Description
Summary:The purpose of this paper is to quickly and accurately identify the points representing potential defects in 2 head embroidery machines by using infrared thermography. Thermography measurements were performed with the FLIR SC 640 thermal imaging camera, which is a portable thermographic scanning equipment. The Flir Reporter 9.1 software is used to create reports based on photos taken with the Flir Sc 640 thermal imaging camera. Measurements were taken on the Ricoma 2 head embroidery machine at different work patterns to track the way the needle temperature is transmitted on the fabric on which the embroidery patterns are made. The measurements were taken for several materials and the material chosen to be presented in the present paper is a synthetic and natural fiber compound, because of its large dimensional stability. In this paper the results of thermography measurements on the chosen material are presented at a minimum working regime of 300 sinkings/min, at the optimal working regime determined by the authors to be 790 sinkings/min and at the maximum working regime of 900 sinkings/min .
