By launching the new PFAFF 3590 vario in Shanghai, PFAFF Industrial is showcasing a modular and freely configurable large area computer stitcher for applications in the automotive, shoe, leather goods and technical textile industries.

The computer stitcher is equipped with a unique (patent registered), precise and highly flexible feed motion system. Optimum stitching and stitch length are guaranteed by the intermittent feed and transport stop when the needle enters the material. In addition to this, the material layers of cut-to-size pieces are prevented from shifting in the sewing material clamp.

Different sewing area sizes (e.g. 300x300 mm or 300x500 mm) with the appropriate sewing material clamps are now available. Other sewing area sizes can be configured on customer request. The clamp is simply constructed and can in most cases be produced on-site. The machine has a modular design; special automatic sewing heads with different hook systems allow for thread thicknesses of up to 10/3x to be processed with optimum stitch performance.

Ergonomics at the workplace have taken new dimensions with PFAFF 3590. The sewing head can be positioned crosswise or lengthwise (depending on the size of the sewing area) to enable optimum access to the needle and material.

Sewing programs and sewing corrections can be performed directly at the machine using a logically constructed touch-control panel, and then saved onto SD memory card. The PFAFF 3590 vario works with the PSP (PFAFF STITCH PROGRAM) system. This software can be installed on nearly any conventional PC with a Windows operating system.

PFAFF 3590 vario stands for maximum flexibility and premium quality!
