Purpose The purpose of this review paper is to define the dominating factors (such as fiber, yarn, fabric structure, sewing thread, sewing needle and machine parameters) that affect the seam damages and causing defects. It also describes the various explanations of sewing defects in garment production and critically analyzes them for optimum selection of parameters and speeds for minimizing such faults. Hence, the knowledge of various factors which affect the sewing damages/defects will be helpful for garment manufacturers/researchers to know influence of the parameters and control the quality of producing seam. Design/methodology/approach This section is not applicable for a review paper. Findings Sewing damages such as needle cut and other sewing damages/defects are studied mostly in woven fabric. There are very few studies conducted on knitted fabric sewing damages/defects. The sewing damage problems do not have single solution that is capable of removing these damages in fabric. All the determined and affecting parameters related to fiber, yarn, fabric construction, sewing thread and sewing machine must be examined to design appropriate remedial measurement related to machine design, fabric parameters and sewing thread. This could help in minimizing or eliminating the needle cut and other sewing damage problems. Originality/value It is an original review work and is helpful for garment manufacturers/researchers to reduce the defects and be able to produce good quality seam.

“…9 As a result of such variety of measuring methods used by various researchers, it is sometimes difficult to compare the results reported in the literature. Nevertheless, as a result of improved understanding of the causes of sewing damage, many technical developments, such as improved needle design 10 fabric finishes, 11 thread lubrication and needle coolers, [12][13][14][15] have taken place over the years.…”

In industrial sewing, needle heating is a key problem that limits the further increase of sewing speed, and hence the productivity. Heat is generated during the sewing process because of friction between the needle and the sewing thread as well as between the needle and the fabric. The high temperature of the needle affects the quality and productivity of the sewing. The problem of needle temperature rise due to friction heat generation is considered in this paper and a simple analytical model is developed to predict needle temperature. The predicted needle temperature is compared with the experimental results by the inserted thermocouple method. Some of the process parameters, used as input variables, were also measured experimentally and experimentally observed values of needle temperature were compared with the theoretical prediction. It was observed that the temperature of the needle increases significantly with the presence of the sewing thread. Both the theory and the experimental results show that the needle temperature increases linearly with the machine speed within the ranges studied.
