Description:
The innovative buttonhole machine developed Mr. Anil Kamdar is machine ideally suited for the Indian environment, especially the rural and the semi-urban markets, where availability and parts and maintenance is an issue. Second hand imported machine are used for buttonholing by tailors in large cities. However, the same machine cannot be used in smaller towns and villages because these machines are complex and can be repaired only by the company trained and authorized service stations, which are located only in the large cities. The innovative buttonhole machine is so designed that most average sewing machine mechanics, available in plenty in the smaller towns and villages on India, can repair and maintain the machine. In fact, for most fault conditions, the tailor himself can repair and maintain the machine. The huge untapped village and small town market can captured by this buttonhole machine. .
Salient features:
  • Takes 15 seconds to stitch a buttonhole
  • Full shuttle
  • Automatic with variable speed and auto lubrication facility
  • Lesser number of parts, so requires less maintenance and lower cost
  • The cutter un-loader mechanism helps in detecting faults in running condition
Shri Anil Kamdar, the innovator of the Buttonhole machine, is a sewing machine genius and believes in innovation rather than copying western technologies. Without having electricity and any kind of tools at his home, he developed a prototype of totally indigenous buttonhole machine; he proved that Buttonhole machine can be manufactured in India
