    Knitting Needles

    Hi, I want to manufacture knitting needles that vary in diameter from 12mm, down to 2mm (length from 10cm to 30cm) – I intend to produce about 10,000 a year, so it would need to be as automated as possible.
    Any advice as to machinery ?

    You would need a cnc lathe, but Im not sure it would work very well with such a thin diameter.

    You probably need a swiss screw machine.
    On all equipment there are 2 levers...
    Lever "A", and Lever F'in "B"
