In the automotive interior manufacturing industry, the production of car floor mats may seem simple, but it actually demands high-level sewing skills. Unlike ordinary flat sewing, floor mat production often involves complex processes such as multi-layer composite materials, reinforcing edge sewing, binding tape application, and three-dimensional edge structures. Facing these challenges, the 1710 and 1760 model post bed sewing machines, with their unique design, have become core equipment for many professional floor mat manufacturers and automotive interior modification companies.
Post Bed Sewing Machine: Traditional flatbed sewing machines face limitations in operating space and maneuverability when handling edge binding, corner stitching, or fully enclosed mats with 3D edging. The 1710/1760 series, however, features a column-type machine design, with a raised column structure beneath the machine head allowing the fabric to be "sleeved" onto the column. This feature enables it to easily handle the 3D edge structures of mats, such as high edge binding, reinforced corner areas, and anti-slip areas on pedals-areas difficult to sew with ordinary equipment. The operator can rotate freely around the column, achieving continuous and smooth sewing, making it particularly suitable for sewing the 3D edging of fully enclosed mats.
Compound Feeding: Car mats are typically made of multiple layers of composite materials laminated together, including an outer layer (leather, PVC, carpet), a middle layer (sponge, XPE, EVA), and a bottom layer (anti-slip material, roughened base). If the material feeding is not synchronized, misalignment of the layers, wrinkling, or uneven stitching can easily occur. The 1710/1760 series is equipped with a synchronized integrated feeding system (Walking Foot Mechanism), where the needle, presser foot, and feed dog move in unison to ensure even feeding of the multiple layers of material during sewing. This is crucial for processes where high standards of stitch aesthetics and durability are required, such as sewing reinforced edges, attaching binding tape, and double-needle decorative stitching.
High Penetration: In critical areas of the car mats, such as the reinforced edge areas, anti-slip pedal areas, and accelerator and brake clearance zones, the material thickness is significantly increased, with some areas even requiring the sewing of rigid reinforcing strips or abrasion-resistant sheets. Ordinary sewing machines are prone to needle breakage, skipped stitches, or loose stitches in these areas. The 1710/1760 series is equipped with a high-torque servo motor, which can output stable high torque even at low speeds, ensuring the needle powerfully penetrates extremely thick areas and guaranteeing the sewing strength and durability of stressed areas.
Accessory Sewing: The installation and functionality of car mats rely on various accessories, such as Velcro for securing them, anti-slip backing fabric, wear-resistant edge banding, and metal pedal fixing strips. These accessories often need to be sewn onto edges or specific stress points. A column-type structure, combined with specialized presser feet, ensures these delicate processes are completed stably, guaranteeing accurate positioning and secure fixing of the accessories, thereby improving the installation stability and lifespan of the floor mats.
