According to our (Global Info Research) latest study, the global Large Single Jacquard Knitting Circular Machine market size was valued at US$ 448 million in 2025 and is forecast to a readjusted size of US$ 634 million by 2032 with a CAGR of 5.1% during review period.
In 2025, global sales of large-diameter single-jersey jacquard circular knitting machines reached 11,925 units, with an average price of $36,500 per unit.
Large single jacquard knitting circular machine is commonly known as computer jacquard circular machine. Computer jacquard circular machine greatly shortens the product design cycle, reduces the cost of circular machine products, greatly improves product quality, improves the economic and social benefits of enterprises, and improves the competitiveness and adaptability of enterprises.
The raw material system for these machines comprises four major categories: machined components, core knitting components, electronic control systems, and auxiliary devices. Due to the machine's massive dimensions, requirements for material strength and machining precision are exceptionally rigorous. Regarding machined components, the oversized needle cylinders (1–1.3 meters in diameter) and cam rings utilize high-strength alloy steel or Japanese-imported mold steels (such as S45CL, SKD11, and SCM440), undergoing precision CNC machining and heat treatment to ensure wear resistance and dimensional stability. The frame and base—which must support significant weight (the complete machine can weigh 3–5 tons)—are constructed from thickened cast iron or welded steel and feature steel-ball raceways and oil-bath lubrication systems to distribute loads and minimize noise. For core knitting components, the large cylinders accommodate thousands of needles; standard practice involves using German Groz-Beckert or Japanese high-speed steel needles and German Kern-Liebers (or equivalent quality) sinkers. Given the high needle count and rapid wear rates, the frequency and cost of replacing these consumables are significantly higher than for small-to-medium-sized machines. Electronic control systems include multiple electromagnetic needle selectors (corresponding to the thousands of needles), high-power servo drives, industrial-grade PLCs, large touchscreens, and pattern preparation software; Japanese WAC or German Stoll computerized needle selection systems are the industry standard, with software capable of processing pattern data for massive pattern repeats (spanning tens of thousands of needles). Auxiliary devices encompass high-capacity positive yarn feeders, multi-channel yarn guides, central yarn storage units, tension balancing systems, high-power lubrication systems, and fabric take-up mechanisms.
In terms of cost structure, the machine's massive specifications and complex architecture result in higher raw material costs and reduced economies of scale compared to small-to-medium-sized models. Raw material procurement and precision machining costs account for 50–60% of the total cost (higher than the 45–55% for small-to-medium machines). Key drivers include the consumption of special steel for extra-large cylinder and cam rings, the quantity of imported knitting needles/sinkers (thousands per machine), and the cost of structural components for reinforced machine frames. Electronic control systems and needle selection technology (including multiple needle selection units, high-power drive systems, and software R&D amortization) account for approximately 20–25%. Labor costs for assembly and commissioning account for about 12–18% (higher than for small-to-medium machines) due to stricter assembly precision requirements and longer commissioning cycles (necessitated by the need to verify the synchronization of thousands of needles). Manufacturing overheads (large-scale factory facilities, heavy-duty lifting equipment, and energy consumption) account for approximately 10–15%.
