If you want to open your own sewing production, then you need to take into account many nuances.
For example, you will need to purchase furniture, learn how to use program projectors. And most importantly, you will have to very carefully choose cutting equipment for sewing production.
Is it worth it to open a business?
Now you need to figure out whether your business will be profitable. In principle, it all depends on the market. If there is no sewing production in your region, and you can also find equipment, fabrics and all the necessary accessories at an affordable price, then you can try to open a small workshop.
Please note that you will have to pay for the room and electricity. Although there is a mechanical apparatus, the operation of which does not require any power sources. It is still necessary to take care of good lighting.
You can reduce the cost of production somewhat if you use cutting-out equipment for second-hand sewing production. Naturally, it should be well-tuned and effective. You can produce any one type of product (robe, sewing gloves and mittens) or several. If the demand for your product is large, then all costs will be more than paid off, and you can expand your factory.
Features of the choice of cutting machines
The main task of the equipment presented is cutting the fabric according to the pattern, as well as completing the cut from the main, lining and applied materials. It is on such equipment that you spend the maximum amount of money. Naturally, it is better if the machines are mechanized or automated. This will reduce manufacturing time and financial costs.
It should be noted that there are cutting equipment for sewing production of several types:
- Electric. In this case, the cutting of the fabric is carried out using a spark or heated wire.
- Mechanical This group is the largest. Equipment requires human involvement. In this case, the work can be automated or manual. In addition, such equipment often has additional capabilities. And the equipment can be mobile or stationary.
- Hydraulic
- Thermophysical. This type of device is not numerous, since the cost of the machines is quite high. This is due to the fact that a plasma or a laser beam is used to cut the material. Although this method of cutting is very accurate and accurate. Moreover, the threads at the edges do not crumble.
Which cutting equipment for sewing production is up to you to decide, but at first mechanical devices are perfect.
Features of sewing machines
Now we should consider those devices that are designed to connect the details of the pattern. Such equipment should be chosen very carefully. Otherwise, it will break quickly, which will negatively affect the quality of finished products and the timing of orders.
Modern sewing machines for production can perform a huge number of functions. Naturally, they are not cheap. In any case, if you open a small workshop, then mechanical and electromechanical sewing machines are quite enough for you. Then you can improve your equipment.
Today, there are machines that can perform several dozen functions. That is, you do not have to buy a large number of different devices. Such devices are called electronic.That is, you do not have to turn the levers on a typewriter. Simply set a program that determines the thread tension, type of stitch and speed.
What is CAD?
In order to establish high-quality and fast production, you need various patterns. Manually designing them takes a very long time. Therefore, it is better to use special graphic editors that do this very quickly. For example, the CAD program for sewing production allows you to prepare models and lay out patterns if you are engaged in the mass production of clothes.
Thanks to the presented program, you can not only speed up the factory. You will have the opportunity to check the patterns, see the appearance of the finished model on the screen. The program takes into account even the smallest nuances: cut, tucks, folds and others.
What kind of furniture is needed for work?
In order to equip a full-fledged workshop, not only equipment is necessary. You will need furniture. First of all, you need tables on which machines will be located, and around - chairs for seamstresses.
This furniture should be convenient and comfortable, ergonomic, to reduce the degree of fatigue of employees and the load on the spine. Moreover, the tables can be equipped with additional drawers in which threads and accessories will be stored.
You will also need hangers, cabinets, mannequins and other designs (for storing fabrics, hanging clothes). Furniture for clothing manufacture must be functional, convenient and safe. Good luck
