How easy will the sewing machine be to operate?


Industrial machines are more specialized than home machines. Probably the biggest misconception is that industrials are for heavier work like little textile machine etc but this isn’t true.

Simplicity of use

The other difference and industrial machine bear home, is that you usually carry quotation including three things: first, motor and table. In the home sewing, this is just a head. Because it is more typical, if you quote a price, this is not so, the dealer or the seller will always mention if it's head, machine and the machine only only or no table including etc. In the daily affairs, you can assume that quotation including table, motor and machine. In fact, the dealer will often mention may upgrade to a better car.
There are three basic foot position. You use your toes tips from the edge of the pedal you recently, up the feet.

In short, machines with servo motors don’t have a knee or a hand lift for the presser foot. With automatic back stitching, you don’t lose one hand to operating a knob or lever. This is great because your hands are free to work the materials.

Explosion factor of any of these machines if you do something wrong is zero. Mr. F-I laughs at me but I have told him that women often rate equipment in terms of, if they do something wrong, will the machine explode? He thinks I’m kidding but you know better. It is pretty hard to mess these up. Speaking of, the worst that can go wrong is in threading.
All of this is very basic, if you scan the machines and equipment category on this site, you’ll find much more detail and information about machines.

In the next entry, I will explain the epiphany I had with respect to the main reason we don’t use pins. Pins prevent optimal handling and feeding of the fabric into an industrial machine. Before I told you that pinning was unnecessary due to foot pressure and also, that pins introduce inaccuracies where there were none.  

Until had to teach handling in this class I didn’t realize needing to mention that pins prevent optimal feeding of goods. As it happens, the best sewing results are attained by keeping layers as separate as much as is possible until just before they go under the needle. Pins obviously subvert that.
