CHAPTER 1

INTRODUCTION

Origin and Justification of the Study

One of the trends business today is the continuous development of

fashion trends designing and different sewing machine in different places.

However things might not strenuous we always encounter problems. Based

on our experience during our on the Job Training (OJT) in the field of sewing

industry. The most common problem we encountered are: Lack of spaces,

unorganized things like (Threads, Needles, Scissors, Tape Measure, etc.),

Table where you can draft, layout your pattern and cutting fabrics. For this

reason we come up to create our product with the Sewing Machine with

Modern Table.

With these ideas, the researchers decided to make a sewing machine

with modern table to help those people specifically tailors and dressmakers.

This kind of sewing machine has its own table for drafting patterns,

transferring patterns and of cutting fabrics. This kind of sewing machine has

its own table with the following sizes height: 29 ¾ inches, Length: 39 ¾

inches and for the width: 16 inches and table measurement of 24x39 ¾

inches for drafting or laying out the pattern and as well as cutting the fabrics,
 2

it also has a drawer where they can put their tools and equipment properly

and secure.

This type of sewing machine with modern table is giving you a lot of

uses, this is not just an ordinary machine but this could be the best solution to

our hardworking tailors and dressmakers.

By having this you won’t waste any seconds or minutes of your time,

continuous work with or without the presence of electricity wherein you can

successfully meet the expected date for your customer to get their clothes

might it be pants, dress or anything sewn or repair. Having the cabinet you

can make sure that all tools needed are secure and won’t waste your time

looking for one tools or another and if lost you have to replace and spend

again which can happen many times, by having this machine each tailor will

prevent from experiencing this. If there’s an electricity and the tailor or

dressmaker wants to sew there for faster and less stress they will just connect

the electric motor to the traditional sewing machine which is the paddle type

and start sewing by carefully and slowly pressing the foot onto the electric

motor, then when black out strikes they can just remove the electric motor

and just use the paddle, so work is still ongoing which makes better for a

tailor because he/she will earn more and satisfied customer needs because

they will able to meet the said due date. In addition, this type of machine

could be of big help also especially to those who has a smaller space in their

dress shop because this sewing machine with modern table has it all for a

better production.

and dress shop within 7 km from parameter from the Zamboanga City State

Polytechnic College (ZCSPC) Ayala Extension Classes area.

CHAPTER 2

REVIEW OF RELATED LITERATURE AND STUDIES

This chapter deals with the survey of related studies and findings of

related literature that may help and contribute to enrich the present research

study. To have the better and clear perspective of the research process,

some survey and ideas that are parallel to the present research study were

utilize.

Related Literature

Moore (2018) described that a sewing machine table is presented

having a first top section which is rigidly mounted to the table frame and a

second section which abuts the first section in horizontal alignment when

raised and which is rotatable affixed to the frame for movement away from

said first top section. The sewing machine table can be used to sew flat

goods with the first and second top sections in contiguous horizontal

alignment. A pivot able mechanism allows the second top section to pivot
 6

away and downwardly from the first table top section for sewing more

dimensioned goods such as baseball caps and the like.

In addition, Garza (2019) published an online article entitled “We’ve Got a

Hunch You Need an Ergonomic Sewing Machine Table” and she said that s ewing

should make you feel happy, productive and totally in the zone. What it

definitely shouldn't do is kill your back. But without a sewing-machine table

that fits your body, all that hunching forward is eventually going to cause

some misery. You need a table that gives you support in all the right places.

Start by checking out the Occupational Health and Safety Administration's

ergonomic tips for sewing tables; these suggestions are aimed mainly at

industrial garment workers but are just as useful for home sewers. Then,

when you're ready to go table-shopping, keep these five key rules in mind: 1.

Your Table Should Keep Your Work at Elbow Height and Your Wrists Straight

If your sewing-machine table is too low, you'll end up hunching forward and

straining your back, neck and shoulders (ouch!). If the table is too high, you’ll

have to raise your shoulders to work — not so fun for your neck and upper

back either. Your work should be at elbow height when you're standing.

(Same is true when you're at a cutting table, BTW.) The size of your work

surface also matters: It should be large enough to comfortably fit your

machine, plus any task lighting you need. Oh, and let's not forget your legs:

There should be enough room between your thighs and the table so you can

easily work the foot pedal without fe eling like you're being crushed; 2. The

Perfect Table Width Depends on the Type of Work You Usually Do . If you
 7

sew a lot of full-length ball gowns, you'll want a wider sewing table than if

you're dealing with kids' clothes. Either way, you don’t want to be le aning way

over or scrunching up; 3. Your Sewing Table Should Work With Your Height .

Since everyone has a different elbow height, a custom-made sewing table is

ideal, especially if you're on the tall or short side. If custom isn't an option, see

what’s available at your nearest craft store. And you don't actually have to go

with an official sewing table. A regular table can be perfect for sewing or

cutting, if its dimensions make sense for your size and project needs. You

might even find a small kitchen table that works perfectly for you. If you want

to furnish your sewing room on a budget, scour garage sales and thrift stores

to find a table with the right dimensions to fit your size — and make sure you

take a tape measure along when you're shopping; 4. The Chair You Use

Makes a Big Difference. When you're sitting in your chair, your feet should

rest flat on the floor and the work surface should still be at elbow height. If you

get an adjustable height chair, you'll have more leeway in getting the perfect

fit and making tweaks if you need to. 5. A Simple Adjustment May Be All You

Need. If you find a sewing table (or chair) that feels right— or almost right —

try altering it so it's spot-on perfect. For example, can you cut the table legs

down a little or use wooden or cinder blocks to raise them a bit? The table

you've got your eye on may be just one quick fix away from an A+ in

ergonomics.

Moreover, Gursoy (2012) who used an integer mathematical

programming method to improve the performance of the sewing operations of

 8

a clothing manufacturer. A heuristic algorithm was arrived at which was

transferred to a usable software programme which provide solutions for

reducing the number of operators in an assembly line.

Furthermore, Sunny (2018) wrote an online article entitled “Best

Sewing Machine Tables: Reviews” he said that a beginner or expert sewist or

an individual who just love sewing and enthusiastic about showcasing your

crafting skills, you need a sewing table. The best sewing machine tables have

several drawers, compartments to store not only your sewing machine but

accessories as well such as the scissor, presser feet, seam ripper, thread,

needle pack, bobbin pack etc. Imagine, you are getting ready to start with

your sewing project but don’t find the scissors or other accessories you need

to get started. It is really very frustrating and sometimes because of this, you

postpone your plan to sew to some other day when you find all the

accessories. If you had a sewing table and you had placed all your items, you

would just go to the table and be ready to sew. Not just the best sewing tables

help you organize your sewing machine and accessories, it gives your sewing

room a nice look as well. Moreover, it saves your sewing machine and

accessories from dust. Again, to use a sewing machine in a better way, you

need stability, ample space to spread the fabric or the quilt nicely. The best

sewing machine tables are designed keeping all these things in mind. We

have created below list of the best sewing machine tables after interacting

with the sewers keep reading till the end. Sunny list down some

characteristics of a good sewing machine tables and these are;

 9

Foldable Sewing Table

The name pretty much explains everything about such types of sewing

machine tables. Such type of sewing machines are having legs which you can

fold and store under your bed or in a not-so-wide area. Although they are

easy to store, but when it comes to the stability needed to start sewing with

your sewing machine, we find they aren’t much stable. They have shaken

legs which may upset and demotivate you.  We don’t want you to get

demotivated. However, if your house is congested and doesn’t have much

place to put a wide crafting table, this is the best option. But if you go for the

folding sewing table, get the quality table and make sure it is stable when

unfolded.

Adjustable

The adjustable sewing machines offer you the flexibility to adjust the

weight and width of your sewing machine table. You can adjust the height

based on your comfort ability. Some people are tall and some are not so,

hence there is always some adjustment needs to be done in order to

comfortably sit and sew. Generally, the height of a sewing machine should be

adjusted in such as a way that you could comfortably place your elbow on the

table. Sewing requires you to sit for long hours, hence it is very important that

the height of your sewing machine table should be properly adjusted so that

you don’t feel pain in your hand or the back.

 10

Collapsible

This is my favorable sewing machine table because they have plenty

of storage capacity and they are beautifully designed. The collapsible sewing

machine tables are easy to assemble when you want to use your sewing

machine and disassemble when not.

It Saves a Lot of your Space.

But such type of sewing machines tables are bit expensive than others.

Though they worth spending that much money. Though some people find it

irritating to assemble and disassemble.

Portable

Portable sewing machines tables are the basic tables with not much as

big surface area as other types of sewing machine tables. They are easy to

move from one place to others because of being lightweight as compared to

others.

Lastly, Guner (2013) analysed several line balancing techniques in

order to determine their efficiency as they related to the apparel industry. In

the context of the specific line studied, no one method was formed to be

substantially better in terms of efficiency than another.

 11

Related Studies

An area of research having great relevance to the study of assembly

lines (especially the manual type) would be studies of production systems as

they relate to the apparel industry. This would be the due to the fact that most

of the work performed in the manufacture of clothing is labour intensive and

manually, thus giving rise to stochastic (variable).

Tokura, [Link] (2011) who invented a sewing machine that includes a

needle bar, an image capture device, and a control device. A sewing needle

is mounted on a lower and of the needle bar. The image capture device also,

creates image date, and performing colour-related correction.

Unlike the first inventor Tokura, its Andres Hjalmarson, [Link] (2013)

who next invented a sewing machine that has access to memory for stitch

date and processor for reading said stitch date and for operating the sewing

machine to execute stitches according to stitch data, wherein the sewing

machine has a hoop for framing a pattern of the sewing materials, and

moving the formed pattern in a direction comprising a component of at last

one of a first coordinate (X) and second coordinate (Y) and wherein further

the processor (C) controls movement of the hoop according to said direction

in relation to the position of a needle (S) of executing stitches wherein the

stretched sewing materials is clamped to the formed pattern of the sewing

materials is scanned by means of camera mounted in the sewing machine.

 12

Then, Barbara Brindzick, [Link] (2013) introduced a system and method

for receiving and selection of a first stitch pattern, operatives sewing machine

to sew the first stitches pattern onto a material, receiving a selection of a

second stitch pattern and operating the sewing machine to sew the second

stitch pattern onto the material, wherein the combination of a first stitch

pattern and the second stitch pattern create a stacked stitch pattern on the

material.

In addition, Keonroad Alexander Giesles, [Link] (2016) he’s the one who

disclosed a household type sewing machine that includes a transmitter

configured to connect to a local device such as a Wi-Fi device and an image

capture device configured to capture a video of a work piece being sewn by

the household type sewing machine. The transmitter is configured to tend the

video captured by the image capture device to the local device.

Consequently, Daniel Le Elliot, [Link] (2017) introduce the present

invention which relates to a quilting machine, or sticker further including a

centrally located swivelling tablet mount for securing process. The amount is

positioned such that a user may access the mount from either side or the rear

or front of the stitches. The mount is one capable of swivelling so that the

user does not have to move the tablet between front and rear mounts of the

stitches or buy some separate tablets for a front or rear mount.

Furthermore, Jaganathan (2014) who studied the sewing operations of

a clothing manufacturer in an effort to improve its performance. The largest

 13

candidate rule algorithm (LCR) was employed in an effort to bring the facility

into mentioned author argued there would be an almost 50% increase in line

efficiency as well as a 25% increase in hourly productivity.

Lastly, as a result of previous inventions, Takeshi Kongo, [Link] (2018)

finally introduced a sewing data generating apparatus that acquires

information with respect to an embroidery frame. The sewing data generating

apparatus acquires an image including a base cloth mounting a sewing target

and mounted on the embroidery frame and analyses a correspondence

between acquired information. The sewing data generating apparatus

generates sewing data based on the outline data thus generated. The sewing

machines execute sewing for the outline of the sewing target according to the

sewing data thus received. This allows an appliqué to be sewn at an accurate

position without a need to prepare dedicated date.

Conclusion

The invention of the sewing machine greatly benefited the textile

industry and the consumer. Through this, the researchers came up with an

idea of innovating an important part of a sewing machine which is the sewing

machine table. With this innovation, it offered an additional work space and a

motor was also included to add an additional feature for an ordinary sewing

machine. With this innovation, clothing could be mass produced, thereby

reducing the time needed to finish a cloth. This is to give satisfaction, and

makes sewer life’s easier and convenient

Recommendations

On the basic of the result and conclusion of the study the following

recommendation are here by proposed.

 The present researchers will recommend those incoming new

researchers to put an additional light at the top so that the tailors and
 37

dressmakers can see clearly even at night time. This could be of big

help especially to those old tailors and dressmakers.

 The researchers would suggest adding a trash can where the tailors

and dressmakers can throw their trash or garbage.

 Innovated sewing machine would be much better by adding edger on

it, so that tailors and dressmakers will no longer buy an edger instead

they can have it in just one machine.

 Among other things, we would suggest to add electric fan to cool down

and get the air in their shop moving.

 The researchers would suggest adding a speaker to give a new aura

and tone.
