Abstract: A study on lockstitch – 301 seam mechanics by stitching on medium weight selected apparel wear fabrics have been carried out. The effect of fabric types and numbers of fabric layers, on to on to the seam strength, seam efficiency and seam elongation is studied. It has been found that the seam strength is depends on to the stitch density for both warp and weft direction while seam efficiency is only depends on the fabric type irrespective of the seam direction. The seam elongation is only affected by the number of layers in war direction.
Keywords: Seam Efficiency, Seam Elongation, Seam Strength, Woven Fabric.
Scope of the Article: Nanometer-scale integrated circuits
