Comparison between Standards for Seam‐woven Fabric Properties Determination
A.M. Manich, J.P. Domingues, R.M. SauriUsing six fabrics which are very different in structure and composition, comparisons have been made between British, French and American standards, and between IWS and Renault…
Automated Fabric Inspection
S. Convery, T. Lunney, A. Hashim, M. McGinnityPresents an overview of automated fabric flaw detection immediately after the knitting process. Considers the classification of fabric flaws and how image processing techniques…
High Quality Fabrics for Garments
Sueo Kawabata, Masako NiwaExplains the origins of the development of the handle method, and lists the three criteria for predicting fabric quality. Shows how fabric handle evaluation is used, for example…
A Study of Thread Tensions on a Lockstitch Sewing Machine (Part II)
F.B.N. Ferreira, S.C. Harlock, P. GrosbergA study of thread tensions on a lockstitch sewing machine was made, measuring simultaneously both the needle and bobbin thread tensions. Investigates the relationship between the…
Automated Apparel Processing: Computer Simulation of Fabric Deformation for the Design of Equipment
S.D. McWaters, T.G. Clapp, J.W. EischenIntroduces and evaluates a finite‐element computer model which predicts the bending behaviour of fabric in contact with a surface, in order to optimize the design of equipment…
A Study of Thread Tensions on a Lockstitch Sewing Machine (Part III): Further Stitch Formation Analysis
F.B.N. Ferreira, S.C. Harlock, P. GrosbergThe purpose of this investigation was to try to develop a theoretical model to satisfy and explain the interaction between the needle and bobbin threads, the tensions developed…
