Bulk bag sewing machine

Whether you are a sailor, upholster, or leather shop owner- it’s important that you understand the importance of using the right sewing machine for your heavy duty projects. 

Universal walking foot sewing machines are a versatile and essential tool for both professional seamstresses and hobbyists alike. These machines are equipped with a unique walking foot mechanism that allows the fabric to move smoothly and evenly through the machine, making them perfect for sewing thick or heavy fabrics, multiple layers, and slippery materials.

1. Motor Power Heavy-duty machines typically have a more powerful motor compared to standard models. Look for machines with a motor rated at least 1.0 amp or higher. A robust motor ensures that your machine can handle thick materials without stalling.

One of the primary tasks a serger machine performs is trimming the edges of fabric as it sews. This simultaneous action not only creates a neat edge but also eliminates excess fabric, making it ideal for projects that require precision. The serger uses a unique combination of needles and loopers to create multiple thread paths, which results in strong and flexible seams. Most serger machines use four threads, allowing for a variety of stitch options, including overlock stitches, rolled hems, and flatlock stitches.
