Automatic winding bobbing

For winding the bobbin, each typewriter provides a special device. Sewing machines with a horizontal shuttle, the bobbin is inserted into the bobbin cap. In machines having a vertical shuttle, the bobbin is inserted from above, directly in the shuttle stroke. The thread of the bobbin is refilled under the spring plate of the shuttle or a bobbing cap in any case. Such a "trifle" like winding the thread on the bobbin often creates a lot of inconvenience when sewing. Actually, any, even a beginner seamstress, knows the hump on the bobbin, especially since there is a visual instruction and this operation itself is very elementary.


The weight of the sewing machine consists of materials from which it is made. If old high production models, the body of which is made of metal, their weight will be much larger than the weight of modern computerized and simple household machines, which is used as a material of the plastic.

Types of loops:

Standard linen loop can be performed on all electromechanical sewing machines, exceptions are the most primitive models. However, electromechanical sewing machines cannot perform other types of loops.

The direct rubber linen loop is performed in semi-automatic mode without turning the fabric into four receptions. To perform the loop, you need to carry out four shifts: when leaving the left side of the loop, long-lasting, the right side and when extracting the neighboring lines. Depending on the size of the button, most electromechanical sewing machines can perform a loop automatically. To carry out this operation, you should put a button in the petole meter of the foot to set the density and width of the loop, all other operations machine will automatically.

The hinge automatically depends entirely on the quality of the sewing machine, and the hinge performs in semi-automatic mode - from user skills. Computerized sewing machines swell loops in automatic mode, and most of the models can pull down the loops in the size of the buttons. And in the most expensive sewing machine models, you can even set the desired loops. Computerized sewing machines swell loops in automatic mode, and most of the models can pull down the loops in the size of the buttons. And in the most expensive sewing machine models, you can even set the desired dimensions.

Types of sewing lines:

Working lines:

In addition to the traditional straight line and zigzag, it is customary to attract hinges, overclocking lines, lines for the invisible line of product niza, lines for processing and stitching elastic fabrics, stitching for sanding, as well as various other lines.

Decorative lines:

Computerized sewing machines perform various decorative lines, among which: openwork lines, measurements, lines with a cross, lines performed by smooth blasting, festened chambers and various ornaments. The complex model of the sewing machine may contain several alphabets in memory, with some models boast the presence of not only the Latin alphabet, but also Cyrillic, and even there are hieroglyphs.
Modification of any line of a computerized sewing machine occurs by changing the width and stitch length. Some models are distinguished by the functions of a mirror image vertically or horizontally, and can also rotate lines.
Computerized sewing machines have built-in memory, which can be added to certain combinations of letters or a sequence of different interesting elements, with which you can embroider a beautiful border.

Year of the model:

The year in which the manufacturer's engineers developed this model for serial assembly. In more conservative models, which were produced from 1990 to 2000, there are ambiguous decisions of designers, such as pushers and revisors when choosing an operation on elastic bands, which does not allow to switch between operations. This displays the switching mechanism of operations. Outdated engines are used, which can overheat, and as a result, melting body parts. Slow sewing speed. Due to the high weight, there is practically no possibility of transportation, bulky sizes.

The technique from the new model range after 2010 is deprived of such difficulties, as the production uses the latest technologies - stepper motors, lightweight heat-resistant alloys in the manufacture of parts, the use of electronics, which allows the technique to be as functional and in demand. The reluctal characteristics in the newest models are higher than in a conservative.

Number of loops performed:

Computerized sewing machines can perform up to ten types of loops, such as loops with rounded edges, knitwear loops, costume loop with eye and others. The traditional linen loop also enters their quantity. The machine allows you to make a loop yourself, then put it in the memory of the sewing machine to quickly and gently perform a few more identical loops for a particular product.

Number of operations:

Depending on the sewing machine model, the number of operations may be different. For example, earlier models have the ability to exercise no more than 10 operations, and modern computerized sewing machines can perform up to several hundred operations.


With the help of additional loopers in Overlock, the threads are interlaced. From what loopers are equipped with overlock, and the ability to perform one or another number of lines. Most of the overlock has the upper and lower looper, so that with their help you can perform a large number of renovation seams, for example: 4-tie revolving, 3-thread, narrow, 3-thread wide, 3-thread FlatLock narrow, 3-thread FlatLock wide, wide , 3-thread role-playing earnings, 3-thread kaima, etc.

Line on the housing:

On the sleeve of some sewing machines a ruler is applied. It is extremely convenient for the markup of the product and measure the distances. Using a ruler on the housing, it is convenient to leave points on sewing and open, as it is always visible to which part of the product will be processed. Sometimes a ruler perform phosphorescent paint so that it can be seen with poor lighting. When buying an overlock, make sure that the ruler is applied to good paint and will not erase when sewing.

Maximum lifting height of the foot:

Maximum stitch length:

With this parameter, it is easy to determine which tombstone can be processed on this sewing machine. In order for the sewing machine to make passes during sewing, it is necessary to supply a sufficient amount of threads, it usually concerns dense materials. Stitch length of the best samples of sewing machines - from 5 to 6 millimeters, and inexpensive sewing machines boast a stitch length only up to 4 millimeters.

Maximum sewing speed:

The sewing machine speed is considered by the number of stitches performed per minute. Based on this, the higher the sewing speed, the faster you can get a finished product. Naturally, in order for the sewing speed to be as high as possible, it is necessary to possess certain skills. As practice shows, the sewing speed also affects the type and power of the engine of a particular modification of the sewing machine. For example, electromechanical machines can produce speed up to 600 ppm, computerized sewing machines - up to 800 ppm, but it is when sewing using the pedal. But if you sew using the start / stop button, then the sewing speed will not exceed 600 st / min.

Maximum stitch width:

The expressiveness and width of the decorative line completely depends on the lines width. At best, the lines width will be around 6 millimeters, although household sewing machines boast a lines wide from 7 to 9 millimeters.

Lower conveyor:

Plays an important role in determining the possibility of sewing different in density and capricious fabrics. Thus, there is a dependence on the area of \u200b\u200bfitting the lower conveyor (toothed rail) to the tissue and the quality of sewing complex tissues (the larger the adjustment area is, the better the tissue processing) will be performed).

As a rule, a lower conveyor with 4 or 5 segments and 6 teeth on its frontal sides is used to process medium in the thickness of materials. If the number of segments and teeth will be less, it may be difficult when sewing thin tissues. But if the number of segments and teeth will be greater, it may increase the range of work with more complex types of firmware.

When working with the fabric you need to pay special attention to the sharpening and structure of the teeth:

Fitutions:

This is a convenient and practical device built into overlock and designed to quickly refuel the threads in the needle. The filamentaker is simply indispensable for SWEI, which cannot boast of perfect vision, and significantly accelerates work with a frequent change of threads, for example, of different colors. To quickly fill the thread into the needle, you need to skip the thread through the hook of the threader and release (or click, if it is provided for designs) a small lever. The thread will instantly push the needle's ear, and you will only have to remove the resulting loop.As you know, there are several basic types of threads: typical, automatic and missing.

Working surface lighting:

This feature is very convenient and practical, especially when working in a poorly lit room or in the dark. The following types of opening surface types are distinguished: additional special lighting, LED lighting, as well as illumination with an incandescent paw or double LED.

Incandescent lamp

It is an obsolete highlighting element and is distinguished by a slight service life, a sharp dependence of the life and luminous return on voltage, high power consumption and the fact that the color temperature lies within 2300 - 2900 K, which leads to a yellowish tone. Incandescent lamps are already prohibited in many countries due to the fact that there is a need for electricity saving, as well as to reduce carbon dioxide emissions into the atmosphere.

Diode backlight

This is the best option of lighting the working surface, which is provided in many models of modern sewing machines intended for home use. Diode backlight differs from other lighting devices with low power consumption, high color temperature and unlimited service life.

Double LED

An additional set of LEDs can be embedded in a sleeve of a sewing machine for a brighter lighting of the working surface. Most often, additional lighting is installed in the central part of the sleeve. This makes it possible to illuminate a much larger area than a single point LED.

Additional special lighting

As a rule, additional special lighting is used in expensive sewing machines, and can be connected via a USB port. This lighting can be directed to any place, and the lamp itself will be easy to fasten on any sewing machine site with a suction cup.

incandescent lamp

Needle positioning

The complex concept of "positioning", which characterizes one of the features of electronic sewing machines, is actually very simple.Usually the needle positioning button looks like this:

And it works as follows. If you hit it once, then the needle at the end of sewing will always stay at the top, i.e. will work the closer. In this case, you are very convenient to refer thread, or switch to another operation. Well, if you click again, the needle will stay downstairs (in fabric). It will be convenient for you to turn cloth to change the sewing direction.It should not think that this feature limits you into the possibility of scrolling the flywheel manually. If you need to manually go through some sophisticated area, it can always be done.

Seat field:

It usually happens two types: standard and enlarged. The size of the working surface in the sewing machine is installed using the departure of the sleeve. Thus, depending on the magnitude of the sleeve, it is possible to process the product of a certain length on the surface of the sewing machine, i.e. The more sleeve, the greater the area of \u200b\u200bthe material being processed on the working surface. There are so-called sewing machines with an increased working surface, in which more than 250 millimeters should be the distance between the needle and the bed. In addition, the working surface can be increased by an appropriate table. It is important to remember that the work surface should always be increased to the left of the needle. Those sewing machines that have in a set of anxiety table belong to machines with an enlarged work surface.

standard

Power consumption:

Some buyers of sewing machines, when choosing a model that could handle a very dense tissue and a fabric folded in several layers, the main parameter is considered the power of the sewing machine. However, this is an erroneous opinion. The fact is that the power of the sewing machine is a total parameter that is equal to the power consumed by the electronics unit and the lighting lamp. Therefore, if a strong load occurs, the engine begins to consume more current from the network. It is important to understand that all engines lose power. This parameter is not registered in the technical passport of the device, but it exists, and represents the difference between the electric and removed mechanical power consumed. In modern sewing machines, engines are installed, which consume less power, but due to more accurate indicators of consumed and lost power, the efficiency of their work will be much higher than that of outdated or budget engines. Usually, similar types of engines are used in computerized sewing machines, where they work together with stepper motors, significantly reducing energy consumption, without loss of power.

Adjusting the pressure of the paw on the fabric:

The mechanism that allows you to adjust the effort with which the paw presses on the fabric. Pressure in certain cases is required different: if thick fabric is processed, less power is needed to allow tissues to pass; If the cloth is durable and thin, then the pressure is greater. When working with knitting, the presence of such a mechanism is simply necessary. The fact is that knitwear is capable of deforming and stretching under the influence of the foot, and this should not be. The mechanism helps to create perfect pressure and does not allow knitwear to stretch. In the machines with a built-in conveyor fabric, this regulator can not be used. Today, you can meet models of machinery with different principle of action: switchable using a regulator by means of manual adjustment, with automatic switching by tissue type and with fixation of constant pressure.

Standard needles:

Even until recently, overlocks and sewing machines have been completed and sewn exclusively by branded needles that have their own standard and marking. Currently, all models presented on the market use universal needles for household overlocks and sewing machines. Modifications can be equipped with the needles of the standard 130 / 705h (standard) and ELX705 (with an increased ear size).

Removable sleeve platform:

"Sleep platform" or "Sleeve"- This is a narrow part of the sewing machine (overlock) which is designed for convenient work with narrow and round productssuch as cuffs, sleeves, neck and others. The usual platform becomes a sleeve when the user removes the compartment (box) for accessories (it is removed or shifted). The presence of this function, greatly facilitates the process of working in hard-to-reach places.

Machine type:

To date, there are many classifications of modern sewing machines, for example, according to the degree of automation, they are non-automatic action, fully automated and semi-automatic machines, which in turn are divided into cyclical and non-cycles; And according to the method of work and control, computerized, electronic and electromechanical sewing machines are distinguished.

Computerized sewing machine

In this modification of the sewing machine, optical sensors of the position of the main shaft, display, flash memory, microprocessor and stepper motors that control the position of the needle product and the stitch step is controlled. Thanks to the peculiarities of such management, there are no restrictions on the number of lines performed and their complexity. All sewing operations are stored in the machine's memory. It is very convenient, because using simple manipulations on the electronic panel you can quickly select and configure the necessary sewing operation, and some sewing settings are automatically implemented.

Electronic sewing machine

This model machine has an electrical drive and partially electronic and mechanical control. It is possible to manage it using electronic and mechanical regulators and switches located on a plastic case in front. The sewing speed is adjustable by means of an electronic regulator located on the case of the model, as well as using an electronic pedal. The presence of a sewing electronic regulator allows monitoring the maximum number of revolutions. This is necessary to monitor the maximum sewing speed. The regulator reduces the risk of damage. The electronic controller can also control not only the sewing speed, but also monitor the location of the needle.

Electromechanical sewing machine

It is a sewing machine with mechanical control and electrical drive. The control of such a machine occurs with the help of mechanical regulators and switches, which are located for convenience on its plastic case. Depending on the effort of clicking on the rosight pedal, you can adjust the sewing speed. In itself, the sewing speed does not change in any nor in a smaller side.

Overlock (Key Machine)

This type of sewing equipment, which performs functions on the processing of molding edges of the fabric when sewing textiles. For one single pass, overlock can trim the edge of the product, stack items and spend the cut. With overlock, the edge of the product acquires a complete and neat look. At the same time, thanks to a special knife installed in Overlock, the product is deprived of excess fabric, therefore, it is not recommended to abuse the edges to be treated. As a rule, any textile product requires trimming and processing of edges, and working with tissues with increased flowability and dissolved, without an overlock is simply not possible.

Kurlelock

This is a stammerable machine that contains the functions of an overlock (performs stimulating lines) and the cutting machine (it has the ability to perform knitted decaying seams). And all this is because the koverlock has an additional looper, the so-called, and the woven. The most used castlers are 4-line and 5-thread, although it is often possible to meet Covers, in which the number of threads reaches 12. An important advantage of Caverll is its ability to produce decorative lines. In addition, with it, it is possible to perform not only various flat seams (single-meple a two-perm, two-chi-growing three-literal, etc.), but also revision and rapidly renovated (two-dimensional line, three-dimensional, combination of 2-two-percene, three-dimensional role-playing seams, etc. .).
The only disadvantage of the castle can be called a reconfiguration from the flat seam mode to the revision, which is not always convenient and can take some time, especially if the process sequence requires constant shuttering. Nevertheless, Coverlock makes it possible to create more seams than Overlock. Therefore, choosing between overlock and koverlock, it is necessary to clearly represent how much time it will be spent on a job, and what a sequence of actions will be used more often.

Facility (plays) machine

The basis of its work is the principle of the chain stitch, when the line is formed by the interaction of the needle and the looper. The plays woofer is mainly used to perform seams on a pulling knitted material, because it makes a decaying seam very well and securely. As you know, such a seam can be created using a conventional sewing machine, but with the addition of a double needle, or using a decorative line. However, the quality of the seam made on the ordinary typewriter, experienced users may not satisfy.
The advantage of disintegration machines is their ability to work with both textured threads and polyester threads. The lines are always beautiful and smooth. With the help of a dispenser machine, you can make a decorative finish and take an elastic band in sports pants. On the cutting machine, you can flash 4 elastic flat lines (a triple flat, wide flat, narrow right-sided and flat left-sided lines). In such a car can be used from one to three needles.

Lubricant type:

As you know, lubricants are an integral attribute of any technique, including sewing. They are used to reduce friction of driving nodes and increase the life of the machine. The reliability of mechanical aggregates and sewing machine nodes directly depends on the consistency and type of lubricant used. There are the following types of lubricant: centralized silicone, silicone and graphite.

Graphite lubricant

This is the most common lubricant whose popularity is largely determined by its availability and optimally favorable price, which is the main advantages of this group of lubricants. Of the minuses, you can select the following: First, this type of lubricant leads to increased friction of driving nodes, secondly, an unpleasant odor may appear when processing, thirdly, the lubricant has a solid consistency and low lubrication properties.

Silicone Grease

The best type of lubricant, which is used almost everywhere today. Silicone lubricant is obtained by synthesizing silicone oil with a semi-liquid consistency and chemical thickener. This lubricant does not have an erosion effect on the lubricated nodes and does not corrupt rubber seals. From the positive qualities of lubrication, you can allocate: high processing rates, lack of smell, improved operation in rubbing nodes and pairs, waterproof, sealing and high range of operating temperatures.

Central silicone grease

Such lubricant is used at the same time in one place, and then on special tubular channels, it falls into those parts of the sewing machine, which most of all need constant and timely lubricant. This type of lubricant is the most effective, since it implies its uniform distribution (without inclusion and infusion) to the necessary parts and nodes.

silicone

Type of shuttle:

There are various types of shuttle, among which four main:

  • vertical rotary;
  • horizontal rotary;
  • vertical swinging;
  • shule Bernina 9.

During the sewing, the shuttle of the sewing machine can perform oscillatory movements or rotate in vertical or horizontal planes. Based on the type of movement, which makes the shuttle during sewing, it has both the corresponding names: a horizontal rotating, swinging shuttle and a vertical rotating double circuit.

Vertical swinging shuttle

This type of shuttle is classic, and it has been installed on many sewing machines for decades, from here and its name is classic. The shuttle of this type is characterized by minor vibration and noise characteristics during operation. In addition, it must be regularly lubricated. Of the advantages of the shuttle, it is worth highlighting the simplicity and the usability of the design, which is much more convenient than horizontal shuttles. Due to the presence of an adjusting screw that is responsible for tensioning the bottom thread, the sewing machine can be configured to work with any type of material without resorting to third-party help. Most modern manufacturers of sewing machines still use a vertical swinging shuttle in the proposed structures.

Horizontal rotary shuttle

This type of shuttle is installed in many models of modern sewing machines, but has a number of disadvantages, for example, a straight line can be slightly deviated to the side, and there is no possibility to set the tension of the lower thread. In the first case, deviations occur due to the fact that the axis of rotation of the shuttle is located in the parallel plane of the needle movement. And in the second case, the thread tension setting can be performed exclusively by the service center. From the positive characteristics, you can highlight the visualization of the remaining lower thread on the spool, the need for infrequent lubrication, smooth and quiet operation during rotation and simplicity of refueling.

Vertical rotary shuttle

This type of shuttle is installed on the sewing machines of the premium class. Of the advantages of the shuttle, it is worth highlighting the excellent ratio of comfort and processability. The shuttle provides the perfectly flat trajectory of the line, is characterized by smooth and quiet work, reliability of the design and simplicity in refueling. The device does not need additional lubricant. From the lack, you can only highlight the high cost of the machine with this type of shuttle.

Shuttle Bernina 9.

As is known, the Bernina 9 shuttle, which is equipped with sewing machines of the new 7th series, is considered an absolute global new product that combines the advantages of two main types of shuttle. It is made from high-quality materials that have passed special processing. Expensive and thorough polishing of each part in contact with threads, guarantees constant and optimal thread tension, and also ensures uninterrupted movement of the entire mechanism.

Bernina 9 has a positive characteristics of a vertical rotary shuttle, and also has an increased size, which makes it possible to wind up on the retractable spool of the shuttle by 80% of the threads greater than the usual, so that with one full bobbing you can embroider and sew a lot longer, not distracted on her rewrite. The Bernina 9 shuttle refueling is carried out much faster and easier than vertical shuttle: just press the special key, after which the spool will independently come from the tipper.

Manual trimming thread

On the sleeve of the sewing machine usually there is a special blade for manual trimming of the thread. After the user performs the necessary operation, it must get the material from under the paw, tighten the top and bottom threads slightly and cut them with this blade. Of the minuses of the device, it is worth noting at all the ideal ease of use and high filament.

Automatic thread trimming device

The knife for trimming the bottom and upper thread is located under the lower conveyor. Provide the knife in motion is offered using a pressing of a special button. Of the advantages of the device, you can allocate ease of use and considerable savings of thread.

How to sew, and how to use a double needle, how to refuel the threads in two needles at the same time? Threads are refilled exactly as with one needle, only two instead of one coil will be used. And both threads will pass through the same tensioner from above.

Structible materials:

Several types of styled materials are isolated: heavy, superheavy, light, ultralight and medium. When using a particular material being stitched, pay special attention to the set of threads and needles. It is also necessary to remember about several specific factors affecting the quality of sewing, as well as the simplicity and convenience of working with the material. First, this is the maximum and minimum stitch length, secondly, the level of height and lifting of the foot, thirdly, the required gap between the nose of the shuttle and the tip of the needle, fourth, the size of the hole in the needle plate and, last, the features of the lower conveyor .

Lower conveyor (gear rail)
Plays an important role in determining the possibility of sewing different in density and capricious fabrics. Thus, there is a dependence on the area of \u200b\u200bfitting the lower conveyor (toothed rail) to the tissue and the quality of sewing complex tissues (the larger the adjustment area is, the better the tissue processing) will be performed).
As a rule, a lower conveyor with 4 or 5 segments and 6 teeth on its frontal sides is used to process medium in the thickness of materials. If the number of segments and teeth will be less, it may be difficult when sewing thin tissues. But if the number of segments and teeth will be greater, it may increase the range of work with more complex types of firmware.
When working with the fabric you need to pay special attention to the sharpening and structure of the teeth:

  • a slightly rounded sharpening of the lower teeth gives the opportunity to work with ultra-light and lightweight materials (organza, chiffon);
  • the average degree of roundland allows you to qualitatively handle light knitwear and medium-sized materials (flax, cotton, knitwear, costume fabrics);
  • in case of sharp sharpening, the teeth can be used in the work as heavy and very dense materials (drape, bike, tick, denim).

It is worth remembering that some household sewing machines suitable exclusively for sewing heavy and medium materials (denim, skin, drape, etc.), it is not always possible to use for sewing thin delicate tissues, and vice versa.
Modern universal sewing machines designed to work with different types of matter usually have the widest possible lower conveyor with moderately sharp rounded teeth, which significantly affects the market value of the model.

Stitch length
Not everyone knows, but the stitch length is one of the most important characteristics when choosing a sewing machine, since at the maximum stitch length, it is possible to judge the possibilities of working with heavy and superheavy firmware (denim, leather, drape). So, the thicker it is the material being processed, the more it is necessary to feed the threads to ensure that the sewing machine does not make pass in the sewing process. The best sewing machines have a stitch length equal to five to six millimeters, but in most modern household machines, the maximum stitch length is made up of no more than four millimeters.

Clearance between the tip of the needle and the nose of shuttle
It is immediately necessary to say that this gap should not exceed 0.3 millimeters, but in some cases it still exceeds this rate, reaching 1 millimeter, which is fraught with negative consequences. For example, skipping may appear when the nose passing next to the loop will not capture it. But other factors affect the formation of the loop and the durable capture of its nose of shuttle. First, it is the quality of the needles and fabrics, secondly, the size and type of needles, thirdly, the tension of the threads (the correct and adjusted tension of the lower and the upper thread is of great importance when achieving the perfectly smooth and high-quality line). Nevertheless, the gap between the tip of the needle and the nose of the shuttle is the main characteristic that affects the passage of the stitch and, accordingly, on the type of material being styled. In the case when the gap will be greater than the norm, it is required to adjust it, and if this fails, you can safely consider the purchase option of another sewing machine.

Hole size in the needle plate
The type of material being stitched can be determined by the size of the hole in the needle plate. The needle entry hole should be small in the sewing of ultralight and lightweight materials, it is necessary to prevent the stuffing of the material and the fabric failure during the needle puncture. In addition, this size of the hole in the needle plate will make it possible to achieve an ideal trajectory line, which, in turn, is important for the appearance of the product. There are several types of needle plates: adaptive and extra. An additional needle plate allows you to manually adjust the size of the opening, which makes it possible to work with all types of fabrics.

Low palm

This parameter determines the distance between the rail, promoting the styled materials, and the presser foot of the sewing machine. Taking into account the magnitude of this parameter, it is easy to determine the thickness of the tissue, which can be placed under the foot for subsequent processing. It is important to understand that even if the material and passes under the foot of the sewing machine, it does not mean at all that the latter will be able to handle it efficiently. There are a number of factors that are crucial in the question of whether the sewing machine can process this material.

heavy, super heavy

He copes with completely different fabrics and suites, and chiffon, and Kulirka with Liker (did not want to tune in, and it was necessary to urgently sew a T-shirt - Janomochka sewed everything wonderfully). The car is excellent! The only thing I want to make a reservation, I do not save on needle and threads, I put only high-quality.

Rating 5.

Advantages: I really like this sewing machine. I tried to sew different materials: from the skin before knitwear. Everything suits me. Easy in management, you can deal with no difficulty. Of course, according to modern standards, it is already morally outdated, but for the undemanding consumer it comes at 100%. It is clearly necessary to observe the ratio of the needle-tissue, then all the lines will be smooth. Thick plots goes without problems. I bought a bunch of paws - for the models of this company very cheers.

Disadvantages: It is inconvenient that for reverse it is necessary to hold the button continuously. There is no possibility at this moment to hold the cloth with your hands. But it may be from my inexperience.

Comment: At first, I wanted a more expensive model, but after reading a lot of positive feedback about this hop, I bought it. And never regretted.

Pluses: a workhorse, I have already been 10 years old, sews silk, chiffon, drape, jeans, the skin.3 of the year I served in me in the repair of clothes. Sebaled times 20. I love her. You can choose a quiet move - very comfortable for sewing Thick materials (when jeans for example, you enhance or skin). It is also convenient to fix the needle in the fabric, for example, on the corner when you need to turn)

Disadvantages: Automatic loop is not the best, I do a loop manually.

Comment: Regarding the stitches I can say only one-under different fabrics need different needles and threads and you will be happy, you can read more about the settings on the sewing forums (ossink or season, for example). Also some users criticize an overlight line, a rapid line and Treat the edge of Overlock is a big difference and it is necessary to immediately understand that no household typewriter will process and even more so do not cut the edge as Overlock.
Regarding the extra 5 embroidery pseudo-lines 3 of them constantly use, especially the last 23-use it as a finishing on jeans, for example, friends and customers are delighted.

Advantages: The ratio of "price-quality" is pronounced here. Very good car. I have been using for 4 years. Takes and chiffon, and a drape, and knitwear. The stitch is satisfactory, withstand comparison with industrial. I read a comment on an automatic loop (they say, it is not possible to adjust the uniformly intermedible and the right edge), so in the industrial machines it is completely occurring. In short, this machine is suitable for simple housewives and for a small studio with a small area (power) and passability. Very good function - "Knitted line" (semi-shirt). Good selection of paws and fixtures. And the most important thing is that any more or less capable dressmaker or seamstress can configure it and make minor repairs.

Disadvantages: Unregulated knitted length and some finishing lines. But in my opinion, this is not regulated in other sewing machines, with different brands. And yet it is inconvenient. Of course, slow speed (with the maximum selected). But most importantly, I can not buy good high-quality knitwear needles! "Native" (included) The needle takes any kind of knitwear, and purchased - no!

Advantages: ease of use. Takes thin, thick, knitted fabrics. It works Necromko, does not vibrate, powerful.

Disadvantages: I do not have a very beautiful loop, the density blew differently, there is balancing, but I could not adjust it. Communicated on specialized forums - many have such a problem.
Knitted lines at the width of the stitch, the step is installed automatically, sometimes it is not very convenient.

Comment: Today it happened to sew on a simple brown and loved my machine with a tripled force. All that seemed to be granted - a flat line without cliff and looping, the presence of decorative and knitted lines, a low volume when working, the convenience of refueling the bobbin, ease during the passage of thick sections, the smoothness of speed adjustment and TP - all turned into undoubted advantages.
I sew on my typewriter and knitwear, without having overlocked, and thin and thick fabrics.

Sewing machine in a household or reality, or a dream of every woman, even if the sewing of things do it yourself is not her hobby. In any family there is a lot of simple work with the tissues, which I absolutely do not want to do manually, because it is much faster to flash on the machine and better. In the old days, the old "Zinger" or "Podolskaya" burned as Zenitsa Oka and was inherited. Now you do not have a problem, only the choice of the model causes difficulties. We present you a sewing machine Janome My Excel W23U, the reviews about which put it in the first row among many models. The company "Janom" producing this product has many years of experience and enjoys the latest technologies for their production.

Familiar review

Computer control machines have a microprocessor, so their possibilities are much wider than that of simple electromechanical. Only computerized devices can perform many decorative lines and complex operations.

W23U has a successful combination of functionality and low price with good sewing quality. The list of its capabilities includes many operations: the optimal set of lines with a total number of 23, including several decorative, overclocking, as well as for sewing knitwear; Automatic sweeping loops; Fixtures for sewing lightning and buttons.

The power of this model is sufficient to work with the tissues of any kind, starting with thin air and ending with a dense heavy material.

Janome W23U: features of functions

The machine "Dzhanom" has a smooth adjustment of the speed, the positioning of the needle, the electronic stabilizer of the force puncture of the tissue with a needle, a thread device. The working needle controls the built-in microprocessor, which significantly reduces the need to control the line. The pressure regulator of the paw changes the force of pressing the layers of the tissue, which allows you to install it in the desired position depending on the layer thickness. For example, when sewing thick tissues, as well as when performing curvilinear seams with a smooth turn, the paw should be loosened. The presence of the regulator facilitates the process of working with knitwear, since, reducing the pressure, the effect of its stretching can be avoided. An electronic force stabilizer allows even dense skin to sew.

Regulators are located under the top cover Janome W23U. The instruction is in the same place, therefore, without breaking away from work, you can see the width and length of the stitch for a specific operation, as well as select the tension of the thread and a suitable leg. Maximum stitch width - 6.5 mm. During sewing the working field is highlighted with a lamp. The coil in the sewing machine Janome W23U is horizontally, so the threads are unwounded smoothly, without jerks.

Another feature is the Reverse key. The button is convenient, it can be unmistakably found on the touch and click, in order to fix the line.

Shuttle device

In computerized machines, as a rule, a horizontal shuttle is applied. This is the same installed in Janome My Excel W23U. This type is different from the vertical shuttle way of location and design. It is installed under the needle plate horizontally, and since it is not covered with a bobbing cap, is within visibility. Quere comfortably control the color of the thread and its balance on the bobbin.

The horizontal shuttle does not need lubrication, the thread in the coil is not twisted (the vertical there is such a lack). When sewing it does not pass stitches. The horizontal location of the shuttle provides easy access to the bobbin and light fill.

The minus horizontal shuttle could be considered the difficulty of regulating the tension of the lower thread, but in practice it is very rare to this operation, it is usually enough to adjust the tension of the upper thread.

Consider details some positive features of the machine.

Automatic hinges for buttons, "free sleeve"

The Janome W23U sewing machine device allows you to perform such a function as a button for buttons in automatic mode, in just one reception. The size of the buttons is determined by the device with a special paw, so it is not necessary to measure the length of the loop independently. Another useful feature, the so-called "free sleeve" is needed for convenience when processing sleeves and any narrow products.

Needle switching function

Switching the needle up or down is necessary when changing the seam direction, in particular on the corners of the staple details. By clicking on the button, you can fix the lower position of the needle in the tissue when the sewing stop. Turning the product, press the button again. The needle will return to the upper position.

Sailing speed limit

If necessary, reduce the sewing speed is sufficient with the help of the regulator to set the desired maximum limit. After that, regardless of the pressure for the pedal, it will not exceed the specified value.

Equipment

Under the lid there is an organizer for storing accessories: a set of needles, paws, rods for coils, bumps, etc. Included with the machine Janome My Excel W23U buyer gets:

  • Plowed.
  • Wide (C), standard, for stitching zipper, for a concealt line, for a hammer of 2 mm, for a loop automatic.

  • Hard cover for machine.

Possible malfunctions

Janome W23U sewing machines like, and all Japanese household appliances, high-quality and reliable. Nevertheless, breakdown sometimes occur. Most often, the cause of such trouble is the lack of proper care or negligent performance. Even the most perfect technique may refuse to work if you do not provide it with the right operating conditions.

Small malfunctions in the work of the car, if you know the basic principles, you can try to eliminate yourself. However, it should be noted that the Janome W23U sewing machine technical device has its own characteristics, so some breakdowns and failures can be atypical, like most machines of other brands. This is due to the fact that in the manufacture of its technology, the concern Janome uses perfect technologies, providing Almost complete sewing automation.

So, some faults:

  1. The needle does not capture the shuttle thread, the seam does not work. The reason is the mismatch of the needle mechanism and shuttle. Need to customize the mechanism by a specialist.
  2. Speed \u200b\u200bslowed down, noise increased. It may be randomly pressing the switch that limits the speed. It should be put it in the right position.
  3. During sewing, loops are formed below. Cause in improper refueling of the upper thread. Most likely, the thread does not pass through the pitch. It is necessary to raise the paw, the flywheel is manually tightened when the pitch is in the upper position, skip the thread through it. If everything is in order with the thread, then the reason is that burrs were formed on the needle plate or shuttle.
  4. Needles break. It happens when the needle hits the needle plate, and also if the needle thickness does not match the thickness of the thread or tissue density.
  5. If, when sewing dense tissues, a knock is heard, then it should be checked if the needle did not fade. Perhaps the needle of unsuitable thickness and does not push the fibers of the fabric, and pierces them. Hence the knock. To eliminate it, it is enough to replace the needle.
  6. Because of the voltage jumps in the network, wire cuts or winding in the motor can occur. If the smell of burnt wiring appeared, you should give the machine to repair.
  7. If the motor does not turn on, but no, the electronic control unit may have failed. It can only be replaced by specialists, disassembled in the complex electronics of Janome W23U machine. The price of spare parts is defined in each case depending on the breakage.

Care of sewing machines of the brand "Dzhanom"

Any sewing machine requires care, first of all regular cleaning and lubrication, otherwise "surprises" will begin in the form of noise, stitch skip, uneven line, etc. The cleaning should be started with the removal of the shuttle. Sing the surface with a special brush is cleaned of dust, porcelines and fibers of the fabric. Then the lubricant is made. In addition, the oil is poured into the technological holes, the location of which is indicated in the instructions. It should be remembered that excessive lubricant does not go to the type of use, but is fraught with the opposite effect. Excess lubricants are wiped with a dry cloth, then a shuttle is installed in place. You can store the typewriter only in dry heated rooms.

Sewing machines Janome My Excel W23U: Price, reviews
