Abstract

Automated machinery design for garment manufacturing is essential for improving productivity, consistency, and quality. This paper focuses on the development of new pulling gear for automated pant bottom hem sewing machines. Traditionally, these machines require manual intervention to guide the bottom hem sewing process, which often leads to inconsistent stitch quality and alignment. While twin-needle sewing machines can create twin lines for the bottom hem, they typically lack sufficient pulling force to adequately handle the fabric of the pants' bottom hem. The innovative design of the pulling gear aims to address this issue by providing the necessary pulling force for the bottom hem of eyelet pants. The research and design discussed in this article seek to solve technical challenges, eliminate the need for skilled manual operators, and enhance overall productivity. This improvement ensures smooth and precise feeding of fabric pieces in the automated twin needle sewing machine, ultimately improving the consistency and quality of the stitching. By integrating this innovation, garment manufacturers can boost productivity, reduce reliance on manual skilful labour, and optimize the output of the production process, thereby reaping the benefits of automation in the garment manufacturing industry.
