<strong>THE</strong> CHALLENGES<br />
PAGE 2<br />
| info | SEWING 24<br />
Prevention of skipped stitches and thread breakages<br />
Optimal loop formation<br />
Avoidance of material damage<br />
Even seam appearance<br />
In order to improve garment comfort,<br />
it is becoming increasingly popular<br />
to use textured yarns as a needle<br />
thread. In this way, soft and elastic<br />
seams can be created. However,<br />
this can cause problems in loop<br />
formation.<br />
TEXTURED YARNS AS LOOPER THREAD<br />
TEXTURED YARNS AS NEEDLE THREAD<br />
Skipped stitches and thread breakage<br />
The problems of skipped stitches and thread breakage can occur in a wide variety of<br />
seams, irrespective of their construction – whether in hem, flat, side, arm or double lap<br />
seams.<br />
SKIPPED STITCHES<br />
THREAD BREAKAGE<br />
Material damage<br />
A typical application for needle system <strong>UY</strong> <strong>128</strong> is sewing finely knitted fabrics.<br />
Damage to materials may occur, depending on fabric quality, finish, sewing speed and<br />
the selected needle thickness.
CHAIN STITCH <strong>LPC</strong> – LOOP POSITION CONTROL –<br />
<strong>THE</strong> GROZ-BECKERT SOLUTION<br />
The <strong>UY</strong> <strong>128</strong> <strong>LPC</strong> chain stitch needle with improved, innovative shank and groove geometry increases:<br />
Process stability<br />
Efficiency<br />
Quality<br />
The <strong>UY</strong> <strong>128</strong> <strong>LPC</strong> geometry<br />
<strong>Groz</strong>-<strong>Beckert</strong> needles with <strong>LPC</strong> geometry<br />
have optimized rounding which makes the<br />
needle even gentler on fabric and creates<br />
a well-formed loop.<br />
The larger needle eye of the <strong>UY</strong> <strong>128</strong> with<br />
<strong>LPC</strong> geometry provides the following<br />
advantages:<br />
Easy threading<br />
More space when using textured yarns<br />
As a result, the sewing process is optimized<br />
from polyester core spun yarn to<br />
textured sewing threads.<br />
In combination with the correct machine<br />
adjustment, <strong>LPC</strong> chain stitch needles<br />
produce well-formed and stable loops<br />
even when a high stitch tension is required<br />
or when textured yarns are used.<br />

<strong>UY</strong> <strong>128</strong> <strong>WITH</strong> <strong>LPC</strong> <strong>GEOMETRY</strong> – MANUFACTURING PROCESS AND ADVANTAGES<br />
Innovative manufacturing process<br />
<strong>Groz</strong>-<strong>Beckert</strong> needles with <strong>LPC</strong> geometry are manufactured<br />
using the most-advanced forming technology.<br />
The entire shank is formed using a special process. This provides<br />
the advantages of a precisely shaped needle contour<br />
together with perfect rounded groove edges.<br />
Thanks to this modern manufacturing process, the internal<br />
metal structure is compressed.<br />
Optimized rounded groove design protects sewing thread as<br />
well as fabric and reduces the risk of of thread cutting.<br />
Advantages of the <strong>UY</strong> <strong>128</strong> with <strong>LPC</strong> geometry:<br />
Reduced risk of skipped stitches<br />
Gentle treatment of fabric and sewing thread<br />
Higher process stability<br />
Less needle deflection<br />
