Phenomenon
Cause
Corrective measures
4. Thread trim-
ming failure
①
The position of the moving knife is not
correct.
◦
Refer to
"8-5. Adjusting the position of counter
knife, knife pressure and clamp pressure 8-5.
Adjusting the position of counter knife, knife
pressure and clamp pressure" p.111
②
Bobbin thread cannot be trimmed by
dropping the thread trimmer.
◦
Use the feed dog with thicker teeth (2 mm).
◦
Retard the thread trimming cam timing by 5°.
5. Amount of idling
is excessively
large.
①
The counter knife pressure is
inadequate.
◦
Increase the knife pressure.
Refer to
"8-5. Adjusting the position of counter
knife, knife pressure and clamp pressure 8-5.
Adjusting the position of counter knife, knife
pressure and clamp pressure" p.111
②
Backlash between the bobbin and the
bobbin case is excessively large.
◦
Re-select the bobbin and the bobbin case.
③
The idling prevention spring does not
work adequately.
◦
Increase the spring pressure.
④
The idling prevention sheet is not
placed.
◦
Place the sheet in position.
⑤
Thread trimming speed is too high.
◦
Decrease the thread trimming speed.
6. Clamp failure
①
The clamp pressure has adjusted to an
excessively high or low value.
◦
Increase or decrease the clamp pressure.
Refer to
"8-5. Adjusting the position of counter
knife, knife pressure and clamp pressure 8-5.
Adjusting the position of counter knife, knife
pressure and clamp pressure" p.111
②
The clamp pressure works excessively,
resulting permanent set in fatigue of
the clamp plate clamp spring.
◦
Change the clamp plate clamp spring with a new
one.
③
The bobbin thread slips off due to the
bobbin thread slack prevention spring
of the cap hook.
◦
Remove the bobbin thread slack prevention
spring.
◦
Use the optional clamp style cap hook.
④
Due to difference in thread count
number between the needle thread and
bobbin thread, they excessively tangle
with each other at the time of thread
trimming.
◦
Increase the tension applied by the tension
controller No. 1.
◦
Retard the timing of the thread trimming cam.
⑤
The feed dog height is too low.
◦
Increase the feed dog height.
7. Isolated idling
loops during
intermittent
sewing with
thick thread
(Core spun yarn
#8)
①
Needle thread tension is inadequate
when sewing at a low speed.
◦
Increase the AT correction value for the left needle
at a low speed (200 - 1,000 sti/min) by 150 % or
more.
Refer to
"6-3. Tension correction (with respect
②
Amount of movement of the thread
take-up spring is inadequate.
◦
Increase the amount of movement of the thread
take-up spring.
③
Thick thread at the let needle fails to
come off the hook smoothly.
◦
Adjust the timing at which the left-thread is
scooped by the left hook to the point that is 16 mm
± 0.15 mm above the lower point of needle bar.
