Machine: Melco Bravo with OSv11
Software: Designshop PRO+ v10
The machine is less than a year old and all of my thread is poly.
I dont use the machine too frequently but generally its a few pieces a day.
I have been good about keeping the bobbin area oiled before use and the rest of the machine looks to be ok as far a total re-lube but I will do one soon regardless.
The past few days have been hectic for me, I only have 1 machine and I have not been able to get my jobs moving forward. I was running some T-shirts with just a basic 2 line text on the chest and before this problem occurred, I had done 18 shirts.
The shirts are a basic 50/50 blend, I was using 3.5oz cut away backing and hooped via mighty hoops.
The popping sound just started recently and sometimes it will pop and keep sewing and most times it results in a popping and actual thread break. When the thread breaks I can see that it is frayed on the end. I could be wrong but it sounds like its coming from the black sliding levers right below the red thread rollers.
I have attached 2 images of the earthday design which I was instructed to use as a point of reference for sewing samples. The one with the lightblue sky/water was done during my training. The dark blue sky/water was done just 20 minutes ago and you can sort of see in the picture theres some looping above the trees and the fill stitch just doesn't look tight and together. Both samples were done on the same material and acti-feed was on 4 for both.
Appreciate all the help and I'll be here to troubleshoot with any and all tips I receive.
I understand the images might be hard to see the fine details we are looking for so if needed I'll see if I can get a pre-zoomed in copy uploaded.
