✦ Synopsis

Understanding the techniques for joining fabrics together in a way that facilitates maintained integrity of the joins is critical to the production of successful, structurally secure fabric products. Joining textiles: Principles and applications is an authoritative guide to the key theories and methods used to efficiently join fabrics. Part one provides a clear overview of sewing technology. The mechanics of stitching, sewing and problems related to sewn textiles are discussed alongside mechanisms of sewing machines, and intelligent sewing systems. Part two goes on to explore adhesive bonding of textiles, including principles, methods and applications. Welding technologies are then the focus of part three, before part four reviews varied applications of joining textiles.
