The Groz-Beckert Needle Finder – from seam to needle
From the seam to the needle – Find the right sewing machine needle for your product
The many variables also influence the choice of needle. Not only must the correct needle system be selected, but the needle size and point shape must also be adapted to the material being sewn. This often makes choosing the right needle difficult.
The path to the right needle
With the “Needle Finder”, Groz-Beckert offers an interactive tool to help you select the right needle. Various product examples with different seams are displayed for this purpose. Selecting a seam displays details of the application, such as the stitch type class. You will also receive recommendations tailored to the product and seam with regard to needle point and needle size. In addition, the most common needle systems used for the chosen seam are suggested.
Once the needle system suitable for your machine has been selected, you will be taken directly to the order function. There, you can choose from the recommended needle point shapes and needle sizes. In many cases, the Needle Finder will suggest a different version in addition to the standard needle. This could be a special application needle that has been specially developed for sewing the chosen product, for example, or a needle with other special features that offers additional advantages for the selected application.
The Needle Finder is integrated in the Customer Portal Sewing. It can be found on the homepage directly under the “Top products” category. To use the order function, you must be registered with a customer account.
