Needle parts

What are needle parts?

Needle parts refer to two main products: the needle part of a sewing machine and the needle part of a medical device. Sewing machine needles are an important component of a sewing machine and are used to guide threads through fabric to form a seam. These sewing machine needles are designed to pass through different thicknesses and types of fabric and come in different sizes and shapes to suit various sewing needs. In relative terms, medical needles are those used in the medical and cosmetic fields, such as injections, blood draws and microneedling. These needles are usually made of materials such as stainless steel and have a delicate design that reduces patient discomfort and risk of infection.

What are the different types of needle parts?

Theknitting needlesare one of the most common sewing machine needles and are mainly used to knit yarn into fabric. Knitting needles for manual use are usually longer for the user to hold, and they can be made from wood, bamboo, plastic, and other materials. These materials are characterized by a good grip and some flexibility, making them suitable for use as hand-knitting tools. Knitting needles for sewing machines are usually made of metal, which is more durable and suitable for high-volume knitting production. The punch needleis an important part of a punch needle machine. The punch swing machine uses impact to push lines through the fabric, creating unique textures and layers. Therefore, punch needles are usually made of hardened steel and have a thicker diameter than regular sewing needles.

A tattoo needleis a specialized tool used to pierce the skin and inject ink to create a tattoo. Tattoo needles are usually made of stainless steel because of their resistance to corrosion, durability, and ease of cleaning. This material helps ensure hygiene and the long life of the tool, as well as accurate piercing ability.

The micro needlesare a type of tiny needle tool used in the medical and cosmetic fields, primarily for skin treatments. They facilitate drug delivery and skin regeneration by creating tiny punctures on the skin's surface. The micro needles are usually between tens and hundreds of micrometers in diameter. Because of their tiny size, pain is usually not felt when they are used to puncture the skin, so microneedles can also be used for vaccinations. The epidural needle is a special type of medical needle used primarily for epidural anesthesia. This anesthesia technique is commonly used for labor pain relief and certain types of surgery and is designed to provide pain control without affecting the patient's consciousness. It is usually made of medical-grade metal and has a blunt tip or a special tip designed to minimize the risk of puncturing the dura.

How to use the needle part?

For sewing machine needles, the user only needs to properly connect the needle to the sewing machine bar and secure the screws for use. When using the needle, users should change the needle according to the fabric to avoid damage or breakage of the needle. For medical needles, users must follow the code of practice to ensure that medical needles are used under sterile conditions to minimize the risk of infection. Most medical needles are single-use products, and users should dispose of them properly after use.
