knitting program prepared on the PC with our software, free to download from this site.
Bentley machine
The Di Lupo system for the Bentley Cotton machine: control panel, air motors, electronic variable stroke, 5 kW inverter motor and air brake.
The Bentley is one of the most widespread Cotton machines, but it is not without flaws. It has many mechanical parts that wear over time: play builds up on the chains and shafts of the variable stroke, worm screws can slip and break needles, and the motor, brake and electrical system age, with components that are now hard to find.
To solve most of these problems after years of service, we offer a complete rebuild of the system:
The system
What our Bentley system includes
Valve block
Driven by the panel PLC, it operates most of the machine's functions through valves.
Electrical panel
New electrical panel with PLC and inverter, wired and tested in our workshop.
Air motors
Our own air motors drive the machine movements: carriage, punches and neckline.
Variable stroke
The old chain blocks are replaced by an electric motor that sets the variable stroke position needle by needle.
Motor
New 5 kW inverter-driven motor.
Air brake
The machine is slowed down by the inverter; the air brake holds it once the motor has stopped and is de-energised.
Other machines: Monk machine · Scheller machine · Boehringer machine
