Abstract
A system and method for forming synthetic/artificial grass or turf tufted fabric materials in which a series of tufts or artificial/synthetic grass or turf yarns is formed in a backing material. The system generally will include a row of needles mounted along a tufting zone and which are reciprocated through the backing material to deliver a series of yarns into the backing materials. The needles are arranged in needle groups with the needle groups spaced apart along the length of the needle bar. A series of gauge parts, typically including cut-pile hooks, will be aligned with and will engage the needles in order to form cut and pile tufts defining spaced grass/turf tuft formations in the backing material.
