pleat stroke, pleat length Explanation: Raffen: (Stoff) an einer bestimmten Stelle so zusammenhalten, dass er in Falten (1b) fällt und dadurch ein wenig hochgezogen wird (https://www.duden.de/rechtschreibung/raffen#Bedeutung2) This is the same as pleating. Stichmass = stitch length Stichmass für Schuhe: https://www.fischerschuhe.at/schuhgrößen/ "Stitch length is the width of the stitch made by a swing needle machine" (http://textilelearner.blogspot.com/2016/04/stitch-length-mea... Hub = stroke or the length of the stroke, if one thinks of pneumatic cylinders The use of pneumatic cylinders also explains the "Vakuumkreis (Raffen)". This is a vacuum circuit used for pleating. Now I make a guess: The machine produces bags of some kind. Per 105 mm stitch it makes a pleat of length 5 mm backwards, giving a 100 mm stitch. |
