“…The failure of the seam makes a trouser unsuitable even though the fabric may be in a good condition [15]. Previous studies showed that seam appearance and performance depend on the interrelationship of fabrics, threads, stitch types and sewing conditions [16,17,18] According to the newly development processes in clothing industry, particularly in denim garment, the seam performance of denim is important. In the sewing process, a fabric with high density, thickness and weight such as denim fabric is more phone to seam and stitch damages [19].…”

Denim trouser is the most preferred garment in the clothing industry. The seam performance of the stitches of denim trouser is very important for the quality of the product. Seam perfromance of garment depend on fabric structural properties such as weave type, fabric thickness, weight, yarn density and stitch types. Seam strength and seam efficiency are two important parameters for seam performance. The purpose of this study is to determine the seam performance of the chain stitch and lockstitch used in denim trouser. For this reason, fabric strength, seam strength and seam efficiency of cotton denim woven fabrics with elastane and without elastane which are widely used in garment have been examined.

“…Besides heavyweight fabric had the highest formability, shear rigidity but the lowest in bending rigidity. (Vildan et al, 2013) studied on how fabric structure, weft setting and type of sewing thread impact on seam strength, seam elongation, seam efficiency, seam slippage, and seam pucker of cotton and polyester fabrics (plain and 3/1 twill) of different weight ranging between 105 and 190 gm/m 2 . The superimposed seam was prepared by using core-spun polyester thread of 45 Tex and mercerized cotton sewing thread of 41 Tex.…”

Seam performance ensures the durability, attractiveness, strength etc. of the sewn garments. Fabric types, fabric densities, fabric strength, seam types, sewing thread count, thread strength, stitch densities and stitch types influence the performance of a sewn seam. This paper investigates the performance of sewn seam of various structure of woven fabric. The variables of this research are stitch densities (SPI), sewing thread count, seam types and woven structures. We conduct our research over plain, twill 2/1, twill 2/2, oxford and poplin woven structure. Firstly, we apply lockstitch (301) to produce superimposed, lapped and bound seam on the woven sample by using thread count 27 Tex, 30 Tex, 20/2 Tex, 40 Tex, 40/2 Tex, 40/3 Tex having stitch densities (SPI) 8, 10 and 12. Then according to ASTM D1683 standard, we measured the tensile strength test and recorded the seam breaking strength (N). We apply error bars over each diagram to investigate the standard deviation. Finally, we discuss four hypothesis to conclude our research work. We found higher seam breaking strength with the increase of thread count and SPI. The bound seam samples has shown superior seam breaking strength than superimposed and lapped seam; poplin structure surpassed to others. The seam efficiency of the samples varies from 60–90% and do not exceeds 100%. Finally, we found some significant alternatives hypothesis of the population since F values exceeded F critical values for the sewn seam.

“…The raw material used in this experiment will be the 100% cotton twill and will be tested on three different fabric orientations, considering straight yarn, thread through and bias. Sülar et al (2014) indicate that there are few work done in this area. They performed a study whose purpose was to analyze the performance of seams in flat fabrics.…”

The textile manufacturing industry is quite traditional and therefore maintains a certain level of production based on empiricism. Research on textile materials and production processes has been gaining strength mainly motivated by professional sport. However, with regard to the most common processes, there are few studies that serve to demystify some information that is transferred over time. The present work performs a resistance analysis of the seams applied in flat fabrics commonly used in the making of uniform trousers. The purpose is to identify whether the Double Chain Stitch Sewing Machine is stronger than that of the Interlock Sewing Machine with rebound stitch in the Twin Needle Lockstitch Sewing Machines. For this purpose, tensile tests were carried out, where the sample tested was the twill, 3x1 frame with 100% cotton composition tested in the different directions of the fabric (weft, warp and bias). The results show that the Interlock Sewing Machine is stronger than Double Chain Stitch Sewing Machine. The results indicate that the strongest seam is necessarily the one that uses the least needles and this goes against the information that the manufacturers thought as well as spending less resources to perform.
