  • the mechanism of Sewing Damage in knitted fabrics
    1998
    Co-Authors: George K Stylios, R Zhu
    Abstract:

    An investigation is reported in which penetration of the Sewing needle in fabric was recorded by using a high-speed video technique. Photographs show that the Sewing needle penetrates the fabric structure at different positions during Sewing. On the basis of a simplified knitted structure, the mechanism of Sewing Damage is analysed. This analysis establishes that Sewing Damage in a knitted fabric is affected by the yarn structure and properties, fabric construction, and Sewing conditions. During needle penetration in the Sewing of garments, the fabric will be liable to Damage by a number of factors or a combination of them, namely, an increase in the yarn modulus, coefficient of friction (yarn to yarn and yarn to needle), needle size, and yarn-tension or yarn-compression modulus. Sewing Damage will he reduced with an increase in the size of the throat-plate hole and/or the loop size of the fabric structure. The effects of needle points, yarn twist, and yarn tension are also analysed in cases in which the ...

  • A New Concept in Garment Manufacture: “THE SEWABILITY INTEGRATED ENVIRONMENT” INCORPORATING AUTOMATED OBJECTIVE MEASUREMENT SYSTEMS
    1992
    Co-Authors: George K Stylios, Jintu Fan, J.o. Sotomi, R. Deacon
    Abstract:

    Introduces a new concept which has been developed to combat the problems of sewability, named “the Sewability Integrated Environment”. It aims at knitted as well as woven materials and incorporates automated objective measurement systems to achieve automatic prediction of seam pucker, and Sewing Damage, on‐line optimum Sewing conditions and the necessary amount of fabric property correction in fabric Finishing. Describes and discusses these systems and puts forward arguments and new ideas for future research in advance garment manufacture.

  • the study of Sewing Damage and defects in garments
    2018
    Co-Authors: A K Choudhary, Monica Puri Sikka, Payal Bansal
    Abstract:

    The purpose of this review paper is to define the dominating factors (such as fiber, yarn, fabric structure, Sewing thread, Sewing needle and machine parameters) that affect the seam Damages and causing defects. It also describes the various explanations of Sewing defects in garment production and critically analyzes them for optimum selection of parameters and speeds for minimizing such faults. Hence, the knowledge of various factors which affect the Sewing Damages/defects will be helpful for garment manufacturers/researchers to know influence of the parameters and control the quality of producing seam.,This section is not applicable for a review paper.,Sewing Damages such as needle cut and other Sewing Damages/defects are studied mostly in woven fabric. There are very few studies conducted on knitted fabric Sewing Damages/defects. The Sewing Damage problems do not have single solution that is capable of removing these Damages in fabric. All the determined and affecting parameters related to fiber, yarn, fabric construction, Sewing thread and Sewing machine must be examined to design appropriate remedial measurement related to machine design, fabric parameters and Sewing thread. This could help in minimizing or eliminating the needle cut and other Sewing Damage problems.,It is an original review work and is helpful for garment manufacturers/researchers to reduce the defects and be able to produce good quality seam.

  • the effect of throat plate design on Sewing Damage on an overlock Sewing machine
    1997
    Co-Authors: Jintu Fan
    Abstract:

    Sewing Damage is caused by the resistance of fabric to the penetration of Sewing needle during Sewing. Such resistance not only comes from the fact that the spaces in the fabric (between the fibres or the yams) are relatively small to the size of the Sewing needle, but also comes from the congestion in the needle gap as a result of the fabric materials (viz. fibres and yarns) being pushed into the needle gap (i.e. the gap or hole in the throat plate of the Sewing machine, through which the needle passes when penetrating the fabric) during Sewing. Therefore, the size and design of the needle gap is very important to the elimination of Sewing Damage. In the work reported on in this paper, throat plates of different needle gap sizes were designed and the effect of needle gap on Sewing Damage was investigated. It was found that needle plate having optimum needle gap size can minimise Sewing problems.
