Explore this type of textile field on a straight stitch industrial sewing machine! They are heavier than typical household machines, and can work very quickly in light and medium weight fabrics and some heavier materials. Whether you want to learn new skills or refresh old ones, we will help you gain confidence in the machine and start learning to develop your own products. We will re-check the safety and basic use of the machine, load and replace the thread and needle, manage the thread tension for the best results and material selection, and then practice a few stitches to get the feel of the machine.
When you sit down to start or continue sewing projects, you don't need mechanical problems. Many times, when you perform preventive maintenance on the sewing machine, mechanical problems can be avoided. Let me show you some of the skills I learned in sewing machine maintenance! Keep the bobbin area clean. This is a very simple way to avoid possible problems with lint accumulation and gear dirt. Just lift the machine and place it on the rest. Check the bobbin area for lint and thread trimming. Be sure to wipe the bobbin tray and remove any debris that has collected over time.
Finally, a thorough work must be done, and the bobbin case must be taken out and cleaned up. You will be surprised how much lint can be collected in such a small place. Pick up your lint brush to clean the bobbin mechanism and surrounding area. Do not wipe off any grease (because this is required for proper operation). Just concentrate on removing lint, dust and any fabric or thread scraps. This is a good way to practice industrial sewing machine maintenance.
