Binders and Binding Machines

We specialize in binding attachments for industrial sewing applications. Regardless of the job, we can help with your binder needs. The right binder for hats, upholstery, mattress, garments and much more can increase your production and quality.

Binding machines are either flatbed or cylinder machines, straight stitch lockstitch, zig-zag lockstitch or chainstitch, depending on your application. You can also purchase binders to fit your existing machines, in a wide variety of variations.

Synchronized Feed Binders

Synchronized Binder Feed Machines are equipped with a special mechanism that oscillates the binder with the movement of the feed dog and the walking (front) presser foot.

The binder is mounted very closely to the front presser foot and the needle, and it’s movement is “synchronized” perfectly throughout the sewing cycle.

Since the needle is so close to the binder, the binding is sew down immediately after it leaves the mouth of the binder.

This allows the machine to easily sew around a very small radius and prevents the binding from “dropping off” the work, which is a frequent problem in binding operations where a standard ( non synchronized ) binder is used.

Binders can be very specialized, but there are 3 basic types; right angle, in line and C type.
