Full Description: ISew Semi-micro Waxed Thread for Machine is a sewing thread for machines but not only hand. It is made from braided polyester continuous filament. Braiding yarns refers to the process where the yarns are braided on a horizontal level. With 12 respectively 16 clappers, 6 respectively 8 rotate in the clockwise direction around a common axis, and 6 respectively 8 rotate against the clockwise direction. The clappers follow a wavy pattern since they have to go round each other. The braided yarn created in this process is wound on a so-called tambour. As the yarn has a hollow, tubular form with no twist, it has to be wound by a rolling method. The overhead feed method usually used for standard sewing threads would rotate the braided yarn and therefore results in a poor seam appearance. This is why the braided yarn is unwound over the whole process chain up to the sewing machine.
