Which stitch type is suitable for which application – and how does it influence sewing thread consumption?
Industrial stitch types define how sewing threads are interlaced or interlooped to form a seam. The international standard ISO 4915 classifies the different stitch types and provides a common basis for their designation and application.
The AMANN Knowledge Hub provides a comprehensive overview of the most important industrial stitch types – from chain and hand stitches to lockstitches, chainstitches, overlock stitches and cover stitches.
Discover how stitch type, stitch density, sewing material thickness, seam width and thread balance influence sewing thread consumption, and why accurate thread consumption calculations are essential for production planning, costing and material efficiency.
Explore the most important stitch types according to ISO 4915, their stitch formation, technical characteristics and sewing thread consumption in the AMANN Knowledge Hub.
