Clamp foot axis
The working progress of the special clamp foot is shown at below: (The clamp foot
working height is the distance of the foot’s movement at every stitch. The clamp foot rising
height is the foot’s moving distance from the bottom to the upper point at non-embroidery mode.
And it’s also called the clamp foot limited height.)
According to the difference in motor and transmission mechanism, as well as the
equipment of proximity switch for positioning origin, the clamp foot axis can be divided to the
following types:
(1)
Raising the clamp foot manually
In this mode, the clamp foot working height relies on the rotation of the cam and the clamp
foot is raised to the limited height by hand.
(2)
Transmitted by 2-phase stepping motor separately, without the holding force and proximity
switch
It uses a small 2-phase stepping motor for lifting presser at every special embroidery head
and controlling its working height and limited height. There is no holding force when the clamp
foot stays at the upper point or bottom point at power-off. No proximity switch is taken for
positioning. As default setting, the controller sets the foot at the bottom position when user turns
on the machine.
