Understanding Spreading Modes for Different Fabric Types
The modes of marker making and spreading are essential concepts in apparel mass production, where garment symmetry and fabric symmetry affect the selection of marker modes as well as the methods of spreading and cutting. These factors affect the cost of the product as well. To define marker making and spread modes, we use specific… Continue reading Understanding Spreading Modes for Different Fabric Types
CHECK OUT THESE NEW RV FEATURES TO LOOK FOR IN 2021
The year 2020 will go down in history for more reasons than conceivable. With that said, 2020 was truly remarkable for the RV industry. People still wanted to travel, but safely, and they do not consider traditional modes for travel and vacation like airlines and cruise ships safe.

Converter Round Up
Converting companies are an integral part of the nonwovens supply chain. For all of the advantages the industry’s products provide, a lot has to happen prior to their end use. Nonwovens need to be cut into a variety of shapes and sizes, scaled down to become a single-use product, as well as printed, packaged and… Continue reading Converter Round Up
Automated Cutting & Sewing Developments
An apparel product is a consumer good with a large number of fragmented supply chains. It starts with fiber selection, proceeds to yarn and fabric production, and ends in apparel manufacturing. In many cases, several additional sectors are involved in finishing the final product, which may include trims, findings, embroidery, leather and other fashion accessories.… Continue reading Automated Cutting & Sewing Developments
How Does Sound Deadening Work in a Vehicle?
Most mobile audio enthusiasts know that sound deadening is an important part of a car audio system upgrade. This simple material will not only reduce the amount of road and wind noise that you hear, but it can dramatically improve the performance of your audio system. Let’s take a close look at how common sound… Continue reading How Does Sound Deadening Work in a Vehicle?
Spotlight on Spunlace
With the spread of the Covid-19 pandemic still raging on around the world, demand for wipes—especially disinfecting and hand sanitizing wipes—remains high, which has sparked high demand for the materials that make them such as spunlace nonwovens. Spunlace or hydroentangled nonwovens in wipes consumed a projected total of 877,700 tons of material worldwide in 2020.… Continue reading Spotlight on Spunlace
Modular cutting and stacking system advances flexible, fully automated operations
When combined with CAD-based pattern design and advanced nesting software, digital (computer-controlled) cutting systems for composites enable fabricators to not only reduce material waste and costs — even with complex-shaped parts — but also reduce cutting time from days (when done manually) to minutes, lowering cycle time and increasing repeatability and reproducibility (R&R). Still, given… Continue reading Modular cutting and stacking system advances flexible, fully automated operations
Cornell team develops machine with aim of ending textile waste
The average American goes through roughly 70 pounds of clothing each year, creating approximately 21 billion pounds of clothing sent to landfills – 5% of all landfill waste, according to the Council for Textile Recycling. A multidisciplinary Cornell design and research team has developed a unique fabric-shredding machine in hopes of a zero-waste solution for… Continue reading Cornell team develops machine with aim of ending textile waste
Difficult Materials Make Automated Fabric Cutting More Indispensable than Ever
If you work with Kevlar, carbon fiber or other high performance reinforcement materials, you know what’s going on in the supply chain. Materials are more expensive and difficult to obtain that ever before. That requires fabricators to cut more accurately, efficiently and predictably than ever before. How well a fabricator manages its materials is key… Continue reading Difficult Materials Make Automated Fabric Cutting More Indispensable than Ever
