Abstract

In this study, the sewing feeding force and its regularity which is an indicator to stitch length regularity were measured using a computer-based measuring systems under the real conditions of sewing process. This system is an indirect method based on measuring the electric power consumption due to fabric feeding. The effect of sewing machine setting in terms of speed, presser foot load and stitch density on the feeding force and its regularity from stitch to another were also studied. The effect of sewing parameters in terms of number of layers and sewing line direction were also studied. The effect of sewing machine setting on the distance of slippage between fabric layers and the relation between feeding force regularity and stitch length regularity were investigated.
