Key Features

1. Colour Logo Positioning System An optical colour detection system precisely identifies the position of single or multiple logos, patterns, or printed marks on the elastic band before the join is made. Every finished elastic ring has its logo or design consistently placed — critical for branded underwear and premium garment production.

2. Dragon Gate Knife Cutting System The Dragon Gate Knife delivers clean, accurate cuts at the programmed elastic length, producing consistent ring sizes without fraying or distortion. No manual measuring or cutting is required.

3. Human Character Seam (人字缝) The SK-1430 uses the human character stitch pattern — the industry-standard seam type for elastic band joining. This stitch provides high tensile strength, excellent stretch recovery, and long-term durability through repeated laundering.

4. Imported SMC Electrical Components All electrical accessories use imported SMC components — delivering faster operating speed, superior stability, and extended machine lifespan compared to standard alternatives.

5. New Patented Pulley Design A proprietary pulley system provides a larger guiding surface area and higher elastic positioning precision, ensuring accurate feed and consistent join placement at high production speeds.

6. Wide Elastic Range (1–5 cm width, 20–110 cm length) Covers all standard waistband and legband widths for adult and children’s underwear, sportswear, and knitwear — from narrow legbands to full waistbands — in a single machine configuration.

7. DP*17 Needle (#11–16) Uses the industry-standard DP*17 needle in sizes #11 through #16, compatible with all standard elastic band materials and thicknesses across the machine’s width range.

8. Fully Automated Single-Head Operation The complete elastic processing cycle — feeding, length setting, cutting, and seam joining — runs automatically without operator intervention between pieces, enabling one operator to manage multiple machines simultaneously.

9. CE & ROHS Certified Meets European CE and ROHS certification standards — suitable for export-oriented factories supplying global apparel and underwear brands.

Everything you need to know about SAKGO’s T-shirt and polo shirt
automation machines before making a purchasing decision.

The SK-1430 is an elastic band ring-making machine — it takes a roll of flat elastic band, cuts it to the programmed length, and joins the two ends together to create a closed elastic ring. This ring is then used as the waistband or legband in underwear, sportswear, and knitwear production.

The machine handles elastic widths from 1 cm to 5 cm and elastic lengths from 20 cm to 110 cm — covering all standard waistband and legband dimensions for adult and children's garments.

The SK-1430 uses the human character seam (人字缝) — the industry-standard stitch pattern for elastic band joining. This zigzag-type stitch provides high tensile strength, excellent stretch recovery, and durability through repeated washing and wearing.

The machine's colour detection system optically scans the elastic band and identifies the position of printed logos, patterns, or colour marks before making the join. The system ensures every finished elastic ring has its logo or design placed at the correct position consistently — ideal for branded underwear and premium garment production.

The machine uses a DP*17 needle in sizes #11 through #16. The appropriate needle size depends on the elastic width and material being processed. Replacement needles are available through SAKGO's global spare parts network.

The Dragon Gate Knife is a precision cutting mechanism built into the SK-1430 that cuts the elastic band to the exact programmed length at the end of each cycle. It delivers clean, straight cuts without fraying, eliminating the need for manual measuring and cutting.
