Zipper Tape Ironing Machine

A zipper, zip, fly, or zip fastener, formerly known as a clasp locker, is a commonly used device for binding together two edges of fabric or other flexible material.The concept of a zipper got its start when an American, Elias Howe, earned a patent in 1851 for his Automatic Continuous Clothing Closure.The zipper not only makes it more convenient to fasten clothing, but plastic zippers are also wind, dust and waterproof, and don't snag, stick or rust. The invention of plastic zippers also meant they could be created in any colour, making then another tool in the fashion designers arsenal.
