INTRODUCTION
Jumpsuit is a special type of a single piece garment, which has an unbroken line running from the neck to the
feet and can be flattering on different body shapes.

Application of Jumpsuits
Pilots and drivers
Aviators and astronauts, who sometimes wear insulated, fire-retardant jumpsuits or flight suits where other types of
clothing can potentially float or flap about in zero gravity or during high-G manoeuvres.
Drivers in motor racing , who wear jumpsuits for protection against fire and leather suits for abrasion.
Sportspersons
Skiers , who wear insulated jumpsuits or ski suits to protect themselves from cold (especially after falling or tumbling in
snow).
Skydivers, who wear technical jumpsuits as main sport equipment for today's sport skydiving.
Manual labourers
The jumpsuit's simple one-piece design also makes it a practical garment for tradesmen, such as cleaners, auto mechanics
and plumbers, who often wear looser-fitting jumpsuits.
Institutions
The jumpsuit has sometimes been mandated as an institutional uniform, as it can be a unisex garment and can
accommodate a wide range of body shapes.
Small children
A simple-to-launder one-piece garment can be especially convenient for parents to dress small children
Fashion
In the UK, the word onesie has come to describe casual jumpsuits (to be used as loungewear or pyjamas).

Machines Used
Single Needle Lock Stitch Machine (SNLS)
An SNLS machine makes a single line of Lock
Stitch using one needle and two threads.
Stitch formed by a needle thread passing through
the material and interlocking with a bobbin thread
with the threads meeting in the centre of the
seam. Stitch looks the same top & bottom.

Over Lock Machine

An over lock stitch sews over the edge of one or two pieces of
cloth for edging, hemming or seaming. Usually an over lock
sewing machine will cut the edges of the cloth as they are fed
through (such machines are called sergers in North America),
though some are made without cutters. The inclusion of
automated cutters allows over lock machines to create finished
seams easily and quickly.

Double Needle Lock Stitch

A double needle Lock Stitch machine works on the same principle
as SNLS while using two needles and two bobbins thus resulting
in two parallel rows of Lock Stitch. The distance between two
stitch lines depend upon the distance between the two needles on
the needle bar which can be adjusted.

Button Hole Machine

Cut- After Buttonhole Machines - These are by far the most common type of
BH machines in use today.
They sew the buttonhole first and then the knife comes down and cuts the
slit in the buttonhole.
Cut - Before Buttonhole Machines - These are not as common as the CutAfter BH Machines. They
produce a better quality buttonhole due to the fact that they cut the fabric
first and then stitch over the
edge of fabric giving you a cleaner finish.

Button Attaching Machine

Most typical button sew machines in the industry are cycle machines
that have the capability of making 8, 16 or 32 stitches on two & four
hole flat buttons or shank buttons. The flat button sew clamp
mechanism comes standard on these machines. Most machines can
be converted over to sew shank buttons by changing the clamp and
the plate with support block.

Deskilling Devices
Yoking Folder

This is used for joining yoke and shoulder.

Turns down the top ply and joins it to two additional ply.
The bottom ply is then turned back to form the yoke.
Special foot is needed

Shoulder Joining Folder

Foot and Guide assist in turning and top stitching front and back collar
bands after they have been sewn to the collar.
Produces a consistent stitch margin along the bed.

Lap Seam Folder

It is used for closing side seams.

Folder with separate width adjustment is available.
Can also be made with a spring release which will allow sleeve
seam to pass through freely.

Margin Compensated Guild

Presser Foot

Guides the stitch distance from the edge to

make a uniform parallel stitch.

Adjustable Shirring Presser

Foot

Reduces the labour required for the

shirring operation for the waist band.

Hemmer Foot

No need for manual folding of the hem.

Uniform hem stitch.

Double Up-turn Hemmer

Reduces the labour and time consumption
for folding and stitching the hem
Variation of turn sizes can be
manufactured.

Double up turn hemmer inserting or lead string

No need to manually insert the cord reducing labour
and time consumption.
Increased production rate.

Double Needle Tape Pressure Foot

Simplifies the operation of stitching the draw Stings.

Five Thread Safety Stitch Machine

This stitch is a combination of a Two-Thread Chain stitch and a

Three-Thread Over lock Stitch.
Using this strong and stable safety stitch eliminates the need to
reinforce the seam with a conventional sewing machine
straight stitch.

Buttonholer (can be used to reduce the cost of button

hole machine)

A buttonholer is an attachment for a sewing machine which

automates the side-to-side and forward-and-backward motions
involved in sewing a buttonhole.
A buttonholer attachment can create buttonholes from any sewing
machine capable of making a lock stitch.
The buttonholer's adaptor attaches to the machine's presser bar,
replacing the presser foot.
