Effects of Sewing Conditions for Knitted Fabric on the Heat Generation of Sewing Needle

The heat of sewing needle is generated through the friction during the needle penetration into and withdrawal from fabrics. Therefore, effects of sewing condition for knitted fabric on the heat generation of needle was examined. The needle size was not the large influence factor of heat generation of needle but the needle point shape significantly affects needle temperature. And the super needle coated with fluoro resin had more effect on reducing the heat of needle. The decrease of sewing speed and the increase of stitch rate had more effect on the reduction in needle temperature. Also the Influence of a sewing thread on the needle temperature was very large compared with bare needle. As expected, an increase in the number of fabric layers result in higher needle temperature.
