Overlock stitches

The machine bed usually offers only one stitch type with the exemption being a combination stitch machine for which more than one stitch type is produced on the same machine. An example of this would be a five-thread overlock machine with overlocking stitch number 504 and one row of chainstitch number 401. These will be... [Pg.121]

A back-latching device in overlock is equivalent to back-tacking in a lockstitch machine. An overlock stitch is always left with a tail of chain at the start and end of a sewn piece. This is a device that back-latches the thread chain by sewing it back into the seams on the fabric at the start of sewing. In a manual version, the operator has to pull back the thread chain manually at the end of operation and clamp in the needle plate in front of the needle. In the automatic version, the thread chain is sucked (pulled back) by vacuum action through a hollow tube in the needle plate (Atlanta Attachment) or otherwise (CF ITALIA), resulting in a clean hnish. [Pg.299]
