3.0 Anatomy of the Sequin Attachment
There are numerous components to the sequin attachment that must work together to produce a finished
product. Many of the parts have to be adjusted to feed and cut sequins properly. Brief descriptions of each item
are provided, followed by step-by-step instructions on how to adjust them.
Reel Holder –
Holds the reel of sequins to be sewn onto the finished product. The reel holder provides
a minimum tension on the reel to keep it from unwinding as the sequins are dispensed.
Reel Tension Arm -
Provides a constant tension to the string of sequins as they are dispensed.
Servo Motor -
Feeds the individual sequins based on speed of the machine and mode selected.
Position Adj. Knob -
Provides for small adjustments of the entire mechanism closer to or farther from the
needle for different size sequins.
Spring Hold Down -
Keeps the string of sequins from over-feeding or from back feeding as they are
dispensed.
Finger -
Engages the sequin in the center hole and feeds the sequin out to be cut.
Hard Stop -
Provides a mechanical stop for the finger as it feeds out sequins. It sets the position of
the fed sequin so the knife can cut it.
Knife -
Cuts the individual sequin from the string of sequins. The knife is actuated by the
needle bar end clamp.
Knife Guide -
Provides mechanical support for the knife and acts as a hold down for the front edge of
the channel guide.
Channel Guide -
The channel guide keeps the string of sequins flat, straight and in-line with the needle as
the sequins are dispensed.
