The main demand on the manufacturer is to guarantee consistent quality and economic processing on a machine that is easy to operate. The new “Pfaff 3686“ short seam automatic sewing machine – an upgrade of the “Pfaff 3586“ – meets this requirement. Two main machine classes are optimized for the different requirements in the different industries. All machines guarantee excellent quality; high repeating accuracy; seams and pleats with exact measurements. Only brief instructions required due to the simple and operator-friendly handling. Darts are sewn from the pocket opening to the point. This ensures a slim, neat point with no untidy “dimples”. The patented material take-over station assures exact seams. The feeding table ensures exact positioning of the workpieces and their insertion during sewing. This partially overlapping work method enables the economic use of the machine (-23/12 + -25/xx: positioning via laser pointer). Start backtacks, condensed stitches at end of the seam increase the quality additionally.

“Pfaff 3686“ is working independent of guide rails. Pre-programmed seam contours enable a change of operations in a matter of seconds. The device for a „neat seam start“ and the suction device for thread rests are new optional features for the machines -23/12, -25/11 and -25/12.
