At Triumph Needle, we take pride in delivering precision-engineered sewing machines designed to meet the rigorous demands of the shoe manufacturing industry. Today, we’re going to give you an inside look at one of our most popular machines – the Pfaff 591-726 Under Trimming Sewing Machine – and explain the painstaking process we go through to modify and enhance this incredible piece of equipment right here in Leicestershire.
What Makes the Pfaff 591-726 So Special?
The Pfaff 591 is already an exceptional machine, known for its durability and precise stitching. But in the world of shoe manufacturing, where every stitch counts and details matter, we believe there’s always room for improvement. That’s where the 726 under trimming system comes in. This added mechanism ensures that excess underlining material is neatly trimmed during the sewing process, resulting in a cleaner, more professional finish. But achieving this enhancement isn’t just a matter of attaching a pre-made kit to the machine – we take a much more hands-on, customised approach.
Local Sourcing, Local Craftsmanship
At Triumph Needle, we’re committed to supporting local suppliers and craftspeople whenever possible. Many of the parts for the 726 under trimming system are sourced locally, ensuring that our machines aren’t just of the highest quality, but that we’re also contributing to the local economy. We work closely with our trusted suppliers to ensure each component meets our high standards. These parts are then carefully assembled in our workshop by a skilled team who understand the importance of precision.
The Modification Process: More Than Just a Quick Fix
The heart of our modification process takes place in Leicestershire, where we carefully modify the Pfaff 591 to fit the 726 trimming system. It’s not as simple as bolting on a new component – far from it. The first step is to strip the head of the machine. This involves removing certain key parts that could be damaged during the modification process or would simply get in the way of the next steps.
By stripping the head, we ensure that when the machine goes through its modification phase, nothing is compromised. The company we partner with for these modifications uses advanced milling machines to make precise adjustments to the sewing head. This allows them to securely hold the head in place while making the necessary changes. The modifications are delicate and require intense concentration to make sure that everything lines up perfectly for the later stages of the process.
Bringing the Machine Back to Life
Once we receive the modified sewing head back from our partners, the real magic happens. We meticulously rebuild the machine, putting back all the parts that were previously removed. This process isn’t just about reattaching parts – the machine must be carefully timed so that every component works in perfect harmony.
Imagine trying to rebuild a watch. Every tiny gear must be placed in exactly the right spot for the time to keep ticking accurately. Sewing machines, especially ones as advanced as the Pfaff 591, are no different. The needle, the bobbin, the feed dogs – all must be perfectly synchronised. Our team’s expertise allows us to put everything back together in such a way that the machine is not only functional but operating at its peak efficiency.
The 726 Mechanism: The Final Touch
Once the base machine is rebuilt, it’s time to add the 726 under trimming system. This mechanism is what sets this machine apart for shoe manufacturers. It ensures that excess underlining material (not thread) is trimmed during the sewing process, eliminating the need for post-production trimming, which saves time and improves the overall finish of the product.
The 726 system is assembled and fitted onto the machine with the same level of care and precision we put into the entire process. Once fitted, the machine undergoes a series of tests to ensure that it’s performing perfectly. Only when we are 100% satisfied with the results do we declare the machine ready for action.
A Machine Built for Purpose
So, what is the end result of all this effort? The Pfaff 591-726 Under Trimming Sewing Machine is purpose-built for quality shoe manufacturing. It’s robust, reliable, and designed to produce a clean, professional finish every time. The under trimming mechanism ensures that the excess underlining material is neatly cut and tucked away, leaving no room for error or inconsistency. This level of precision is what shoe manufacturers rely on to deliver high-quality products to their customers.
