In the ASTM D1683 standard, developed by the American Test and Materials Association (ASTM), a test method for measuring the seam strength of woven fabrics by applying a vertical force to the stitches is presented. The full name of this standard is as follows: ASTM D1683 / D1683M-17 Standard test method for sewn stitch failure of woven fabrics.
The axis perpendicular to the sewn stitch represents the warp thread axis or the weft thread axis. This test method can be applied to stitched stitches obtained from a previously sewn material, to stitches sewn with fabric samples using one of two special sewing devices. A complete description of the stitch types can be found in the ASTM D6193 standard.
When the performance of a woven textile structure requires data showing the highest seam strength to cause the fabric to rupture on both sides of the seam, the standard seam is modified to use two or more overlapped seam type structure.
The ASTM D1683 standard is used when the highest tensile strength measurement is required for a sewn woven fabric to break. With this test method, the sewing efficiency of a seam in a woven fabric is measured. It is also used to determine the seam strength threshold where stitch failure occurs without damaging the fabric so that a textile product can be repaired. On the other hand, with this test method, the force that causes the warp threads, weft threads or any combination of these threads to shift and displace is determined by the sewing strength. However, this test method does not determine the actual wear performance of a seam.
In the production of textile products, sewing engineering is used to determine the best combination of sewing thread, stitch type and stitch density to form the end use structure. These variables represent the highest seam strength performance and structural integrity of a textile product when cut pieces of fabric are joined together. contributes to achieving.
