Teaching Textiles

In this section you will find a range of the more traditional machines used within the Textiles department - sewing and embroidery machines, overlockers and knitting machines. However, many of our other machines offer the opportunity to develop textiles products across a range of fabrics using laser and knife cutting techniques combined with sublimation printing.

Working exclusively with Brother, the sewing and embroidery machines offered by TechSoft have been carefully selected with education in mind. However, the full range of Brother machines is available from TechSoft.

For colourful textile print or embroidery designs, garment pattern outlines or graphical presentation sheets. See TechSoft Design V3.

Sublimation

Digital printing is easy with sublimation printing.

Knife Cutting

For easy surface decoration many textile vinyls can be cut-out using the CAMM 1, then heat applied to fabrics. For simple shapes and appliques, the lighter interfacing materials such as Vilene S80 and Decovil Lite can also be cut on the CAMM 1 – there’s no end to creativity here when using sublimation first to transfer an image.

Laser Cutting

Laser cut fabrics for that ‘fashionable’ look. Create textile products by sublimation then laser-cutting Decovil interfacing material.

Wearable Technology

A concept which is becoming ever more popular on the High Street – see eTextiles.

Sewing Innovations

TechSoft have been suppliers of Brother sewing and embroidery machines to schools, colleges and universities for over seventeen years. A few years ago, by popular request, we opened our “Sewing Innovations” showroom. Visitors are not only given access to a room full of Brother sewing and embroidery machines, but are also shown the techniques of dye sublimation, knife cutting and laser engraving.

Various course for the general public are run at this facility throughout the year, and all information can be found at www.sewinginnovations.co.uk. Visitors are welcome at any time Monday to Friday 9am to 5pm.
