12.7 Mechanical Category and Driving Mode Selection for
Special Embroidery Machines
Taping machines have three types of the motion parts in the sense of mechanics. We
define them as M axis, E axis and clamp foot axis. M axis rotates a certain degrees at every
stitch to trace the stitch, which ensures cords or tapes always in front of needle movement. E
axis swings once at every one or two stitch to make the Zigzag embroidery. Clamp foot axis is
used for lifting and lowering the clamp foot.
1.
M axis
The mechanism of M axis can be divided to two types. One is with clutch device, whose
action is controlled by electric valve or by hand. Its advantage is that only the M axis of the
patching embroidery is moving and non-patching embroidery heads stay still at mending. This
will enhance the quality and efficiency of mending. The other type is without clutch device.
Both of the two types are driven by servomotor and the origins of their M axis are positioned
by proximity switch.
