This paper presents the measurement of the needle thread tension in an industrial sewing
machine using various sewing threads. In this work, three types of sewing threads, air-jet …

The research attempts to report the characterization of eight underexploited seed fibers viz.
Adenium, Albizia, Blackboard, Munja, Plume thistle, Poplar, Reed, and Wild sugarcane fiber …

In this article, water-based polyurethane (PU) with different concentrations and partial
alcoholysis polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) were used to coat polyester (PET) harness cord in turn …

Friction between Swedish paper yarn and needles is a limiting factor that—together with the
low yarn flexibility—is hindering the knitting and use of paper yarn as a sustainable textile …

One of the most significant physical characteristics of textiles is friction, which has a direct
bearing on how they behave mechanically. This characteristic has been researched in a …

Medical textiles, such as gowns, scrubs, and even disposable uniforms, are all stitched by
sewing machines. These garments are mostly made from polypropylene (PP) and polyester …

The wearability of braided harness cord was studied by measuring the tensile properties of
worn ones with a universal electronic strength tester and wearing test device developed in …

In this article, the harness cords were manufactured by braiding, coating and heat setting at
the temperatures of 130 and 195℃, respectively. The film formers used in coating process …

In this article, the effects of lubricant amount on sewing needle temperature and tensile
properties of polyester-polyester (PET-PET) core-spun thread are experimentally …

Diamond like carbon (DLC) coatings are well-known for the properties like protection
against wear, low friction of coefficient and high hardness. In this research sewing needles …
