What is the meaning and function of thread guide?

Answer 1

A thread guide is a small metal or plastic component found on sewing machines that helps guide the thread through the machine properly. Its main function is to ensure that the thread follows the correct path from the spool to the needle, preventing tangling or breakage. Thread guides are essential for maintaining proper tension and stitch quality during sewing.

Answer 2

Ah, the thread guide is a gentle friend on your sewing machine, guiding your thread along its path as you create beautiful stitches on your fabric. It helps ensure your thread flows smoothly and evenly, like a happy little stream meandering through the woods. Just remember to thread it carefully and appreciate its role in your creative journey.

Answer 3

Thread guides lead the thread in this order: Thread Spool to Tension Discs to Take-Up Lever to Needle. A machine is threaded with the take-up lever in its highest position and the presser bar lifted. Generally, the thread guides provide a path that keeps the thread from crossing over itself. From the spool, any thread guides mounted on the top cover are first, back to front. On the face plate (front of machine) any thread guides that sit to the right of the tension discs are threaded before inserting thread around & between the discs. If there be any thread guide that is BOTH to the left of the tension discs AND right of the take up lever, the thread would go there next. My fairly typical Japanese Zigzag Machine does not have a thread guide between the tension discs and the take-up lever, but if there were one, I would call it the "Tension to Take-Up Lever Thread Guide." From there the thread passes right-to left through the hole of the take up lever, and then down through all thread guides mounted to the left of the take-up lever. Lastly, the thread goes down through a needle clamp thread guide and through the eye of the needle. Not a short answer, but I hope it addresses your question.

Answer 4

The thread guide keeps the thread running in the proper place. If the thread is not threaded correctly, the tension will be off, resulting in jammed or broken threads in the machine.
On a sewing machine, the thread guide is a small part that is attached above the needle. It looks like a hook and it hold the thread in place as it is fed through the needle.

Answer 5

To cut to cut the threads, when you finish the row of stitches lift the foot to release the tension and pull the two threads around the back of the foot lifter so that the sharp edges of the thread cutter slot cuts the threads. It just saves you from having to keep picking up the sissors.

Answer 6

The thread guide keeps the thread going straight in one direction.

Answer 7

The screw holds the needle in place. When you want to change needles, you'll need to loosen the screw first.
