About PEGASUS FOLDING CUTTER MACHINE
n the industrial textile and garment industry, a "Pegasus Folding Cutter Machine" typically refers to a high-speed
Pegasus industrial sewing machine equipped with integrated fabric folding (hemming) and material trimming attachments. Rather than standalone cutting equipment,
Pegasus (a premier Japanese manufacturer) produces specialized interlock/flatlock stitch machines that fold fabric edges and cut away excess fabric or thread chains simultaneously to maximize factory floor efficience.
These heavy-duty systems are primarily categorized into two distinct setups depending on your exact manufacturing line requirements: [

Pegasus Cylinder Bed Flatlock / Interlock Machines (With Built-in Fabric Cutter)
These units are designed for tubular or circular garment sections like t-shirt bottom hems, sleeve cuffs, underwear, and sportswear. They utilize an integrated fabric edge trimmer (such as the FT device) to cleanly slice away uneven excess material right before the folding mechanism guides it into the needles.
- Pegasus W662PCH Series: Features a specialized cylinder bed equipped with a left-side fabric cutter designed for clean, automated folding and stitching operations. A brand-new unit typically retails around 1,85,000 on platforms like IndiaMART.
- Pegasus W600PC / WT600P Series: High-speed bottom hemming variants built with oil-barrier technology to prevent oil leaks on delicate fabrics. They come configured with automatic thread trimmers and suction devices to immediately clear away fabric scraps.
Pegasus Flatbed Folding & Seaming Systems
For large, flat panels of fabric where heavy fabric manipulation is necessary, manufacturers deploy flatbed variations. [

- Pegasus W1500 / W500 Series (Folding & Flat Lock Configuration): These serve as standard workhorses in industrial hubs. While older or refurbished Pegasus W1500 units configured for folding operations can be acquired second-hand starting near 30,000 to 85,000, newer standard W500 flatlock variants generally run between 18,500 and 48,000 depending on the specific motor arrangement.
