The difference between domestic sewing machine and sewing machine
The difference between an ordinary sewing machine and a sewing machine is like the difference between a car and a truck.
The basic mechanism is the same - but the application purpose and method of use are completely different. Below is a difference between the sewing machine and their families.
Material
Family sewing machine is designed for the housewives of the era, as a tool to support the family, could sew the various materials, in the 1940s and 1950s, the housewife may sewing everything from clothes to put folds for bench or sew something as curtains or a jacket patch. Not necessarily excellent in any one field, home sewing machines are flexible to adapt to the needs of users.
Industrial sewing machines for use in factories, where people work in the assembly line at very specific tasks with the appropriate materials. Some machines are designed for sewing sleeve shirt, a machine designed to sew the waistband on a pair of jeans, the other machine is designed for sewing zippers. Despite how difficult the task, the control and machine are adapted to the weight and work materials.
Using
Family sewing machine is used in a few hours at a time, but in the process of using it, the machine is not running continuously. Sewing machine stitches done, then paused to adjust the material, insert or remove ... and then continue sewing different stitches. The machine is designed in accordance with a small engine and components standard sizes.
However, industrial sewing machine designed for plants. Factory workers putting the pedal and hand margin can produce hundreds or thousands of products a day. So industrial sewing machines have powerful engines, thicker shaft, bearings and gears are stronger.
Although designed specifically to sew leather or silk, the sewing machine is used more powerful than a regular sewing machine.
Motor
The engine is the most obvious sign for you that you are working with a sewing machine or a sewing machine family.
Most of the sewing machine motor is 1/2 or 3/4 horsepower horsepower. The average engine is not measured by horsepower, it is measured in amperes, a unit of electrical current.
Horsepower and amps are not easy to compare - it's a bit the same as comparing how much money people A and B income people, but if we put them on the balance of the 1 amp would be about 1/10 hp.
