1. Product description
1.1 Description of proper use
The 745-34-2 is a sewing unit which can properly be used for sewing
light to medium-weight material. Such material is, as a rule, material
made of textile fibres or leather. These materials are used in the
garment industry.
In general only dry material should be sewn on this machine. The
material must not contain any hard objects.
The seam is generally made with core thread, polyester fibre
or cotton threads.
The dimensions for needle and hook threads can be taken from the
table in chapter 2.4.
Before using any other threads it is necessary to estimate the
consequential dangers and to take the respective safety measures, if
required.
This sewing unit must only be installed and operated in dry and
well-kept rooms. If the sewing unit is used in other rooms, which are
not dry and well-kept, further measures to be agreed upon may
become necessary (see EN 60204-31 : 1999).
We, as a manufacturer of industrial sewing machines, assume that at
least semi-skilled operating personnel will be working on our products
so that all usual operations and, where applicable, their risks are
presumed to be known.
1.2 Brief description
The Dürkopp Adler 745-34-2 is a sewing unit for automatic
runstitching of piped, flap and welt pocket openings with rectangular or
slanted pocket corners.
The slanted pocket corners result from the seam offset of the two seam
rows. At the seam beginning and seam end it is possible to sew with
different slants.
Dependent on the working method different feeding devices, corner
knife stations and optional equipment are used.
Machine head
–Twin needle lockstitch version
–Needle bars can be switched separately or together
–Large vertical hooks
–Externally driven center knife, speed and circuit timing
programmable
–Thread trimming device for needle and hook threads
–Needle thread monitor
–Photoelectric remaining thread monitor for the hook threads
–Sewing drive as DC direct drive

Step motors for the material feed and the length adjustment of the
corner cutting device
The step motor technology results in short machine times and
guarantees an absolutely precise corner incision.
Thus, it contributes to a pocket quality as yet unequalled and combined
with high productivity.
New generation of “DAC III” controls (DÜRKOPP ADLER Control)
The graphic user guidance exclusively occurs via internationally
comprehensible symbols and text lines in the corresponding language.
The various symbols are combined in groups within the menu structure
of the sewing and test programs.
The ease of use makes short training times possible.
The user can combine 99 freely programmable pocket programs with
up to 20 seam patterns.
20 pocket sequences can be called up.
Every pocket sequence can be combined of up to 8 pocket programs in
any order whatever.
All slants suitable for practical application can be programmed by the
operator at the touch of a button.
The time-consuming adjustment of the corner knives and the tiresome
programming of seam offsets are not required.
The comprehensive test and monitoring system MULTITEST is
integrated in the DAC.
A microcomputer does the control tasks, monitors the sewing cycle and
signals operating faults and malfunctions on the display.
Optional equipment
By means of a flexible system of optional equipment the sewing unit
can be equipped optimally and economically corresponding to the
respective application.
See chapter 1.4 (Equipment of the 745-34-2).
Sewing equipment and folders
Data concerning the sewing equipment and folders for the various
applications can be taken from the Equipment Sheets of cl. 745-34-2.
