Electronic cloth cutting and laying-up

Some innovations in cloth cutting and laying-up have been done in the sewing industry. An electronic spreader and electronic cutter are known to be in use in the sewing industry. Let us see how they work.

These units make cutting and spreading completely automatic and could almost do away with manual oper­ation. The machines work on a photo-electric principle. The electronic cloth cutter is controlled by three cells, for left, right and horizontal control. It travels above the cutting table and automatically cuts out a pattern and shuts itself off.

The electronic cloth cutting machine also includes a closed-circuit television camera that will permit multi-machine monitoring. The machine has variable speeds and can handle all straight-knife operations. The automatic spreader can lay 2000 yards an hour. The spreader carries at an average 10 rolls of material and lays down coloured fabric in areas of the table designated by photo cells, according to command on a keyboard.

You could turn the machine on when you left for the night, and in the morning all your cutting would be done.
