Leather, hides, extreme thicknesses: the Texi Triple Transport that knows no limits

Pelle, cuoio, spessori estremi: la Texi Triplice Trasporto che non conosce limiti

There are machines that do what they're supposed to. And then there are machines that make you want to find something difficult to sew, just to see how far they can go.

The Texi Triple Transport is one of those.
Flatbed or cylinder arm, it's built for those who work with heavy materials (leather, thick canvas, technical materials) but with a price and ease of use that make it accessible even to hobby sewers who don't want to compromise on materials.

Triple Transport: Why it makes a difference

If you've never worked with a triple transport machine, the first time you use it, you immediately understand what you've been missing.
The difference compared to a normal machine or even one with only top feed, is in how the fabric advances during sewing.

With triple transport, the material is moved simultaneously from three points: the feed dogs below, the upper foot, and the needle itself. The result is that even on significant thicknesses, even on hard and slippery materials like leather, the fabric advances evenly, without jamming, without slipping, without skipping stitches. You don't have to push, you don't have to pull, you don't have to correct.
The machine does its job and you can concentrate on the sewing.

It's the right mechanism for those who work on:

  • Leather and synthetic leather
  • Hides and hard materials
  • Canvas, technical fabrics, multiple layers
  • Bags, belts, car seat covers, leather goods
  • Any job where the thickness changes along the seam

9 mm stitch: not a detail, it's a feature

One of the things that immediately strikes you about the Texi Triple Transport is the stitch length: it goes up to 9 mm. Almost a centimeter of stitch for each pass.

On a material like thick leather, with a robust thread, a 9 mm stitch is not only functional, it's aesthetic. It's what you see on quality bags, on handmade straps, on leather details that you want to be seen. Not a hidden seam, but a seam that is part of the design.

And if you need millimeter precision instead? The machine has that too.

Three needle stop modes:

  • Needle down (most used): the machine always stops with the needle in the fabric; you can turn, correct, resume without losing the stitch
  • Free mode: you can advance half a stitch at a time, with millimeter precision, for maximum precision seams
  • Needle up: the machine stops with the needle out of the fabric; less used, but available

Gianluca clearly states: needle-down mode is the one he always recommends.

It gives you total control without having to think about it.

Significant clearance: four layers of leather, no problem

The presser foot lift is one of the parameters that those who have never worked with heavy materials tend to underestimate. On a standard machine, two layers of leather can already become a problem. On the Texi Triple Transport, four layers of hard leather pass under the presser foot with ease.

It's not a laboratory test, it's what happens every time you sew a reinforced bag, a double belt, a lining on structured material. The machine moves up and down over thicknesses without jamming, without slowing down, without requiring manual intervention.

Two versions: flatbed or cylinder arm

The Texi Triple Transport is available in two configurations with the same mechanics and the same performance:

Flatbed • TEXI RAM 

The classic version, ideal for most flat surface jobs: flat bags, belts, linings, light upholstery, any stitching on material that lays flat on the work surface.

Cylinder Arm • Texi RAM C-A Premium 

The free arm is essential when you need to sew inside tubular or cylindrical shapes: structured bags, clutches, handles, holsters, any object where you need to reach a point that a flatbed cannot approach.
The mechanics are identical; only the geometry of the work surface changes.

If you primarily work on bags or three-dimensional leather goods, the cylinder arm is not an option; it's the right choice.

Who this machine is really for

The Texi Triple Transport is not a machine "only for professionals." It is a machine for anyone who wants to work with heavy materials without sacrificing the quality of the result, whether it's an artisan workshop, a passionate leather hobbyist, or someone who wants to start working with leather without starting with compromised equipment.

Its affordable price for what it offers places it in an accessible range even for those who don't use it eight hours a day.
And the simplicity of the controls (stitch length, alternating presser feet, stop mode) means you don't have to be a technician to use it well.
