The new sewing machine KL 110 with Vision System has been shown by the supplier of sewing technology Pfaff Industriesysteme und Maschinen GmbH (Pfaff Industrial), Kaiserslautern/Germany, at the Texprocess North America in Atlanta, GA/USA, in May 2018. It is a CNC sewing unit with rotating sewing head (sewing area 2,500 x 1,000 mm) for servo-motorically controlled sewing of free programmable decorative seams.
Equipped with Vision System, the sewing unit is predestinated for top-stitching partially perforated materials made of leather and PVC in the automotive interior sector.
The intelligent Vision System, equipped with up to 4 cameras, among other things compensates tolerances that arise in the seam contour as a result of material shrinkage and tolerances when punching the perforation. It compares the image of a master part with the image of a part clamped in the sewing template. The complete seam design is then automatically corrected in the sewing program based on the individual measurement points. The machine achieves a maximum speed of 2,800 stiches/min with a maximum stitch length of 12 mm. Electromagnetic thread trimmer for upper and lower thread and upper thread monitor is standard equipment of the machine.
