Sewing & Embroidery

All categories

Single-head, multi-head, sequin and cap embroidery, glove overlocking and template sewing machines, with advice on fields, needles, frames and stitch-out samples.

Selection guide

Start from the job rather than the machine: the item, its material, the largest design, the number of colours and how many identical pieces each run needs. Those answers decide head count, needles per head and the frames to order. Heads multiply copies, needles add colours, and a field figure can describe one head or the full bed; our note on multi-head embroidery specifications walks through each figure and how attachments change it.

Single-head and multi-head embroidery

Among single-head listings, Baoshijie's DM-1201 is a 12-needle machine whose maker gives a 1,200 × 500 mm field and an A15 display, suited to large flat pieces when your item can be framed and reached. Maya's DT-1501 comes as a 12/15-needle machine over 500 × 400 mm, with one top speed quoted for flat goods and another for caps. Futong's CT embroidery series spans cap, garment and flat configurations, single-head sizes and multi-head machines, so name the exact model you want priced.

For volume, Galaxy's two-head embroidery family is labelled 500 × 800 mm with a flatbed and a Dahao-branded display, and Bocheng's nine-needle 26-head configuration carries a 500 head-spacing label; ask for the usable field and a drawing of the long bed. Chuangjia's GT2408 is a vertical 24-needle, eight-head fabric machine with automatic frame clamping for large-width work, where repeat registration after each advance is the thing to watch. Sequin decoration sits with Yuebo's GY617-622, described with 3–7 mm sequins, left and right feeding devices, automatic feeding and cutting, and pneumatic lift.

Glove overlocking and template sewing

Lizhu's LZ-8400 7G/10G is the ordinary glove-overlocking version, with a version-specific sheet giving hem width, speed, pressure and packing figures. Other machines share the LZ-8400 name for different gauges or thicker gloves, so quote the glove gauge and send a cuff sample. If your gloves come off your own glove knitting machines, match the overlocker to that line's gauges and daily output. For programmed seams, JEEHE's JH1810-140100-DAT is a 360° rotating-head template sewing machine covering 1,400 × 1,000 mm as standard, synchronous-belt X/Y drive and SLW programming; the fixture and material stack set its working recipe.

Comparing offers and accepting the machine

Ask every supplier to quote the same work package: frames and cap drivers, attachments, controller, design software and file format. Line the answers up by configuration rather than model name, so a cheaper quote missing frames stands out. Electrical and compressed-air needs belong in the layout; confirm voltage, frequency and installed power before the site plan is fixed, and keep air pressure apart from air consumption.

Send your artwork and fabric for a stitch-out with your own material, timing the whole job including hooping, colour changes and trims rather than reading top speed alone. Write those samples and times into the factory acceptance test, and agree needles, hooks, frames and controller boards under warranty and spare parts terms.
