B.2.1Operating principle and machine cycle
Operating principle:
The automatic single-head serging machine 1265-4 allows the automated
serging of inseams and side seams of trousers panels, with or without knee
lining. The sewing unit automatically sews and serges cleans the fabric contour and incorporates the fullness for the knee lining, if required.
The trousers panels are sewn in separate machine cycles:
the inseam or side seam of the rear trousers panel,
the inseam or side seam of the front trousers panel with knee lining on
the inseam or side seam of the front trousers panel with knee lining on
The machine has been designed predominantly for serging
trousers panels. However, it can also be used for processing
other sewing pieces, e.g. sleeves, short trousers, etc.
Machine cycle, Fig. 2:
The short seams can be serged manually at the sewing head 2 prior to
the sewing of the inseam or side seam.
The trousers panels are stocked on the upper tray
5
, the knee linings are stocked on the lower tray
4
. The trousers panel is placed onto the working
plate, the corresponding knee lining is aligned to
the trousers panel with the hems being flush.
At the optional bonding station 6, the front and
rear trousers panels can be secured to each other
using a bonding mesh.
Both trousers panels are routed below the con-
tour guide 3 and lined up at the stop of the sewing head 2. A photocell starts the sewing process. The fully automatic machine cycle is started.
During the sewing process, the contour guide 3 and the puller of the
transport unit 7 control the routing of the seam.
If required, the top and bottom transport units of the sewing unit incor-
porate fullness.
The transport unit 7 transports the sewing piece from the working plate
to the stacker 8 where the sewing pieces are stacked on top of each
other.
As soon as the sewing process starts at the sewing head 2, the next
trousers panels can be secured at the bonding station.
To prevent the trousers panel and the knee lining from being shifted during the sewing process, they are secured to each other by hot pressing at a lateral location.
At the bonding station 1, a
bonding mesh strip 3 is placed between knee lining and
trousers panel and heated by
the lower stamp 4 of the
press unit.
Then, the upper stamp
and the lower stamp
press the sewing pieces together so that they are secured to each other.

B.2.3Guiding of the sewing pieces
The guiding of the sewing pieces along the stop of thesewing headis controlled by the combined action of contour guide and puller.
During the transport of trousers panel and knee lining to the sewing unit,
the contour guide controls the shape of the fabric contour and ensures
the exact routing of the seam along
the sewing stop 6 of the sewing
unit.
At the contour guide, the following
settings are made for the thickness
of the fabric:
Height quick adjustment 1 of
the contour guide:
Use this control for the rough ad-
justment of the thickness.
The distance between the con-
tour guide sliding shield 4 and
the working plate can be chan-
ged in four stages of 0.8 mm
each in both directions.
Stage 1: smallest distance
(0,8 mm)
Stage 4: largest distance (3.2
mm)
Height fine adjustment 2 of the contour guide:
The rough adjustment made with the height quick adjustment can
be fine-adjusted. The following should be observed as a rule:
A single fabric layer should pass easily below the sliding plate
while a double layer must not be allowed to pass through the gap.
The pressure that the contour roller 7 applies to the sewing pie-
ces is set with the adjustment screw 3.
The setting of the compressed-air nozzle 5 that blows the sewing pieces against the stop should not be changed to adjust the contour control.
4
Fig. 4
Stop:
The standard version of the machine has a stop that is secured to the contour
guide.
Optionally, the machine can be equipped with a pneumatic stop.
With this option, a pocket pouch can be inserted between trousers panel
and lining and serged. In this case, the seam section to the end of the pouch
is sewn manually, the remaining section of the seam is sewn fully automatically.
The section that is sewn manually is determined by parameter 10 of the
sewing function STATION CLOSE. At the end of this section, the transport
unit is lowered, the pneumatic stop moves to the pressure foot, and the contour guide controls the seam.
The control of the sewing pieces
along the sewing stop is affected by:
the puller speed 4,
the pressure that the contour
roller 3 applies to the se-
wing pieces.
The photocell 1 determines
the deviation of the fabric contour 2 from the ideal routing at
the reflective film and readjusts
the speed of the puller 4 as required.
If the sewing pieces are shif-
ted sideways away from the
stop, the puller speed is too
high,
if the sewing pieces warp at
the stop, the puller speed is
too low.
The frequency for adapting the puller speed is set with the program control.
In addition, the contour roller 3, due to its orientation, pushes the sewing
material toward the stop. The lateral thrust depends on the pressure that
the contour roller applies to the sewing pieces:
If the sewing pieces are shifted sideways away from the stop, the
pressure is too low,
if the sewing pieces warp at the stop, the pressure is too high.
The required contour roller pressure is determined in sewing tests in
combination with the puller speed.

B.2.4Serging the seam
Sewing head, Fig. 6:
The reflective surface 3 of the photocellmust not be damaged or dirty
as otherwise the sewing unit control may be impaired.
The sewing head performs the sewing, thread cutting, and serging functions.
As soon as the photocell 2 recognizes the sewing
pieces 1 (the reflective surface 3 of the photocell is concealed by the sewing piece), the sewing
process starts:
the trousers panel is sewn,
the knife 5 serges the seam,
the thread and fabric residues are aspired into
the waste container.
NOTE - Reflective surfaces
Fig. 6
NOTE - Cancelling the sewing process
When the program stop switch at the operating panel is depressed, all
machine movements and the sewing process are stopped immediately. The
switch is locked after it has been depressed and must be unlocked for a
reset (machine restart).
To ensure the correct width distribution, the transport characteristics of differential transport and top transport must be matched to fit the material of
the knee lining.
Presetting, Fig. 7:
In the sewing range of side seam A
and inseam B, the trousers panel
splits into five sections with the knee
lining C extending over four of these sections. For each section, the
length can be varied and the pertaining fullness (quantity) can be preset
with the program control (see Section D, Programming Instructions).
Quick adjustment, Fig. 8:
The operating panel allows direct
access for the quick adjustment of
the fullness by modifying top transport 2 and differential transport 1.
Select the corresponding function and modify
it in a range between -19 and +19 (see Section D, Programming Instructions).
The transport unit consists of puller 2 and
roller 5.
The puller transports the sewing pieces
during the sewing process and uses its
rotational speed to support the control of
the fabric contour.
The roller 5 moves the sewing pieces
beyond the worktable edge and also supports the transport function of the puller.
This additional transport function can be
enabled for heavy fabrics.
To improve the gliding characteristics of the
trousers panels, the working plate has six compressed-air nozzles 1 in the sewing head
area. The air blows from below against the
trousers panels; the resulting air cushion reduces friction during the transport.
4
In the sewing range of the side seam hip curve, the position of the strut
3
is altered to rotate the trousers panel for the sewing process.
B.2.7Stacking
Stacker, Fig. 10:
As soon as the chain has been severed and the roller has transported
the sewing pieces beyond the worktable edge, the automatic stacker
is activated and deposits the sewing piece 2 over the bundle
rod 1.
The main switch 2 is used to switch the power supply of the machine on or off. In case of extended production intermissions, the machine must be switched off with the main switch so that all functional units
are disabled. The main switch is also used as an emergency stop switch.
The main switch is located at the machine frame below the sewing head.
On / off switch for the bonding station heating module
The heating module 1 of the optional bonding station has a thermostat with a separate on / off switch
that is installed below the bonding station.
Program stop switch
When the program stop switch 3 is pressed, all
machine movements and the sewing process are interrupted immediately.
The switch is locked after it has been pressed. When
rotated clockwise, the switch is unlocked and returns
to its original position. The control performs a reset.
NOTE - Program stop switch
When the program stop switch is actuated, it merely cancels the machine cycle while the program control and
the machine drive continue to be supplied with electric
voltage. To interrupt the power supply, switch the machine off using the main switch.

During normal operation, the bonding clamp is
open. The knee lining is pushed below the bonding clamp to be secured to the trousers panel.
When the clamp switch is pressed, the bonding
clamp closes, and the knee lining is secured for
the bonding process.
The trousers panel is placed onto the knee lining.
When the bonding switch is pressed, the upper
and lower stamps of the bonding unit are pressed
against each other and the bonding mesh between
the stamps bonds the sewing pieces to each other.
Footswitch for stacker 3:
When this footswitch is pressed, the stacker bundle clamp opens so that the sewing pieces can be
removed. When the footswitch is released, the
bundle clamp closes again.
Footswitch for manual sewing 4:
This footswitch controls the sewing speed (12
speeds) during manual sewing. The further the pedal is depressed, the more the sewing speed
increases.
If the function Manual sewing is enabled, the photocell is deactivated,
and the footswitch is activated.

B.2.10 Sewing programs
The program control memory can store up to 20 sewing programs (M 01M 20). Up to 7 seams with corresponding seam numbers 3 can be as-
signed to each sewing program 2. The seams differ by the control parameters that are assigned to them by their sewing program and by the
control functions that are enabled.
Fig. 14: The display shows the structure of the selected sewing program.
Example: Sewing program M01. This sewing program controls the sewing
of the inseam with the knee lining on top. The trousers panel
is lined up at the waistband side, the sewing process is started using the photocell installed at the sewing head.
Hem seams, fly seams, and hem seams can be serged separately.
The characteristics of the preseams are set in a separate parameters list. These settings are used only if the sewing program for preseams is activated.
Inseams and side seams:
Inseams and side seams can either be serged in individual, separate sewing processes or effected as a combined sewing process with alternating seams.
In this case, the corresponding preprogrammed seams are enabled in quick
access at the operating panel.
Creating identical stitch images:
If identical stitch images are required for inseams and side seams, the knee
lining must always be lined up in the same position (always top or always
bottom). In this case, the trousers panel is lined up alternatingly flush with
the waistband and flush with the hem.

B.3.1Preparing the machine
Prior to a production start, check the supply connections, connect the machine to the compressed air system and to the power supply system, and
prepare the sewing head.
1. Connect the machine to the power supply system.
Contact with current-carrying components may cause a lethal electric shock. Check plug and cable before connecting
machine to power supply system.
Do not use damaged plugs, sockets or cables to con-
nect the machine to the power supply system!
The machine is operated with a supply voltage of 230 V
± 10 % at 50/60 Hz. The power supply cable must have
a minimal cross section of 1,5 mm.
Before connecting the machine to the power supply sy-
stem, check to see if the ratings of the power supply
system in the operating room correspond with the ratings on the nameplate at the rear of the machine.
If the ratings for voltage (V) and maximum current (A)
do not match, the machine must not be connected.
Insert the grounding plug into a properly grounded and
fused power socket.
Make sure that the power supply cable is not subjected
to tensile or pressure forces.
2. Switch the machine on by moving the main switch to position I. After
the machine has been switched on, its control program is powered up.
The display shows the most recently selected sewing program.
3. Switch the heating module on. Wait until the red indicator goes off to
indicate that the lower stamp has reached its operating
temperature.
4. Fig. 15: Connect the machine to the compressed air
supply system by installing the compressed air hose
connector to the outlet of the compressed air supply system in the operating room. A pressure reducer 1 reduces the compressed air to the operating pressure of
6 bar. Check the manometer 2 to see if the correct
operating pressure has been set. The pressure reducer
is located at the machine frame.

vTop transport
Within a sewing program, the width distribution can be corrected by quick
adjustment of the top transport.
To achieve this, the position of the top transport unit to the main transport
unit can be changed within a value range of -19 to +19. This setting affects
only that section of the seam for which fullness has been enabled.
wDifferential transport
The position of the differential transport unit to the main transport unit of
the sewing unit can also be changed by quick adjustment within a value
range of -19 to +19. This setting affects only that section of the seam for
which fullness has been enabled.
#Puller speed
The photocell determines the deviation of the fabric contour from the ideal
routing and readjusts the puller speed, as required.
If the sewing pieces are shifted sideways away from the stop, the pul-
ler speed is too high,
if the sewing pieces warp at the stop, the puller speed is too low.
The basic speed of the puller can be changed by using the input field.
xRoller
The parameter changes the length of the distance along which the roller
transports the sewing piece from the sewing head on the worktable to the
stacker.
The parameter changes the basic value of the puller speed when the waist
curve is sewn. Depending on the waist curvature, a puller speed that has
been adapted accordingly can be set.

The pressure that the contour roller 7 applies is crucial for the continuous guiding of
the sewing pieces along the sewing unit stop
6
. The required pressure is determined by
trial and error.
1. Line up sewing piece and start machine
cycle. If the sewing pieces are shifted sideways away from the stop, the pressure is
too low; rotate adjusting screw 3 counterclockwise to increase the pressure.
2. If the sewing pieces warp at the stop, the
pressure is too high; rotate adjusting screw 3 clockwise to reduce
the pressure.

To improve the gliding characteristics of the sewing pieces, the working
plate has six compressed-air nozzles near the sewing head. The air
blows from below against the sewing pieces; the resulting air cushion
reduces friction during transport. The pressure depends on the weight
of the material used. It is set using the valve 4 and must be determined by trial and error.
Transport unit clamping pressure:
The pressure that the transport rollers apply to the working plate is controlled using a pressure reducer. It can be matched to fit the thickness
of the material used.
The pressure is set using the valve 5 and must be determined by trial
and error.

C.5.14 Adjusting the stacker control cams
Fig. 12: The motion sequence of the individual stacker linkages is con-
trolled by the roller valve 1 and by the speed of the pneumatic cylinders 7.
To change the beginning or the end of a motion section, the position
is shifted along the start cam 4 or along the closing cam 5 on the
linkage.
The speed of the motions can be changed using the throttles
and 8 at the pneumatic cylinders.
Changing the cam position:
1. Loosen the locating screw 2 or 3 of the corresponding cam.
2. Shift the start cam 4 or the closing cam 5.
3. Tighten the locating screw.
Beisler GmbH

Setting the speed of the motion sequence:
1. To change the speed of the forward motion, rotate the
ajusting screw of throttle 6.
2. To change the speed of the rearward motion, rotate
the adjusting screw of throttle 8.
3. Directions of rotation:
Rotate throttle counterclockwise to increase the
speed.
Rotate throttle clockwise to reduce the speed.
Coordination of the motion sequence:
If the roller valve switches early, the linkage strikes. The
distance between the start cam and the roller valve contact 5 must be increased.
If the roller valve switches late, the motion sequence is interrupted. The distance between the start cam and the
roller valve contactor must be reduced.
The positioning of the cams must ensure that the closing
cam switches the motion of a linkage off when the start
cam of the subsequent linkage has actuated the contact
at the roller valve. The motion sequence of the stacker
consists of six steps:
1. Cylinder 1 picks up.
2. Roller valve 12 is activated.
Cylinder 2 lifts.
3. Roller valve 32 is activated.
Cylinder 3 throws over.
4. Roller valve 11 is activated.
Linkage rearward motion starts.
5. Roller valve 22 is activated.
Cylinder 2 lowers.
6. Roller valve 14 is activated.
Cylinder 1 returns to basic position.

2.1Program control layout
The program control is controlled using three different kinds of menus:
1. Operational menus with direct acces
2. Programming menus
3. Service menus
Operational menus
The operational menus are used to directly select functions that
allow corrections of the sewing process,
support auxiliary processes required during machine operation, e.g.
allow the enabling or disabling of machine functions, e.g. differential
Programming menus
The programming menus are used for programming sewing programs
and pertaining seams:
modifying existing seams,
copying and renaming sewing programs,
programming new seams,
erasing seams.
The service menus are used for managing sewing programs; they offer
functions that support the set-up and the testing of the machine:
transmission and storage of data,
input / output tests for the initiators of the compressed air system,
diagnostic tests for motors,
additional programs.
Access to some of the service menus and programming menus requires an access privilege that protects the data from unauthorized manipulation. In the service menu, data can only be input or changed after
the service code has been entered. If required, the service code can be
requested from the machine manufacturer.
Menu level structure
The operational menus consist of direct access 1 and direct access 2.
The programming menus consist of level 1 and level 2.
The service menus range from level 2 to level 4.
CAUTION - Machine damage!
Some of the menu inputs will start individual machine
components or a machine cycle. If components have been
partially or completely removed or are not operational,
machine components may be damaged.
Do not input data unless the machine is operational!
A sewing program controls the entire machine operation during production:
the routing of a seam,
the sewing of a seam,
the transfer of the sewing piece to the stacker,
the stacking of the sewing piece.
A sewing program is determined by three different kinds of values:
Sewing functions
Sewing functions are machine components that can be enabled or
disabled to perform part of a sewing process, e.g. roller or
stacker.
Sewing parameters
Sewing parameters are settings that refer only to one particular
seam of the sewing program. Changes to the sewing parameters will
affect only the currently selected seam of the sewing program for
which the setting is made.
Basic parameters
Basic parameters are values that control the basic functions of the
machine. Changes to basic parameters will result in changes of all
stored sewing programs.
Sewing programs can be extended, renamed or copied.
In a sewing program, at least one seam must be activated. If a sewing
program consists of several seams, a subset of seams may be deactivated.
Basically, it is possible to create entirely new sewing programs; however, it is usually easier to:
copy a factory-programmed sewing program to a free location in the
memory and to modify this program,
copy an already modified sewing program to a free location in the
memory and to adapt it further in accordance with the intended purpose.
Seam number
Each sewing program can be executed with up to five seams. The
seams are assigned to the sewing program by seam numbers (1, 2, 3,
4, 5).
NOTE - Editing seams
Any data changes in the program control, such as
setting parameters,
changing seam names,
copying seams,
erasing seams,
always apply to the marked seam of the sewing program
shown on the display.
D-5
D.2
Memory
Sewing programs are stored in the memory (M).
The program control memory can contain up to 20 sewing programs
(M 01-M 20).
All sewing programs stored in the memory can be copied and stored to
the memory card for data backup.
Factory settings
The program control has ten factory-installed sewing programs.
M 01-M10 for standard sewing programs.
M 09 Sewing program for manual post-sewing.
M 10 Sewing programs for preseams.
M 11-M 20 are reserved for modified or freely programmable se-

When this program function is selected, the parameter list
assigned to this specific sewing function 5 is opened.
To ensure correct width distribution, the transport characteristics of differential transport and top transport must be fit to match the material of
the knee lining. This is required when waved lining is sewn.
For this purpose, the quick adjustment can be used to change the orientation of the differential transport unit or of the top transport unit to
the sewing unit in a value range of -19 to +19. This setting affects
only the section of the seam for which fullness has been activated.
Fig. 5: Splitting the seam into sections:
Within the sewing range, the trousers panel splits into sections:
Side seam A with basic setting
S1 - S4 = 15 cm, S5 is the remaining trousers length.
Inseam B with basic setting S5 -
S2 = 10 cm, S1 is the remaining
trousers length from photocell 15
to the knee lining (usually approx
6-7 cm). This section is determined by trial and error for each sewing piece.
The knee lining C extends over
four of these five sections.
For each section, the length can be varied and the pertaining fullness
(quantity) can be preset with the program control.

3.2Programming menus
You can use the programming menus for programming sewing programs and the pertaining seams.
Basically, it is possible to create entirely new sewing programs; however, it is usually easier to:
copy a factory-programmed sewing program to a free location in the
copy an already modified sewing program to a free location in the
For creating a new sewing program, the following working steps are required:
1. Occupy free memory.
2. Add new seams or copy existing seams into a sewing program.
memory and to modify this program in accordance with the production requirements,
memory and to modify it further in accordance with the intended purpose.
NOTE - Backward scrolling in program levels
When the programming menus are selected, the menu
used last is always displayed. This level is indicated by
the number (1) placed in front of the functions. For selecting certain functions, you may have to scroll backward in
the programming and service menus.
To select the programming menus:
Press the ( key.
To scroll backward one level in programming menus:
Press the + key.
Occupying free memory
Sewing programs are stored in the memory (M).
The program control memory can contain up to 20 sewing programs
(M 01-M 20). At the factory, sewing programs are stored in memory lo-
cations M 01-M 10. The memory locations M 11-M 20 are freely assignable.
1. Request free memory location:
Press the ) key.
2. Enter two-digit numeric description using the numeric keypad.
Existing seams can be copied into the sewing program and then be modified in accordance with the specific application. This procedure is
usually easier and quicker as the copied seam already contains sewing
functions and parameters required for the new seam. The programming
always refers to the currently selected sewing program.
1. Select programming menus:
Press the ( key.
2. Select the INITIAL PARAMETER function:
Press the a key.
Programming level 2 is displayed.
3. Select the COPY FROM SEAM NO. function:
Press the c key.
4. Enter the number of the seam to be copied into the input field.
5. Confirm copy process:
Press the % key.
6. The display shows *O.K. PLEASE WAIT* to indicate that the copy
process has been successfully completed.
Then, the seam number is shown in the display field of the sewing
program.
Modifying a sewing program seam
The sewing parameters that were changed as a result of the copy process can now be fit to match the production process. The sewing parameters of a sewing programs can be changed in three stages:
1. Quick change of the major parameters for a sewing function by
using the input fields.
2. Access to the complete parameter list of a sewing function.
3. Enabling or disabling of a sewing function or machine function.

Erasing a sewing program seam
A sewing program (e.g. M 05) consists of several seams. The content of
these seams, i.e. the sewing parameters, can be erased.
The currently selected sewing program cannot be erased.
The program control contains several functions for storing sewing programs or seams to the memory card. Sewing programs or seams
stored on the card can also be copied to the storage medium of the
operating panel.
NOTE - Data backup
A faulty EPROM or microprocessor of the machine control
may result in the loss of data. Therefore, all sewing programs or the individual seams should be copied to the
memory card at regular intervals.
Do not use the supplied memory card that contains the
standard sewing programs for data backup!
Formatting the memory card
If additional memory cards (optional) are used for data backup, they
must be formatted before they can be used.
1. Insert the memory card into the slot on the operating panel.
2. Select the programming menus:
Press the ( key.
3. Select the MEMORY CARD function:
Press the b key.
4. Select the MEMORY CARD FORMAT function:
Press the e key.
The display shows the confirmation prompt *ARE YOU SURE?*.
5. Confirm selection:
Press the % key.
6. The display shows *O.K. PLEASE WAIT* until the formatting pro-
cess has been completed.

Data stored on a memory card can be copied to the operating panel either partially as individual sewing programs or completely (all sewing
programs).
NOTE - Overwriting data
If all sewing programs on the card are copied to the operating panel, all data (even seams that have been modified
before) will be overwritten.
Therefore, any changes to seams should immediately be
stored individually to the memory card.
When the programming menus are selected, the menu
