Abstract

A sewing machine speed control apparatus enabling finer control of sewing machine rotational speed by providing speed instructive pulses to a clutch coil and a braking coil of the sewing machine within a pulse application period of an oscillator used to detect the actual rotational speed of the sewing machine. The speed instructive pulses are applied in accordance with a difference between actual and desired speeds; the difference is used to look up stored values corresponding to desired periods of application of speed instructive pulses.
