Learning from the experts: Mayer & Cie. launches Know-how Panel

“I would like to ask someone who really knows …” – we all have this wish, whether it’s about an Ikea cabinet, the printer unwilling to work or about an unusual setting at a circular knitting machine. Most of the time, however, no expert is available at precisely such moments.

For this reason, Mayer & Cie. will be offering its experience in circular knitting on a regular basis for download, starting from November 2022. Customers, technicians and interested parties can thus benefit from the concentrated expertise. For other specific questions, the Mayer & Cie. team will continue to provide direct advice and assistance.



The first topic with which the series will deal is “Knitting in fine gauges”. The circular knitting machine manufacturer complements the series at regular intervals. All know-how panels are available here:

Please note that registration is mandatory for downloading a know-how panel.
