A Process for Optimizing Sewing Conditions to Minimize Seam Pucker Using the Taguchi Method

Abstract: We have developed a process for optimizing sewing conditions to minimize seam pucker using the Taguchi method. The process is applied to two different T/C fabrics with the specified experimental design using an optimum orthogonal array table. The parameters selected for optimization are sewing speed, stitch length, sewing thread tension, and presser foot pressure. The Taguchi process has the following steps: calculate the SN ratios of repeated experimental observations, find the corresponding conditions that i… Show more

“…The Taguchi method, which uses the design of orthogonal array to study the entire parameter space with small number of experimental run, was used to analyze the responses [17][18]. Table 1 shows an orthogonal array, which has four control factors, X 1 , X 2 , X 3 , and X 4 , each having three levels.…”

“…Taguchi recommends the use of the S/N ratio to measure the quality characteristic deviating from the desired values. The method of modelling the S/N ratio depends on whether the quality characteristic is smaller-the-better, larger-the-better, or nominal-the-best [22]- [25]. The S/N ratio for micro-hardness is calculated using the higherthe-better criterion as depicted in Equation (1).…”
