This document describes a double needle lockstitch (DNLS) machine. It begins by explaining the basic principles of a lockstitch and the components involved. It then discusses the two main types of lockstitch machines: single needle and double needle. The bulk of the document focuses on describing the specific features and applications of the Juki LH-3120-7 double needle lockstitch machine, including its specifications, advantages, additional features like corner teaching, and applications for sewing various garments.
The document describes an overlock machine, which is a specialized sewing machine used to finish fabric edges and seams. It can produce stitches at speeds up to 5000 stitches per minute. The overlock machine makes stitches using 1-5 threads depending on the number of needles and loopers. Common stitch types include 3-thread, 4-thread, and 5-thread overlocks. Key features of the overlock machine include its differential feed system and ability to stretch stitching up to 300%. Problems with thread chains are addressed through the use of a backlatcher or chain cutting device.
Folders are work aids used in sewing machines to improve productivity, quality, and reduce operator fatigue. Common types include guides, presser feet, and stitching jigs. Folders are mostly separate devices attached to machines that enable precise folding of fabrics prior to sewing. Specific folders are used for tasks like shoulder and yoke joining, pocket hemming, cuff hemming, pleating, side seam closing, sleeve placket joining, belt loops, inseams, zippers, bottom leg hemming, and riser seams. Folders for different garment components and sewing operations help standardize quality and increase efficiency.
This document provides information about overlock machines, including their definition, uses, anatomy, selection criteria, and working mechanism. An overlock machine is a specialized sewing machine that produces overlock stitches to sew over one or two pieces of cloth. It is commonly used for edging, hemming, and seaming fabrics. The machine uses loopers rather than a bobbin to create thread loops that contain the fabric edges within the seam. Key factors for selecting an overlock machine include threading ease, tension control, presser foot design, and stitch width adjustment. The machine creates overlock stitches through the coordinated movements of the needle, upper looper, and lower looper.

The document discusses different types of stitches and their classification. It describes six main stitch classes (100-600) based on the method of stitch formation and intended use. Class 100 includes chain stitches used for temporary basting. Class 200 comprises hand-formed stitches. Class 300 is the lock stitch formed using an upper and lower thread. Class 400 involves multi-thread chain stitches. Class 500 covers overedge and serging stitches. Class 600 is the cover stitch used primarily for knits. Each class is explained in terms of thread count, properties, stitch diagrams and typical applications.
Sewing is a key step in garment manufacturing where garment components are joined together using a needle and thread. There are several types of industrial sewing machines used including plain sewing machines, overlock sewing machines, flatlock sewing machines, buttonhole sewing machines, and button attaching sewing machines. Each machine type has specific functions like sleeve joining, hemming, or attaching buttons. Proper sewing requires understanding the different stitch formations like lockstitch and chainstitch as well as machine specifications.
Flat lock machines are specialized, high-speed machines that use two or more needle threads to form stitches by passing through fabric and interlocking on the top and bottom sides. They have multiple needles, loopers, and spreaders and can sew at speeds up to 6000 SPM. Flat lock machines are mainly used for sewing knitted garments but can also be used for woven fabrics. They require numerous thread types and adjustments to operate properly.

The basic functions of a needle
Needle Parts
Needle Selection
Types of needle
Needle Size / Thickness
Various effects of wrong sewing needle selection in apparel industry has mentioned in the below:
1. When the needle is finer than sewing thread
2. When the thread is finer than needle
3. When the needle is coarser than required fabric
4. When the needle is finer than required fabric
Needle Parts:
1. Butt
The starting part of bottom edge of needle. Helps for easily attaching of needle with the needle bar or clamp
2. Shank
The bottom thicker part of the needle which is tied in the needle clamp or the needle set screw. It may be cylindrical or flat in size. It supports the needle as a whole by providing additional strength
3. Shoulder
The intermediate section between the shank and the blade of needle. When the needle penetrate through the fabric to reach its lower position, then the shoulder also penetrates through the fabric. As a result it reduces the friction between needle & fabrics by producing a wider hole on fabric.
4. Blade
The needle portion extends from the shank to the eye. This is subjected to the greatest amount of friction and hence heat when it passes through the material. Blade is gradually tapered to tip
5. Long groove(s)
It is a long and thin groove, presents in one side of the needle blade . During up and down of needle through sewing, the sewing thread take place in this groove and reduce the frictions between fabric, needle and thread. It provides a protective channel and reduce possibility of damaging thread due to frictions.
6. Short groove
It is formed on the other side of long groove, towards the shuttle, hook, or looper and it assists in throwing the loop of needle thread
7. Eye
The eye of the needle is present in the bottom end of the blade. Needle thread allowed through this eye is taken to the bottom area. It helps to create loop
8. Scarf (Clearance)
It is a curved slot, a clearance cut in the needle blade just above the eye to permit a closer setting of the shuttle, hook, or looper to the needle. As a result, it is easy to catch the needle loop by the looper hook.
9. Point
It is the part from needle eye to the tip. The point of the needle is shaped to provide the most suitable penetration of the material being sewn according to its nature and the desired stitch effect
10. Tip
The ending edge pf needle is called tip. It helps to penetrate the needle into the fabric and create hole during sewing.
