4. Use Clips Instead of pins, consider using fabric clips to hold thicker layers together while sewing. Clips work better with thicker upholstery materials and provide a strong grip without damaging the fabric.
Industrial Sewing Machines: Parts and accessories for these machines might not be as readily available in standard stores. Users often source them from specialized suppliers or directly from manufacturers.

In addition to its superior feeding mechanism, a compound feed heavy-duty sewing machine is also equipped with a powerful motor. This allows the machine to sew through multiple layers of fabric, thick materials, and heavy-duty materials with ease. The high-speed motor ensures fast and efficient sewing, making it ideal for large projects or production sewing.

The needles and needle mechanisms are beefed up in heavy-duty sewing machines as well. They use thicker, stronger needles to penetrate heavy fabrics without bending or breaking. The needles are inserted into more heavy duty needle bars and mechanisms to provide stability and vibration resistance at high speeds and with heavyweight needles. This also allows the use of dual needle systems for specialty stitches.
