5504 - Four needle, double chainstitch flatbed machine. This machine is designed for straight stitching of waistbands
on garments such as jeans and workwears. It is equipped with a puller for smooth operations on thick fabrics, even
when crossing seams.

3. Lockstitch-Lockstitch is the familiar stitch performed by most household sewing machines and most
industrial "single needle" sewing machines from two threads, one passed through a needle and one coming
from a bobbinor shuttle. Each thread stays on the same side of the material being sewn, interlacing with the
other thread at each needle hole by means of a bobbindriver. As a result, a lockstitch can be formed anywhere
on the material being sewn; it does not need to be near an edge.
Overlock-Overlock, also known as "serging" or "serger stitch", can be formed with one to four threads, one or
two needles, and one or two loopers. Overlock sewing machines are usually equipped with knives that trim or
create the edge immediately in front of the stitch formation. Household and industrial overlock machines are
commonly used for garment seams in knit or stretchy fabrics, for garment seams where the fabric is light
enough that the seam does not need to be pressed open, and for protecting edges against raveling. Machines
using two to four threads are most common, and frequently one machine can be configured for several varieties
of overlock stitch. Overlock machines with five or more threads usually make botha chainstitch with one
needle and one looper, and an overlock stitch with the remaining needles and loopers. This combination is
known as a "safety stitch". A similar machine used for stretch fabrics is called a mock safety.

4. Cover stitch-Coverstitch is formed by two or more needles and one or two loopers. Like lockstitch and
chainstitch, coverstitch can be formed anywhere on the material being sewn. One looper manipulates a thread
below the material being sewn, forming a bottom cover stitch against the needle threads. An additional looper
above the material can form a top cover stitch simultaneously. The needle threads form parallel rows, while the
looper threads cross backand forth all the needle rows. Coverstitch is so-called because the grid of crossing
needle and looper threads covers raw seam edges, much as the overlock stitch does. It is widely used in
garment construction, particularly for attaching trims and flat seaming where the raw edges can be finished in
the same operation as forming the seam
Zigzag stitch-A zigzag stitch is variant geometry of the lockstitch. It is a back-and-forth stitch used where a
straight stitch will not suffice, such as in preventing raveling of a fabric, in stitching stretchable fabrics, and in
temporarily joining two work pieces edge-to-edge.
When creating a zigzag stitch, the back-and-forth motion of the sewing machine's needle is controlled by
a cam. As the cam rotates, a fingerlike follower, connected to the needle bar, rides along the cam and tracks its
indentations. As the follower moves in and out, the needle bar is moved from side to side.[21]
Very old sewing

5. machines lack this hardware and so cannot natively producea zigzag stitch, but there are often shank-driven
attachments available which enable them to do so.
