Considerations in Socks Production

One of the most important situations in the production of socks is the sewing of the very end of the socks. Known as “Rosso Stitch” in the industry, this stitching system is actually the micro type of overlock stitch. It is widely used because of its rapid production. The Single Row Stitching system, known as Seamless, is the same system as the Stinger machine used in the Knitwear industry. While joining the ends of the seamless socks, the loops of each sock are threaded into the needles one by one by human hands.

Of course, the most important issue in production from machine power is human power. When it comes to sewing that machines cannot do, manpower comes into play. Today, machines can do anything, yes we agree on that. But the first sample of socks is always the most difficult part of the job. Of course, the machines make the socks sample. The machine starts knitting from the rubber part of the sock and finishes the knitting process in the part corresponding to the toes. While the machine is taking out the socks sample, the person who will operate the machine connects all the colored threads to the machine. Afterwards, it tries to ensure that the pattern can be formed properly. And it tries to prevent the pattern yarns from stretching towards the inner parts of the socks and not being tied together. These trials take a long time. During these trials, the dimensions of the socks are checked. The stretch of the socks is also checked. Finally, three pairs of socks are optionally removed from each design.

There are some things to watch out for in this way. Even if the machine does a flawless job, there are always minor problems. An audit is performed at the end of all transactions. And in this inspection, it is determined whether there is an any error in the socks. If there is, the process is repeated. If manpower is needed while the processes are being repeated, this is done immediately. Until you get the perfect result.
