From seam to needle – Find the right sewing needle for your product
|
|
A wide range of products can be manufactured from textiles and leather. A wide variety of sewing applications are used in this process: Not only do individual parts have to be joined together with seams, but buttons also have to be attached, zippers sewn on, appliqués applied or edges cleaned up. This, in turn, requires different sewing machines, each of which uses specific needle systems.
The many variables also influence the choice of needle. Not only must the correct needle system be selected, but the needle size and point shape must also be adapted to the material being sewn. This often makes choosing the right needle difficult.
Once the needle system suitable for your machine has been selected, you will be taken directly to the order function. There, you can choose from the recommended needle point shapes and needle sizes. In many cases, the Needle Finder will suggest a different version in addition to the standard needle. This could be a special application needle that has een specially developed for sewing the chosen product, for example, or a needle with other special features that offers additional advantages for the selected application.
The Needle Finder functions at a glance:
- Support with selecting the correct needle
- Wide range of product and seam examples
- Display of the most common needle systems for the seam
- Recommendations for needle size and point shape, adapted to the relevant seam and material
- Suggestions for needles specially adapted to the application (e.g. special application needles)
- Direct order function
- Optimized for display on mobile devices
- Available worldwide and in 14 languages
The Needle Finder is constantly being further developed and a wide range of products added to cover all applications as comprehensively as possible.
