What are the benefits of using a sewing machine and a double-folding method?

SUNTECH double folding and sewing machine allows the automatization of selvedge sewing operation of knit fabrics for dyeing.

Since lycra is increasingly being used in textile industry, a process of heat fixing of the fabric is required before dyeing.

For this reason the raw tubular fabric has to be slit open, heat fixed and then sewn in tubular form again to be dyed.

Please feel free to get in touch with us at any time if you have any questions or concerns regarding the pricing of the double folding machine or the double folding and sewing machine. We also have weaving beam.
