1. Product Description
The DÜRKOPP 743-121 is a sewing unit for the automated sewing of
single-point darts with straight or curved seam configurations.
Maximum seam length 150 mm.
•The unit is equipped with a machine head in double chain stitch
execution.
•A configuration set appropriate to the seam configuration holds
and guides the material.
•The seam length control occurs either via light barrier or
programming, as desired.
•Seam securing at the beginning and end of the seam through stitch
condensing in the material and thread chain
•Thread trimming system: Controlled chain trimmer
•Transport carriage drive via step motor.
•The complete control of the sewing unit occurs through a
micro-computer. It assumes the control tasks, monitors the sewing
process and signals operating errors and malfunctions.
•An electronic thread monitor prevents a renewed starting of the
sewing procedure by thread breakage or when the thread is used
up.
