Abstract:
It is quite an obvious fact that as with progress of time various types of sophisticated
innovative machines are developed in the world from time to time in order to mechanize and
improve the enhancement of the productivity of manufacturing processes. Weaving machine
and the sewing machine are very typical examples. With the evolution of advancement in
technology in the textile technology in the west have moved extensively to more developing
extents, as the labor cost is relatively cheaper in these regions, mechanization was not
essentially a commercially viable option. Therefore the cause for the pace of development of
the industry has dropped drastically.
In this particular instance Sri Lanka has arrived at a rising labor cost and therefore it’s not
viable to execute all the manual operations which were previously made profitable for the
business. As a result of this we were forced to be pushed towards 2 options where it was to
let go these operations to cheaper destinations or invent novel innovative productive
processes for these operations.
This study done was with the main objective of proposing a novel productive method for
bugle bead attaching mechanism, it involves a novel method of stitching, a novel needle
type. This analyses the needle head influence over the final quality, selection of thread types
and possible bead releasing angles.
