B.2.1 Functional
The CLOSING SEAM MACHINE 1282-4 allows the con­tour-identical sewing of front and rear trousers compon­ents in side and crotch seams. The side seam can be sewn with a braid pocket, a wing pocket or a pocket that is in­tegrated to the side seam.
NOTE - Possible applications!
The CLOSING SEAM MACHINE 1282-4 has been desi­gned predominantly for the sewing of trousers compon­ents. Therefore, the operation of the machine is descri­bed in these instructions using trousers components as examples. However, the machine can also be used for processing other sewing pieces, e.g. sleeves, rear seams of jackets etc. The prerequisite for the correct function is always that the length of the sewing pieces does not exceed the clear distance between the sewing head and the start position of the guide clamp and that the width of the sewing pie­ces does not exceed the distance between guide rail and worktable front edge.
of the machine
Fig.2
B.2.2 Lining up/aligning trousers components Fig. 2
The front and rear trousers components are placed onto one another with flush seams. The sequence for lining up the trousers components depends on the seam to be effected:
For sewing the crotch seam, the rear component is below, the front component is up. For sewing the side seams of these trousers components, the rear com­ponent is up, the front component is below.
• For sewing the right trousers components, the se­quence is inversed.
The two trousers components 2 are inserted, with the hip side oriented toward the sewing unit 4, into the guide clamp 1where they are secured with the needle. If equipped with the optional cloth transfer machine com­ponent, the trousers components ends are inserted at the cloth transfer station where they are transferred to the gui­de clamp and secured. Then, the two trousers components are aligned with the contour guide 3 and lined up at the stop of the sewing unit4.
Machine cycle:
Insertion process and machine cycle are effected from left to right:
The trousers components are lined up to guide clamp
1
, contour guide 2 and sewing unit 3.
Top and bottom transport element of the sewing unit and the puller transport the sewing pieces to the se­wing unit to be tucked and from there to the stacker.
During the sewing process, the automatic contour guide controls the routing of the seam.

Fig. 3/4
Guide clamp, Fig. 3:
The guide clamp 5 is used as a guide for the trou­sers ends during the transport along a preset contour. This guide mechanism ensures that the trousers com­ponents are always lined up at the contour guide stop and at the sewing unit stop to maintain a constant se­wing width and an even routing of the seam along the contour. During the transport, a counterweight 9 suspended from deflection rollers tensions the return ribbon 4 of the guide clamp and the cloth material without stretc­hing it. The trousers ends 7 are inserted into the cloth hol­der holder clamp. The clamp is closed manually, the needle6 holds the trousers components in the gui­de clamp. Just before the contour guide is reached, the trousers components are released from the guide clamp whi­le the air-driven return lever 8 is activated and returns the guide clamp to the insertion station.
Guide rail, Fig. 3:
The flexible guide rail 1 determines the route that the guide clamp takes. The shape of the guide rail is iden­tical with the contour of the components to be sewn. The shape is determined by changing the position of the guide rod 2 in the clamp 3.
Fig. 3
Cloth transfer, Fig. 4:
If the machine is equipped with the optional automa­tic cloth transfer 2 component, the trousers ends are inserted into the cloth transfer and transferred from there to the equally automated guide clamp 1 whe­re they are fixed.

Contour guide, Fig. 5:
The contour guide 5 is the guide for the lower cloth layer. It is movable in two directions (X/Y). While the two trousers components are transported to the sewing unit, the contour guide automatically controls the shape of the contour in accordance with the presetting. In ad­dition, a reduction of the seam from wide to narrow step width can be integrated in the automatic contour control. The two trousers components a and b are blown to the stop pins 9 of the contour guide using compres­sed air. If required, the cloth clamp 8 lowers at the start of the sewing process and fixes the two trousers components additionally for a freely selectable distance along the hem to prevent the trousers components from leaving the contour when the cloth thickens (e.g. pocket fly). The deflection plate 6 prevents the pockets from being caught in the contour guide during the transport. The following settings are possible for the contour guide:
•The air pressure for blowing the trousers compon­ents to the stop pins 9 of the contour guide can be set at the throttle 2.
• The setting of the two handwheels 3 and depends on the material thickness of the cloths to be processed.
• Use the handwheel 3 to set the distance bet­ween the center tab and the baseplate of the con­tour guide.
Fig. 5
This setting ensures the easy gliding of the trou-
sers components through the contour guide and prevents the cloth contour from overturning at the stop pins.
• Use the handwheel 4 to set the distance of the cover plate that holds the deflection plate 6 to the center tab 7.
Cloth guide, Fig. 5:
To allow a seam to be sewn in tailor quality, the sys­tem can be equipped optionally with an additional cloth guide1 for the line-up of the front trousers com­ponent. This feature is available only in connection with the optional pneumatic rule guide.

B.2.3 Transport and sewing
Sewing head, Fig. 6:
The machine can be equipped with either a narrow or a wide sewing unit 2. The seam width is determined by the width of the pressure foot of the sewing unit and by the setting of the rule stop 7. The standard version of the system comprises the ma­nually set rule stop 4 to ensure a constant seam width throuhout the entire length of the sewing piece. The pneumatically controlled rule guide 8 allows a tapered seam width by controlling the contour gui­de advance in the direction of Y using the shaft and the catch 7. The photocell 1 at the sewing head controls the sewing start. When the reflection of the light beam on the reflective area 3 is interrupted by the cloth ma­terial, the pressure foot lowers. Depending on the pre­set start mode, the sewing process now starts fully au­tomatically or must be started manually. The curve which the contour guide travels for controlling the closing seam is calculated by the program control, unit using the input X/Y values (see Section D, Pro­gramming Instructions).

Transport unit, Fig. 7:
The transport unit 1 consists of the puller 4 and the roller unit 2. The roller unit picks up the trousers com­ponents 3 from the sewing head transport and trans­ports them along the worktable edge to the stacker (Fig. 8). The puller adapts its rotating speed correspondingly to ensure that the cloth contour is guided at the rule stop. If the sewing piece moves away from the rule stop, the puller reduces its rotating speed so that the sewing pie­ce is pulled towards the rule stop. When the sewing piece is moved too close to the rule stop, the rotating speed of the puller is increased. To improve the gliding of the trousers components, the puller area has six compressed-air nozzles 5 in the working plate. The compressed air blows against the trousers components from below to create an air cus­hion that reduces friction.
Stacker, Fig. 8:
The stacker 1 stacks the tucked trousers components.

1. Place trousers component under guide rail and align hip side with the sewing unit, with the contour guide stop and with the end at the insertion station.
2. First, set the slightly flat contour at the insertion stati­on. Loosen fixing screws 2 of corresponding clamp elements 1, shift guide shafts 3 with guide rail to trousers hem and fix it there by tightening fixing screw2.
3. Set guide rail finishing curve above the contour guide. Release clamping element locking lever 6, align guide rail curve with trousers component and fix it by tighte­ning locking lever.
4. Position pick-up clamp 7. This clamp is used to dis­engage the trousers components from the guide clamp just before it reaches the contour guide. The traveling motion of the guide clamp should occur as late as pos­sible; however, the pick-up clamp should stop the mo­tion in a sufficient distance from the contour guide. Loosen knurled screw 8, position pick-up clamp at guide rail and secure it in this position by tightening knurled screw.
5. Tuck trousers components, check routing of seam and readjust guide rail if required.

Setting the contour guide:
The following can be set at the contour guide:
material thickness of the cloths,
the pressure of the compressed air used to blow the trousers components to the contour guide stop,
lowering position and pressure to be exerted onto the upper trousers component,
The setting is to ensure that:
the sewing pieces can be blown easily to the contour guide,
the trousers components glide easily on the worktable and maintain their position to each other during trans­port.
Setting material thickness for sewing pieces: The setting for the material thickness is determined in a test by presetting the corresponding knurled screw and by a visual check at the contour guide stop. Fig. 13: The material thickness is set correctly if:
a single layer of the cloth can be blown easily to the contour guide stop 4,
a double layer of the cloth does not fit in the space between the baseplate 8 and the center tab or between center tab and cover plate 8.

Fig. 14: Setting the contour guide position 1:
The start and stop positions of the contour guide in the direction of X and Y are set using the special parameters 36 and 39 (direct access via access level 2) of the pro­gram control (see Section D, Programming Instructions). The start and stop positions are aligned with the contour of the trousers components and should be set so that the cloth clamp is always lowered exactly onto the hem. The program control calculates the traveling motions of the contour guide as a curve.
NOTE - Cloth clamp position!
If the sewing of pockets is integrated in the side seam, the start position of the contour guide should be set in a way that ensures that the lower start point of the pocket is positioned before the contour guide and that the cloth clamp also checks the contour of the trousers until the start point of the pocket has been sewn.

Setting the rule stop:
The stitch width is determined by the width of the pressure foot and by the distance between the pressure foot and the stop. Two versions of the rule stop are available:
Standard rule stop,
automatic rule stop with catch for contour guide.
NOTE - Stitch width!
The minimum stitch width should not be adjusted using the contour guide settings but by replacing the sewing unit/ pressure foot assembly . If the sewing unit is replaced, the rule stop must be readjusted. Removal and installation of the sewing unit are described in the separate instructions for the sewing head.
NOTE - Contour guide positions!
Before the rule stop can be set, the start and stop posi­tions in the direction of X/Y must be set correctly.
Setting the standard rule stop:

Setting the puller lowering position and pressure: Fig. 19: When using materials of normal thickness, the
transport rollers 4 of the puller should be in the lowered position at small distance A (0.1-0.2 mm) above the wor­king plate. If the transport roller pressure onto the working plate is too high, the cloth layers may be dislocated toward each other during the transport. If thick material is used, the lowering position and there­fore the pressure of the transport rollers must be adap­ted to the material thickness. The three downrollers 2 of the roller unit should exert slight pressure onto the working plate.
Setting the distances of the transport rollers and of the down rollers to the working plate:
1. Lower transport unit manually onto working plate (see Section D, Programming Instructions, Selecting ma­chine control inputs/outputs).
2. Turn machine off.
3. Transport rollers: To adjust distance A between wor­king plate and transport rollers, change the position of the pressure cylinder clamp 3:
• Loosen the fixing screw 6 of the clamp 7 and move the clamp along the puller shaft 8. Move clamp upward to reduce the distance or downward to increase the distance.
• Check distance A using the cloth material to be processed. The cloth should pe pulled easily un­der the feed roller 4 and must neither warp nor be pressed against the working plate. Af ter the cloth material has been removed, the feed roller must not touch the working plate.
4. Tighten clamp fixing screw 6.
5. Downrollers: To adjust the distance between the wor­king plate and the downrollers 2, change the posi­tion of the pressure cylinder clamp 1 on the shaft:
• The roller fork should be lowered so far that the profile9 of the downrollers shows a distinct pres­sure surface.

at the pressure cylinders are repositioned.
Setting the knop positions:
1. Loosen knop fixing screw 3.
2. Reposition knop 4 or 1.
3. Tighten knop fixing screw.
Setting the motion speed:
1. To change the speed of the forward motion, rotate the adjusting scew of throttle 7.
2. T o change the speed of the rearward motion, rotate the adjusting screw of throttle 6.
3. Directions of rotation:
• To increase speed, rotate throttle in counterclock­wise direction.
• To reduce speed, rotate throttle in clockwise di­rection.

Coordination of the motion:
If the microswitch switches early , the linkage strikes. The start knop must be repositioned to achieve a larger di­stance to the microswitch contactor. If the microswitch switches late, the motion is interrupted. The start knop must be repositioned closer to the micro­switch contactor 5. The positioning of the knops must ensure that the finis­hing knop stops the motion of a linkage after the start knop of the next linkage has actuated the microswitch contactor . The stacker motion consists of six stages:
1. Cylinder 1 pulls up.
2. Microswitch 12 is activated.
• Cylinder 2 lifts.
3. Microswitch 32 is activated.
• Cylinder 3 throws over.
4. Microswitch 11 is activated.
• Linkage return motion starts.
5. Microswitch 22 is activated.
• Cylinder 2 lowers.
6. Microswitch 14 is activated.
• Cylinder 1 moves back to start position.

2.1 Program 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. passing thread through needles,
allow the enabling or disabling of machine functions, e.g. differential feeding or top feeding.
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.
Closing Seam Machine 1282-4 Working Instructions
Service menus
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!

Program control
D.2
Sewing program
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.

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
Depending on the production type of the sewing pieces, various sewing programs for the program have been preprogrammed at the factory.
Programs for trousers production: M 01 Side seam with braid pocket M 02 Side seam with pocket in side seam M 03 Side seam with wing pocket M 04 Crotch seam M 05 Crotch seam with tailor quality M 06 Side seam with seam break before hem (available

Functions of special parameters:
K Top feeding L Differential feeding
To ensure correct width distribution, the feeding characteristics of diffe­rential feeding and top feeding must be fit to match the material of the knee lining. This is required when fullness is to be incorporated in the rear trousers component. For this purpose, the quick adjust­ment can be used to change the ori­entation of the differential feeding unit or of the top feeding 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.
Crotch seam with basic setting S1 - S4 = 10 cm, S1 is the remai­ning length of the trousers as from photocell 15.
The length of each individual section is always measured from the beginning of the seam. The quantity of top feeding or differential feeding is switched between the section end points, e.g. quantity in section 3 is activa­ted between section end points 2 and 3.
For each section, the length can be varied and the pertaining fullness (quantity) can be preset with the program control.

3.2 Programming 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 easier to:
copy a factory-programmed sewing program to a free location in the memory and to modify this program in accordance with the produc­tion requirements,
copy an already modified sewing program to a free location in the memory and to adapt it further in accordance with the intended pur­pose.
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.
3. Configure seams (as required by production).
Closing Seam Machine 1282-4 Working Instructions
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.
Select the programming menus:
• Press the . key
Scroll backward in programming menus:

Occupying free memory
Sewing programs are stored in the memory (M). The program control memory can contain up to 50 sewing programs (M 01 - M 50). At the factory, sewing programs are programmed to me­mory locations M 01 - M 05 and M 07.
1. Request free memory location:
• Press the D key
2. Enter two-digit numeric description: The display shows * NO SEWING PROGRAM!* to indicate that the
memory location is available, and a seam is created (this seam has the same number as the sewing program).

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 key.
Programming level 2 is displayed.
3. Select the COPY FROM SEAM NO. function:

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, depen­ding on the requirements:
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.
