2. Sewing Machine:
A sewing machine is a machine used to sew fabric
and other materials together with thread. Sewing
machines were invented during the first
Industrial Revolution to decrease the amount of
manual sewing work performed in clothing
companies.

3. History & Development of Sewing Machine
 Sewing machine were inverted during the first industrial revolution to
decrease the manual sewing work performed in clothing companies.
 The invention of the first sewing machine was done by Englishman Thomas
saint in 1790.
 In 1814, an Australian tailor Joseph Madersperger presented his first sewing
machine, the development of which started in 1807.
 In 1830, a French tailor Barthelemy Thimmonier patented a sewing machine
which sewed straight seams using chain stitch.
 By 1841, Thimmonier had a factory of 80 machines sewing clothes for French
army.
 Modern sewing machines are designed in such a way that the fabric easily
glides in and out of the machine without the hassle of needle and thimble
and other such tools in hand sewing, automating the process of the sewing
and thus sewing time. 3

15. Maintenance of SNLS Machine:
Maintenance can be of different types. But following types are
important in this aspects.
Routine maintenance: Lubrication and regular inspection are the
constituents of routine maintenance. Lubrication ensure long life and safe
working of all the equipment's. Inspection tries to detect faults in equipment's
so that repairs and replacements may be undertaken at the right time.
Schedule maintenance: This type of maintenance provides for
inspection ,overhaul, lubrication and servicing of the machine at
predetermined dates. Overhauling of machine, cleaning of all components is
normally done on this machine. It involves opening of the machine into its
smallest components and carry out lubrication.

16. Setting of SNLS Machine:
The setting of the lock stitch machine is of immense importance. Folding
setting points needs to be ensured before running the machine.
Stitch density controller: Its controls the no of stitch per inch. Before starting the
machine, stitches per inch is determined by rotating the knob and fixing it at the desired
position.
Motor: Motor rpm depicts the speed of the machine. The rpm is controlled by tightening
or loosing the belt over machine and motor pulley.
Needle: Needle undergoes accurate setting to ensure proper sewing. Needle is attached by
means of a screw which needs to be tightened enough to produce easy sewing. Again the
needle size is also important from fabric point of view.
Pressure foot: The type of pressure foot to be used and its proper setting is important,
which is ensured by proper attachment with the moor through machine pulley.
Feed dog: It is often found that due to random working the feed dog is subjected to be
loose which may cause accident also. Thus the feed dog must be set properly with the screw.16

17. Replacement :
The replacement is revealed when the relation of equipment is no more
remains an economical proposition. A replacement is affected when the
equipment is subjected to complete breakage which can not used even after
repair or the components has become so obsolete that affects production or it
has crossed its expiry date. Replacement can be needle, pressure Foot, feed
dog etc undergo frequent replacement.
Precautions :
 All repair and maintenance work must be carried out by switching off the
machine.
Right tools should be used at right place.
Skilled personnel should be involved for specialized job.
Careful handling of all the components is necessary.
The components should not be too tight or too loose. 17
