The Influence of the Properties of Embroidery Threads on Buckling of Fabric Inside of the Embroidered Element

Abstract

In production of garments, embroidery carries out a variety of functions, one of which is the aesthetic appearance of the product improvement. The resulting defects, are seen as a negative indicator of the product quality. The discrepancy of the embroidered element to the digital design in size is a defect, which is influenced by the embroidery threads, embroidery materials properties and process parameters. The fabric sorrounded by the embroidery threads between adjancent needle penetrations inside of the embroidered element is compressed, buckling. The aim of this paper is to investigate the influence of the properties of embroidery threads on buckling of fabric inside of the embroidered element. For investigations specimens were prepared using different fibre composition, density and linear structure of the embroidery threads. Specimens were cut and photo-captured at the beginning, middle and end of the embroidered element. It was found, that different properties of the embroidery threads affecting on the different behavior of fabric inside of the embroidered element. The results of the investigations showed that the fabric inside of the embroidered element formed larger waves of buckling using the maximum elongation of the feedback exhibiting embroidery thread.<p>DOI: <a href="http://dx.doi.org/10.5755/j01.ms.18.4.3100">http://dx.doi.org/10.5755/j01.ms.18.4.3100</a></p

Investigation of the Influence of Technology Parameters and Thread Type on Embroidered Textile Element Quality

“…In this case, there is more space for the formation of the wave inside of embroidery when the CF has been locked between the two adjacent needle penetration points. These fi xed waves due to fabric buckling have been locked inside embroidery infl uence the changes in the geometry parameters of embroidered element [7,8]. Tatami fi lling decreased the material shrinkage due to embroidery up to minimum expected values compared with the one of Satin fi lling.…”

“…They were used for the threading of machine needles and shuttle. The appearance and quality of the embroidery applying different types of embroidery threads also may vary due to the differences among their thickness, construction, fi ber composition, and application area [7,10,11]. On the basis of the determined optimal technological parameters, the infl uence of thread type on the embroidery quality was investigated using SL2, SL3, and SL4 threads for the needle threading (Table 1) and SL1 threads-for the shuttle threading in all cases.…”

“…There are several objective evaluation methods for the examination of the conformity of shape and dimensions of embroidered elements to the designed digital ones. These methods are based on the measurements of the geometrical parameters of circle [7,8] or rectangle [9]. In both cases, the designed element is fully fi lled by embroidery threads.…”

Evaluation of stitch length accuracy of embroidery machine by different speed and step

“…There are many publications dedicated to the influence of technological and design parameters on the embroidery quality [1][2][3][4][5][6][7]. In [1] a case study on the defects in industrial manufacturing of embroidered textiles is done.…”

“…It is observed that when the stitch direction goes towards the middle of the embroidered element, the considerable stitch concentration in the centre is occurred. The effect of ordinary embroidery threads on buckling of fabric inside of the embroidered element is discussed in [5] and the buckling by materials with different physical properties inside embroidered elements in [6]. The results showed that fabric structure indicators such as linear filling and linear porosity influence the formation of the height and shape of the buckling waves inside the embroidered element.…”
