　 　　　　　　　　　　　　with Heat Presser　U-4202-E/PS　

High-Quality Topstitching of Double-Fold Shirt
Front Placket, Enhanced with the Freedom of
Freely Adjustable Placket Width.


The operator places a material along the set ruler, and the machine automatically
performs the following 4 steps:
�@ Full double-folding → �A Stitch sewing → �B Heatpressing → �C Stacking.
During steps �B and �C, U-4202’s highly efficient overlap
workflow design allows the operator to load the following material.
Excellent mechanical design that sews while holding the entire placket area eliminates twisting,
enables accurate vertical stripe and placket alignment,
and guarantees perfect stitch quality without puckering.

AUTOMATING THE HEMMING OF SHIRTS UNDER FRONT PLACKET	The operator places the shirt's front panel aligned with U-4202's guide ruler. Then, the U-4202-E makes: �@ Double fold the entire front panel's front edge, �A Stitch sewing while holding the material down with the guide rail, �B Heat press placket as the whole area (*PS model), �C Pile up the material. Processes �@ to �C will be executed as an automatic sequence. The U-4202-E allows operators to handle vertically striped fabrics, offering the possibility of accurate alignment of double fold plackets and stripes. (Note: alignme nt of stripes and placket must be done manually.) Instead of using the conventional binder/hemmer, U-4202-E incorporates the automatic double fold mechanism, allowing operators to set and change the width of the front placket instantly at any time.
FROM FULL DOUBLE FOLD TO SINGLE FOLD	The materials are held by a powerful vacuum suction installed on the surface of the work table of U-4202-E and are steadily hemmed by an onboard double fold device. Immediately after, the materials are conveyed to the needle, securely held by a guide rail, and stitched straightaway. By adjusting the First-side fold amount setting guide, you can easily set and differentiate between a Full-Double-Fold and a Semi-Double-Fold and Single-Fold.
NEEDLE THREAD ON THE SURFACE SIDE	The bobbin thread must come to the surface side when making the shirt front placket using the conventional binder/hemmer. U-4202-E allows needle thread to appear on the surface side, securing a beautiful stitch seam line.
SET PLACKET WIDTH FLEXIBLY	The width of the shirt's front under placket can be freely set and changed from 15 mm to 35 mm. The maximum sewing length is up to 850 mm. By entering the digit on the LCD touchscreen, the device will automatically set and change the placket width, so there is no need for any tools or custom binder/hemmer for each size when changing the width of placket.
INTUITIVE OPERATION WITH LCD TOUCHSCREEN	Besides the placket width, the operator can set or change various functions and parameters of devices instantly just by touching the LCD. This machine's Intuitive touchscreen system allows hassle free operation, even for the less experienced beginner workers.
ATTACHING LABELS	Labels such as care labels can be easily inserted into the placket.
ALSO FOR THE SHIRT UPPER FRONT PLACKET	As long as the front placket is made with a one piece structure (as shown above), the U-4202-E is also useful for the production of the upper front placket, just by changing the setting of Stopper/Ruler. Although the extra stitching process Ｂ is required separately, this solution has advantages such as ease of plaid matching (horizontal stripe) and ease of inserting interlining. In addition to the shirt’s front placket, U-4202-E is also useful for the hemming of small items such as short sleeves and shirt’s pocket top.
HEAT PRESSER WITH VACUUM SUCTION (PS model)	After the double fold process, both left and right sides of the front placket are steadily held down by the guide rail and transported under the needle for stitching, then transported again to the heat pressing area. The guide rail releases the material while the vacuum suction keeps the material right under the heat pressing element, and it goes down and presses the material. Heat pressing temperature, as well as the duration, can be set in detail individually.
STACKER PILES UP MATERIALS	After the heat pressing process, the materials are automatically piled up by the stacker device. Note: Stacker is not effective in case of handling small items such as short sleeves and shirt pockets.
ATTENTION TO DETAIL OF THE EASE OF MAINTENANCE	This machine has a mode in which a series of operating sequences are executed step by step each time the start pedal is pressed, making it easy to check and adjust each device and confirm the sequence order. Also, when performing maintenance on the sewing head, it is possible to easily tilt and tilt back the sewing head to its original position.
INVERTER FOR VACUUM SUCTION	It allows the operator to adjust the intensity of vacuum suction.
THREAD BREAKAGE DETECTOR	It detects the breakage of needle thread and minimizes the loss of materials.
OPTIONAL ACCESSORY	Marking Light: It is useful in case plaid matching (vertical stripe) is required.
