Flexibility, quality, and efficiency are the most important factors in selecting a high-performance flat knitting
machine. Stoll goes a step further and brings innovation with the new ADF generation.
ADF means “Autarkic Direct Feed”, and it gives you complete freedom in design and production. The yarn
carriers are independent of the carriage and can move on both horizontally and vertically. Thanks to this
innovative yarn carrier technology, this machine creates – together with a variety of knitting techniques –
almost endless possibilities for pattern and color combinations.
The ADF generation combines these innovations with all the advantages of
different machine generations and yarn carrier techniques into one unique,
high-performance, high-quality, efficient, flat knitting machine.
Now with new machine models the ADF generation expands the pattern
possibilities. Discover the additional benefits for your production.

Stoll-ikat plating®
The aesthetic output of Stoll-ikat-plating® can be
best compared to ikat patterns where space-dyed
weft yarns form a horizontally blurred pattern.
The graphics on ikat textiles traditionally reflect a
certain randomness and less accurate forms and
shapes. Colours seem to fade into each other. A
similar effect can be achieved in knitting fabrics
with Stoll-ikat-plating® on Stoll ADF machines. As
with any other knitting technique, Stoll-ikat-plating® impacts the design and development of knitted fabrics. This technique increases the repertoire
of printed effects and enables designers to draw
their own artwork. To create respective graphics,
designers must consider technical specifications –
like the numbers of pixels per colour, and the sequence of colours – which can be provided by any
knitting technician prior to the creation process.
The artwork can be created with common graphics
software and handed over to knitting technicians
for further processing.
Pattern No. 1410160

CMS ADF
Advantage:
Flexibility
Endless flexibility. With the ADF generation, creativity is limitless. The innovative yarn carrier technology of the ADF is primarily responsible for this. Its
yarn carriers can be moved freely, both horizontally
and vertically, because they are powered by two
motors that work completely independently of each
other. This technology gives knitting an entirely new
dimension. First and foremost, plating techniques
have been significantly advanced. Numerous options for Inverse Plating make it possible to choose
from an almost unlimited spectrum of color combinations. For Intarsia Plating and Selective Plating, color composition can vary between single and
multiple areas. With the new Stoll-ikat plating® Inverse
Plating is knitted in one system: two more yarns knit
together in an area and change their positions in the
same system. Applying the new Stoll-weave-in® technique floats can be interlaced into knits in a weft direction. The outcome is a loom-like knit with loomlike properties. All techniques can be combined with
each other.* With the ADF, color fields with a size of 0.5
inches can also be implemented, whereby several yarn
carriers move within the same system.
* Stoll-weave-in® can only be knitted on the CMS ADF 32 W, CMS ADF 32 BW,
CMS ADF 16 W and CMS ADF 16 BW models.
Advantage:
Efficiency
Fast
and
reliable
the
ADF
generation
is
distinguished
by
its great efficiency. The knitting
sequences have been noticeably
optimized and the knitting time
has decreased, due to the reduced
number of carriage strokes and the
independence of the yarn carriers
from the carriage. The equipping
time has also been reduced with
faster and easier threading, especially
for intarsia items, which leads to
savings of both time and money. The
ADF boosts efficiency and allows for
reduced costs in each clothing item
created.
CMS ADF
Advantage:
Diversity
The ADF is the epitome of diversity. Being used to
the proven ADF technology, enabling unimagined
pattern and color variations, now Stoll presents
new ADF models, adapted to your exact production
requirements.
Additionally to the CMS ADF 32 models with 32 yarn
carriers and sixteen yarn carrier tracks with two
yarn carriers each, Stoll now also introduces a light
version: The CMS ADF 16 models with sixteen yarn
carriers having exactly the same functionalities.
Every ADF model unites all knitting techniques from
previous Stoll machine types - Stoll-multi gauges®,
Stoll-flexible gauges®, Intarsia, Stoll-devoré®, Plush,
etc. -along with new knitting techniques:
The CMS ADF 32 and CMS ADF 16 for all basic ADF
knitting applications, with Stoll-multiflex® fabric
take-down.
The CMS ADF 32 B and CMS ADF 16 B with Belt
fabric take-down can be applied mainly for knits
with deep Gores (local knitting), products with
large width variation or some products with strong
elastic properties such like braces.
The CMS ADF 32 W and CMS ADF 16 W with a
Weave-in device, enable woven knits to be knitted
with loom-like optic and loom-like properties: Stollweave-in®.
The CMS ADF 32 BW and CMS ADF 16 BW with Belt
fabric take-down and Weave-in device combining
Belt take-down and Stoll-weave-in® knitting
products.

New views
Ergonomic considerations played a large role
in the development of the Stoll CMS ADF. Now
even the back of the machine has come into its
own. The sliding bobbin creel enables an easy
and fast access to the interior rear side of the
needle bed. The bobbin carrier attached at body
height is ideal for easy replacement of outgoing
yarns.

CMS ADF
Yarn carriers
The yarn carriers move independently of the carriage, and are
set program-controlled in their
horizontal and vertical position.
This allows for the realization of
even more knitting techniques
like Inverse Plating, Intarsia Plating, Selective Plating, Stoll-ikat
®,
One yarn carrier for everything
A single yarn carrier is used for
all knitting techniques. Intarsia,
Plating or Inlay technique can
now be produced in one fabric
without exchanging of the yarn
carriers.
V-shaped arranged yarn
control unit*
The V-shaped arranged yarn
control unit supports a crossfree, direct yarn feeding.
Yarn carrier setting
Easier, quicker, more user-friendly
– The yarn carriers are set horizontally and vertically via the
pattern setup. These settings can
be transferred to other machines
with the pattern program.
Lint container
The filling level of the lint container can easily be controlled
through an inspection window
at the carriage.
Simplified threading
The yarn carriers can be threaded directly from the top to any
position with the thread up aid,
which is part of the delivery.
*Image refers to CMS ADF 32 models
®
plating Stoll-weave-in etc. Servo motors and servo amplifiers
which are highly energy-efficient,
are used for the yarn carriers. It
has been recognized as trend setting by the sustainability initiative
Blue Competence of VDMA.
Open carriage
The open carriage enables a
direct yarn feed with low yarn
tensions.
CMS ADF
Work illumination
The work illumination is highly
energy-efficient and environmentfriendly thanks to energy-saving
technology, and controlled duty
cycle. It has been recognized by
the sustainability initiative Blue
Competence of VDMA as trendsetting.
Fabric take-down system
Up to 20% of energy can be saved
using servo motors with servo
amplifiers. The fabric take-down
has been recognized by the sustainability initiative Blue Competence of VDMA as trend-setting.
16 tracks I 8 tracks
The total of 16 tracks with 2
yarn carriers respectively on all
CMS ADF 32 models allows significantly easier programming of
sophisticated patterns (for example intarsia patterns with many
yarn carriers). For programs with
less yarn carriers, the CMS ADF
16 models are the right solution
with a total of 8 tracks and 2 yarn
carriers each. The corresponding
numbering of the rails makes it
easier to thread.
The light curtain
Guarantees a maximum degree
of safety at work: In case of interruption of the light barrier, for
example when intervening, the
carriage and the yarn carriers will
stop automatically.
2 yarn carriers on 1 track
The minimum distance between
2 yarn carriers on the same track
has been reduced to 2 inches.
Belt take-down system
Available for following machines:
CMS ADF 32 B I CMS ADF 32 BW

Weave-in device
The weave-in device enables
knitting without take-down and
