PURPOSE: To provide a machine for control and boarding of stockings and tights, comprising a rotating circular transfer type base, on which cyclic boarding steps, e.g. work inspection, setting works on forms, steam-treatment and drying by hot air, are implemented automatically, to produce uniform stocking and tights.
CONSTITUTION: This machine for control and boarding of stockings and tights comprises a rotating circular transfer type base 1 on which a plurality of forms 2 are placed, wherein the works are positioned on a load support by a loading station 3, optically inspected by an internal display, moved vertically downward for a short travel, then upward on an inclined path for a longer travel and finally vertically downward also for a longer travel to be transferred from the support to the forms 2, and moved downward on an inclined path for a short travel. Each work is tightly set on each form 2 by a second station 5, passed through a size-adjusting station 5, tension station 6, and fifth station 7 where it is steam-treated in an autoclave. It is then passed through a sixth station 8 where it is dried in a hot air kiln, relaxation station 9 where it is relaxed, and eighth station 10 where it is unloaded.
