A - INTRODUCTION
1. MACHINE DECO 2000 BASIC FUNCTIONS AND ADVANTAGES
1. Decorative machine Deco 2000 was created atAMF Reece company, so that the machine maximally
imitate the hand stitching and allows to select and create the stitch style.
The secret of this machine is principally at the special transitivity needle system. Double pointed
needle with an eye at the mid point passes through the material brings the thread from one needle
bar to the other exactly as a seamstress. This machine develops the stitch with a perfect strength,
higherqualityand higher productivity than is the hand stitching.
2. This machine has the Microprocessor with the graphical display.
Used operations in the program are easy to understand whereby symbols. It allows to the operator
fast and easy setting up all needed parameters with out linguistic barriers.
The adjustment of the sewing speed and stitch style are operations which can be made by one catch
of screen.
The other possibility of setting the parameters is to reverse of theTop stitch and Button stitch
parameters by the Reverse button placed (on the right) on the plate.
3. The quality is assured on all types of fabrics by use the double pointed needle.
Thisneedle is passing through the material very lightly, does not intercept the fabric and leave
far smallest hole after puncture than when the usual needle is used.
4. The Deco 2000 machine sewing speed up to the 500 stitches per minute is ten times more productive
than the hand stitching. The all stitch style parameters can be reversed at any sewing speed, which
escalate the productivity and minimizes the thread waste.
5. The Motor precisely positioning the needle up to the home position is another advantage of this
machine. The operator can with sureness start the sewing cycle from the beginning and also
automatically situate the needle up when the threading is needed.
6. Application:Edge stitching - of jackets, overcoats, pocket flaps
Saddlestitching - jackets overcoats ladies jackets, collars and cuffs on shirts
and blouses
Decorativestitching - all outwear garments, including leathewear
7. Deco 2000 is produced in two versions Deco 2000ATTand Deco 2000 Pick Stitch (See technical
conditions page 1-3)
