2. Speed and Efficiency Industrial sergers operate at much higher speeds compared to domestic models, capable of stitching thousands of feet of fabric per hour. This rapid production capability is vital in a fast-paced manufacturing environment, helping meet tight deadlines.

The design of the sewing machine head is tailored to accommodate the thicker threads and tougher fabrics typically used in FIBC manufacturing. Unlike conventional sewing machines, FIBC sewing machines feature heavy-duty needles and robust feed mechanisms to manage the bulkiness of the material. This ensures that the seams are durable and capable of handling the stresses encountered during transport and storage.

Key Features and Benefits

One of the biggest differences is in the motor. Heavy duty machines need to power through thick, layered, or dense fabrics without straining, so they have more powerful motors. Motors in heavy duty machines often range from 1 to 5 amps, while standard motors are usually around 1 amp or less. With the stronger motor, heavy duty machines can sew for longer periods without overheating or losing power. This makes them ideal for sewing operations like upholstery where seams need to go through multiple fabric layers.
