Abstract

Recently various types of application programs to transfer an image data into embroidery data have been proposed and widely used. However the application systems (programs) have the drawback that requires the route designation process by supervisor. Moreover the conventional embroidery machines (shuttle embroidery machine, multi-head embroidery machine, and etc.), which are using in fiber industry, have the drawbacks that the machines occupy wide area and have difficulty to operate at high-speed. Therefore, in this paper, we propose a simple but effective path planning method for an image data and construct an multi-articular embroidery machine to overcome the drawbacks of the conventional embroidery machines. Moreover we show the realizability of multi-articular embroidery machine and the effectiveness of the proposed path planning method through the stitch experiments of the multi-articular embroidery machine applied the proposed method.
