Imbali yeOomatshini bokuThumela, imihla emva ukuya kwinkulungwane ye-16. Oomatshini bokuqala abatyumkileyo babeyincwadana yemigaqo, kwaye kwakungekho kude kube yinkulungwane ye-19umatshini wokuhambisawaqanjwa.
Ngo-1816, okokuqalaumatshini wokuhambisawanyuswe nguSamuel. Umatshini wawusekwe kwisakhelo setyhula kwaye waquka uthotho lwamagwegwe anokushenxiswa ekujikeleze isakhelo sesakhelo sokuvelisa isitshixo. Umatshini wokujikeleza kwesetyhula yayiluluvo olubonakalayo kwiinaliti ezibambe ngesandla, njengoko inokuthi ivelise iziqwenga ezininzi ezinkulu zelaphu kwinqanaba elikhawulezayo.
Kule minyaka ilandelayo, umatshini ojikelezayo waphuhliswa, kunye nophuculo kwisakhelo kunye nokongezwa kweendlela ezinzima ngakumbi. Ngo-1847, i-curicoter yokuqala eyenziwe ngoomatshini i-Tricoter yaphuhliswa nguWilliam Coatton eNgilani. Lo matshini wayekwazi ukuvelisa izambatho ezigqityiweyo, kubandakanya iisokisi, iigloves kunye nesitokhwe.
Ukuphuhliswa koomatshini bokuThintela i-Asithi Beft Ender Band uqhubeke kwinkulungwane ye-19 neye-20, ngenkqubela phambili ekhethekileyo kwitekhnoloji yoomatshini. Ngo-1879, umatshini wokuqala onokwazi ukuvelisa ilaphu elirhafiweyo lenziwe, elivumele iintlobo ezahlukeneyo ezivelisiweyo kwiilaphu.
Ebudeni benkulungwane yokuqala, i-Máquina de tejer isetyhula yaphuculwa ngokongezwa kweenkolelo zolawulo lwe-elektroniki. Oku kuvumeleke ukubaluleka nokuchaneka kwinkqubo yemveliso kwaye kwavula amathuba amatsha kwiindidi zendwangu ezinokuveliswa.
Kwisiqingatha sokugqibela senkulungwane yama-20, oomatshini bokutyibilika kwekhompyutha baphuhliswa, nto leyo evumela ukuba sichanekile kwaye silawule kwinkqubo yokutyibilika. Olu matshini lungacwangciswa ukuvelisa uluhlu olubanzi lweelaphu kunye neepateni, zibethelela kakhulu kwaye ziluncedo kumzi mveliso wendwangu.
Namhlanje, oomatshini bokuThengiswa ngokujikelezayo basetyenziswa ukuvelisa uluhlu olubanzi lweelaphu, ukusuka kwilaphu elihle, iilaphu ezikhaphukhaphu ukuya kwilaphu elinzima, ilaphu elisetyenziswa kwi-Outlewear. Basetyenziswa ngokubanzi kumzi-mveliso wefashoni ukuvelisa iimpahla, kunye nasekhaya lezixhobo zekhaya ukuba zivelise iingubo, iibhedi zebhedi, kunye nezinye izinto zasekhaya.
Ukuqukumbela, uphuhliso lweUmatshini wokuThumela umjikeloibiyinkqubela phambili ebalulekileyo kumzi-mveliso wendwangu, uvumele ukuveliswa kweendwangu ezikumgangatho ophezulu kwinqanaba elikhawulezayo kunangaphambili. Ukuqhubeka kophuhliso lwetekhnoloji emva komatshini wesetyhula kuvulele amathuba amatsha kwiindidi ezinokuveliswa, kwaye kunokwenzeka ukuba le teknoloji iza kuqhubeka ivela kwaye iphucule kwiminyaka ezayo.
