The purpose of a sewing device is to reduce, as much as possible, manual work performed by a sewing worker during integration processing of a fly and a fastener by means of sewing and fabric edge processing of the fly. Provided is a sewing device including: a fly stand 18 on which a fly 1 is placed; a fastener stand 15 on which a fastener 2 is placed; a first conveying device 68 that conveys the fly on the fly stand; a first sewing machine 69 that oversews an edge of the fly that is being conveyed by the first conveying device; a supplying and conveying device 120 that supplies the fastener from the fastener stand so as to be placed on the fly, the edge of which has been oversewed, in an overlapping manner and that conveys the fly and the fastener together; and a second sewing machine 124 that sews the fly and the fastener being conveyed by the supplying and conveying device together. Manual work performed by a sewing worker is reduced, it becomes easy to hold the fly when processing the edge of the fly, because the fly is supplied as a single object, and the stable quality is achieved in the fly edge processing.

A sewing device includes: a fly base on which a fly is to be placed; a fastener base on which a fastener is to be placed; a first conveying device configured to convey the fly on the fly base; a first sewing machine configured to perform edge overcasting on the fly during conveyance by the first conveying device; a supplying and conveying device configured to supply the fastener from the fastener base onto the fly, on which the edge overcasting is finished, in an overlapped manner, and configured to convey the fly and the fastener together; and a second sewing machine configured to sew the fly and the fastener during conveyance aby the supplying and conveying device.

Various examples are provided related to attachment of tape or strips of material along a seam of a garment or other material. In one example, among others, a robotic system includes a joining device that can attach a tape or strip of material across a seam, a loading system that can position material with the seam for attachment of the tape or strip of material, a seam feed system that can adjust positioning of the material for attachment, and a tape handling system that can supply the tape or strip of material to the joining head of the joining device for attachment across the seam. A tape handling system can include a tape joining assembly that can receive tape or strip of material from a current tape cartridge and bond it to the tape or strip of material clamped by the tape joining assembly.
