3. Reinforce Stress Areas When sewing seams that will experience a lot of stress, such as corners of bags or harnesses, consider reinforcing them with additional stitching or bar tacking to enhance durability.

4. Motor Power Industrial machines typically come with more powerful motors than domestic ones. A machine with a strong motor can handle heavy-duty sewing tasks without overheating or losing performance.
