Machinery and Technology Editor
Burak Çelik is Tekstil Rehberi's machinery and technology editor. He covers sewing, knitting, weaving, cutting and printing machines, buying used machinery, CAD/ERP software and automation in production, and checks technical specifications against manufacturer documentation.
What lockstitch, chainstitch, overlock, coverstitch, buttonhole, button-sewing and bartack machines do, which product and operation each is used for, and what to check when choosing a machine.
A coverstitch is a stretchy stitch, sewn with two or three needles, that leaves parallel straight rows on the face and a covering stitch of looper thread on the back without looping over the fabric edge; the same word names the machine that sews it. Turkish factories call it reçme.
An overlock machine, called a serger in North America, is an industrial sewing machine that forms a looped stitch over the fabric edge with needle and looper threads and, on most models, trims the edge with a knife at the same time. The stitch it makes is also called overlock; it is used for edge finishing, seaming knits and safety stitching.
