Safeguard for sewing machine adjustments: Best practice

A little genius parts kit conserves the optimal adjustments of the Dürkopp Adler M-Type sewing machine

Accidentally or not: the machine user often changes the settings of the sewing machine a little bit. Thus, the original adjustment can be lost, and it can take valuable time until the best adjustments are reset.

To avoid adjustment changes, Dürkopp Adler offers a little mechanical parts set for the  M-Type series. A couple of subclasses of the M-Type can be retrofitted with this kit. It blocks mechanically the settings for stitch length, thread tension, presser foot lifting and presser foot pressure.

Airbag tearing seams with constant margins between edge and seam: Best practice for automotive upholstery

Improve the sewing result by using an optical edge monitoring device for Dürkopp Adler class 550-867

In its standard version, the sewing unit comes with a special mechanical edge guide including a notch detection. However, unsteady margins between edge and seam still can occur.

This can be avoided with the sensory monitoring device. The user is warned by a light when he is inaccurately guiding the material. The sewing process will be interrupted when sewing outside of the tolerance. This improves the sewing result so that highest quality requirements can be fulfilled.

The conversion kit can be ordered with part No. 0867 590944.

Sew luxury leather bag handles with Dürkopp Adler 205: Best practice

How to sew high quality handles for leather bags and handbags?  Special sewing gauges on the Dürkopp Adler sewing machine class 205-370 will give you the best results.

The welt and the welt jacket are guided directly by the sewing foot so that an additonal edge guide is not necessary. The distance between the material edge and the seam is always equal and small. This supports the luxury look and feel of the bag handle. This solution produces nearly no waste caused by bad seams or stitches so that you can save a lot of expensive leather.

The price of the sewing gauge parts is not only attractive for industrial producers but also for small manufacturers who already own a 205-370 or think about buying a used one and equip the machine with this gauge.

Top-Lösungen: Kappnähte in Leder mit Spezialfüssen mit integriertem Kantenanschlag nähen

Für Kappnähte in Leder werden häufig hochschwenkbare und justierbare Kantenanschläge verwendet. Durch die neuen innovativen Nähfüsse mit integriertem Kantanschlag kann auf diesen zusätzlichen Anschlag verzichtet werden.
Manuell verstellbare Anschläge sind zwar sehr hilfreich, haben aber auch den Nachteil, dass die Einstellung schwanken kann.

Durch die neuen Nähfüsse ergeben sich dadurch folgende Vorteile:

• einfaches Handling durch schmale Bauweise der Näheinrichtung und den freien Nähbereich
• stets korrekter und konstanter Abstand zwischen Anschlag und Naht.
• konstant gute Nahtqualität.

Dürkopp Adler bietet zwei Arten von Füssen an (siehe Abbildungen):

• Nähfüsse mit langem Anschlag hauptsächlich für gerade Nähte
• Nähfüsse mit kurzem Anschlag für häufige Radien

Alle Nähfüsse sind erhältlich mit Anschlag rechts oder links der Nadel.

Best practice: How to sew felled seams in leather with special foot with integrated guide

For felled seams in leather normally an adjustabe additional edge guide is used. With the innovative sewing feet with integrated guide from Dürkopp Adler you will not need this additional guide anymore.
Adjustable guides are a great help, but have the disadvantage of slightly varying distance between seam and edge due to manual adjustment.

The advantages are:

• easy handling due to small sewing gauge size and free sewing area
• always correct and constant distance between edge and seam
• constant high quality sewing result

Dürkopp Adler offers tw types of feet (see attached pictures):

• feet with long sword for mainly straight seams
• feet with short sword for frequent curved seams
