Textile industries across the world all understand the importance of having the right tools to get the job done in the best, most efficient way possible. At Sewn Products, we can help you find the perfect tools at affordable prices. Two of our most popular items are fabric end cutters and strip cutters because our customers understand that the biggest jobs require the most reliable tools  A good end cutter machine and a strip cutter machine will help you take your business to the next level. End cutters are used in cutting textiles quickly and accurately. Automatic machines can be calibrated to cut straight lines right where they need to be, and manual machines are set on guide rails so you can always get that clean, straight cut. no matter how long or how wide the fabric you are cutting, you will always be able to reach with the long handles on these machines. Most end cutters are table-mounted and sport a rotary blade, although there are some equipped with a straight blade so the speed of the blade can be adjusted. Your company’s needs will dictate which machine will work best for you.  Automatic strip cutting machines are used for cutting fabric into strips. The machine speeds up the cutting process while maintaining a clean, precise cut. These are some of the fastest cutters available and can be easily adjusted for the length of the cut or the height of the machine. Each of these excellent cutters will increase your factory efficiency and expedite every order you get. We can help you find the machine that best fits your needs. For those on a budget, manual machines may be your best bet. If you are looking to expand your business and grow your production, automatic machines are good investments for years to come.  Be sure you know what fabrics you will mainly be cutting with your machine, as different blades or speeds may be required for different materials. Non-woven fabrics are flexible and porous because they consist of multiple fiber layers, and each of the separate fibers may be oriented in different directions based on their manufacturing. The fibers are bonded by chemical, thermal, or mechanical processes, and they may not cut correctly without the right tool. Some non-woven fabrics can have the appearance of woven fabrics, so make sure you know what you’re dealing with before you make a final decision.
There are many industrial, non-woven materials beyond fabric to think of when choosing a machine, including: - Filters - Insulation - Packing materials - Roadbed stabilization sheeting - Road-building materials - Geo-textiles - Roofing products Give us a call! We’ll help you find the machine you’re looking for and get you the best price possible. let’s get the process started so you can start growing in your industry fast!

Have you ever been blown away by the creative artwork on a dress?  It is the work of a laser fabric cutter that makes these amazing details possible. Laser-cut fabrics are found often in the luxury apparel of high-end clothing stores, couture shops, and fashion runways. If you are looking to bring that same beauty and attention to detail to your clothing business, these automated fabric laser cutters are the tools for you. With its carbon dioxide glass laser and conveyor working table, there is no article of clothing you cannot cut or detail. Laser cutters cut fabric without any pressure applied to the fabric, and that ability ensures that the fabric is left without rough or fraying edges after the process. The machine emits a high-powered laser beam to either cleanly cut or etch a specific design on a range of materials from fabric to steel to plastic. The heat from the friction of this process is mitigated with a constant temperature water cooling system.  Some laser cutters also employ a vision system. This means there is a camera within the machine that scans the fabric to recognize the pattern or pick up printed registration marks, and then it sends the information to the cutter machine. The entire process is completely automated, and the overall cost of the system is less than other fabric cutters. It also allows the fabric to be sealed in the cutting process, and makes cutting fabric, wood, and plastic that much easier. There are many kinds of fabrics that can be cut by laser technology, including: ✔️ Cotton ✔️ Felt ✔️ Fleece ✔️ Denim ✔️ Lace ✔️ Linen ✔️ Polyester Silk ✔️ Acrylic ✔️ Alcantara ✔️ Softshell ✔️ And more! With a vision laser cutting system, there is no fabric you can’t turn into a beautiful, high-
quality piece of clothing fit for the runway. Watch your business soar!  Have you been using rotary machines to do your fiber glass cutting? Have you had difficulty with your machines getting fiberglass fibers stuck in the gears and ruining them? Maybe you just want to see the cutting edge fiber glass cutting equipment? If you do, we just made a new video showing off a brand new state-of-the-art piece of equipment. This machine:
For More information about this amazing machine, check out the Robuso Electric Scissors specs here: http://www.sewnproducts.com/robuso-electric-scissors.html
If you'd like to reach out to us about getting your very own set of Robuso Electric Scissors, contact us today! How do you cut a material that is supposed to be knife and bullet proof? With the right tools, it's not actually that complicated. Cutting through kevlar with the right tool is very doable.  Manual Ways to Cut KevlarThere are many ways to cut Fiber glass and Kevlar by hand. The most popular way of cutting fiberglass, crazy as it seems, is scissors. The best scissors that I have found are Kretzer Germany Steel Scissors.
This brand last for a very long time due to its high quality steel, plus Kretzer designed serrated blades specifically for fiberglass industry. This designed blades enables the operator to cut the material more efficiently while keeping the cut quality high. Motorized Tools to Cut KevlarDepending on your application there are different motorized tools that are designed for the Fiberglass industry. Here are the different power tools that I would recommend depending on the facility’s application (boat hauls, windmills, etc.): Trimming single or every low plyEastman Buzzaird (pneumatic) The Eastman Buzzard is a pneumatic driven rotary shear that reaches up to 20,000 RPM with high torque. This machine is designed for trimming single (or low) ply of material. You can see what I mean by trimming when you look at the video in the link above.  Rasor Optima 702 (electric- 110V or 220V)Rasor Optima 702/703 is an electrically driven rotary shear. It is a high torque motor, so it can power through really tough material.  Rasor Zero702 (Battery)Rasor Zero 702 is a battery operated rotary shear. It is the most powerful and robust battery rotary shear on the market. This machine has variable speed and it cuts fiberglass and kevlar like butter.  Multiply CuttingIf you are cutting multiple layers or cutting kevlar and fiberglass on a table, I would recommend Straight Knife to cut your kevlar. Eastman Brute is the heavy duty version of the Eastman Straight knife. It has more robust motor to add higher torque with the same RPM (3600 RPM). Having this type of cutting machine allows you to cut more material at the same time, while keeping the fiberglass away from the moving parts on the machine besides the knife. Fiberglass is a really abrasive material, so if it gets inside the machine (especially a moving part), it will bog down your machine and eventually break it. Check on the video in the link about to see what I mean by stack cutting or multiply cutting.  AutomatedThe best way to cut fiber glass automatic is by two ways: Cut to length machine or fully automated cutting machine. Automatic Cutting Machine The most efficient way to cut fiber glass and kevlar. This machine cuts fiberglass at amazing speeds with incredible accuracy. This system is designed to cut out any 2D shape on any material loaded into the bed of the cutter. They do have systems that also convey the material forward to make it even more efficient. Not only is the machine fast and accurate ,but it is so good for cutting fiberglass (depending on what type) because it uses a “crush style” cutting system to cut out the patterns. This helps certain fiberglass (not all) material from not fraying. These uses allow you to mark and punch the material also if needed.  Cut to Length If your operation just need your material to be cut into squares or rectangles, than the cut to length machine is the correct machine for your application. The machine is designed to unwind a roll of material and measure the material to length. Once it measure the material to length it performs a cross cut on the fiberglass material. Then you have a perfectly measured cut to length pc of material. This machine is fully customizable; slitters, conveyor belt, rerolling attachment and etc.  Once you are equipped with the right tools, the actual how to of cutting kevlar is pretty straight forward. We have been helping companies find the right tools for the job for years. If you are looking at getting into cutting fiber glass or kevlar, we would be happy to help you find the machine that suits you!   Have you ever watched Despicable Me?

In any manufacturing outfit, your productivity and yield are inextricably linked to your profitability. Investing in quality equipment can ensure that you maintain the kind of quality that can help you build a strong brand. It goes a long way towards maintaining quality and reducing the risk of waste. It ensures that you can manufacture in the kinds of volume that give you a competitive edge in a crowded market. And when you’re involved in, or thinking about getting into garment manufacture, this means investing in quality sewing machines.
Industrial sewing machines are different than traditional sewing machines in a number of key ways. Industrial sewing equipment is specifically built for long term, professional sewing tasks and is constructed with durability in mind, using more robust motors and parts. Traditional sewing machines might include nylon or plastic gears, but these are not suited to the rigors of industrial use. Industrial sewing machines' gears, connecting rods, housings and body are usually made from high-quality metals, like aluminum or cast iron. Whatever your needs, there’s a Richpeace sewing system for you Because your business’ productivity relies on the equipment you use, it’s important to choose a brand that you know you can trust. A brand that not only has a reputation for quality and reliability, but also offers a wide range of different sewing systems to suit your operation’s needs. This is why Richpeace is such a popular choice in the world of garment manufacture. You’ll find that whatever your needs, there’s a Richpeace sewing system to suit them. Let’s take a look at some of Richpeace’s sewing machines…  Artificial intelligence has been growing in popularity over the last few years. It feels like no matter where you turn, there's something with AI built into it. There's a big debate over artificial intelligence, with some people being worried that we might take things too far and create machines that can think freely beyond our commands. However, it clearly has some uses, particularly in the garment manufacturing industry. If you own a manufacturing factory, then you may be thinking about using artificial intelligence as part of your process. So, what are the pros and cons of this? Pro: It frees up people from mundane tasks. Your employees will doubtless have many jobs that they hate doing. They're boring, they take a long time, and it causes your employee's attention spans to waiver. The beauty of artificial intelligence is that it implements automation into the manufacturing process. Instead of a task taking half an hour, technology can do it in an instant. There's no need for your workers to force themselves through loads of mundane tasks as the AI can do it all for them. As a result, it gives your workers more time to focus on tasks that demand more creativity. This could potentially make them happier, raising employee satisfaction rates. Pro: Faster decision making. AI technology brings more speed to your garment manufacturing business. It can be utilized at different stages of the manufacturing process to make quicker decisions. Whether it is in a cutting machine that needs exact precision, over and over again, or in a folding machine that is folding all the garments that have been manufactured. Once that decision has been made on the precision of the cut, or the type of fold, it is done! The technology figures out what needs to be done, and does it. This all takes a split second, rather than having a human physically try and figure things out. As a consequence, actions are performed faster than ever before, speeding up the whole process. Pro: Personnel risk removal. Artificial intelligence removes the risks associated with your personnel. In essence, it gets rid of human errors. As humans, we're all guilty of making mistakes. One employee might be tired and miss something that completely ruins the manufacturing process and ends up costing you loads of money. AI doesn't make mistakes; it won't produce the same human errors. Ironically, the only time that AI doesn't work is when a human hasn't programmed it correctly! Pro: Machine learning. A considerable benefit of artificial intelligence is that it implements machine learning. For those that don't know, this refers to systems that can automatically learn and adapt - without being programmed. In essence, the AI will analyze all the data produced in your garment manufacturing factory, and use it to improve your performance. It learns how to do certain things more efficiently, so decisions can be made even quicker. The human alternative to this is having someone come in and provide a full-scale audit of your manufacturing process, then come up with ways to improve the weak points and boost efficiency. As you can imagine, using artificial intelligence is way more effective.  Con: Bad calls can be made worse
There are some downsides to artificial intelligence, and the main one is that it can make bad calls. This isn't a mistake as sorts, mainly because your AI is doing what it's programmed and thinks it's making the right decision. There's an example of this, but not from the manufacturing industry. A few years ago, there was a terrorist attack in Australia that led to hundreds of people trying to flee the scene as fast as possible. Their immediate reaction was to call Uber and book transport. The problem is that Uber uses artificial intelligence that recognizes when there's a spike in demand. When demand is high, prices go up - it's simple economics. But, the issue is that Uber ended up charging incredible fees for people fleeing a terrorist attack. It was seen as them taking advantage of the situation when really it was their AI making a bad call. That's the downside of bringing artificial intelligence into the manufacturing world; it's not aware of everything. AI can't sense things that it doesn't have access to. Imagine you start printing something offensive on a t-shirt, but you don't realize it. Your AI won't flag this up, it will just go through the normal process and print as many tees as you need. With a human, they can spot the offensive thing - or, say, an error - and stop the process before you waste loads of money manufacturing something that can't be sold. You see, there are more pros than cons, but the disadvantage is pretty significant. The reality is that artificial intelligence will become a substantial aspect of manufacturing factories in the future. Ideally, the best way to use this technology is to take advantage of the pros while ensuring you still have humans on-hand to negate the cons. People working with machines will lead to the best results!  In this article, we’re going to investigate what should factor in your decision when deciding between the two types of garment cutting machines from Eastman, the Eastman Automatic Garment Cutting Machine and the manual equivalent. Before getting into the nitty-gritty, (or should that be knitty-gritty?), it’s worth pointing out that both solutions are of exceptional quality. Eastman has been the go-to garment cutting machine company since 1888.  Why You Might Choose A Manual Cutting Machine Manual cutting machines, as the name implies, are hand-operated. They can perform a range of cuts and are an excellent way for companies and artisans to experiment with different cuts before deciding on final production designs. If you want to do any of the following, then it’s worth considering an Eastman Manual Garment Cutting Machine:
 Why You Might Choose An Automatic Cutting Machine
Automatic cutting machines take labor out of the equation and can make cuts with minimal human assistance. The downside is that they cost more than their manual counterparts and are much larger. You should consider an automatic Eastman garment cutting machine if you want to do any of the following:
Both types of machines are awesome in there own way. At the end of the day it will come down to which is better for your set up. Choose the one that best fits your situation. If you are not sure, and would like some help going into more depth on both of these machines, feel free to reach out to us! SPEC/Ahearn Denning Machines are equipment distribution companies for the soft goods industries. But why should you, as the end-user, purchase from us instead of directly from the manufacturer? There are a number of reasons and advantages to doing your business with a distributor - I'll highlight a few of them here.
1. Choice - As a distributor, we are able to look at your specific application, budget and ultimate production goals and recommend a machine, part or service that will best fit you and your needs, versus trying to push a solution based on a specific brand. 2. Price - Our market is extremely competitive and we HAVE to be priced properly to maintain our presence as a trustworthy supplier to the soft goods industries. As a result, you can often find better deals and pricing with us than you can with the manufacturer that sells at MSRP. 3. Customer Service - We are well aware of the many supplier choices that are available to our customers so we pay particular attention to our responsiveness, price and inventory to ensure that our customers receive swift responses to inquiries, on items that can be delivered promptly at a competitive price. 4. Experience - We are not focused solely on one process or brand. We have increased our line of offerings over the years to include everything from software and fabric roll management systems to folding and packaging systems - TO INCLUDE EVERYTHING IN BETWEEN. Spreading, Cutting, Sewing/Assembly, Unit Production Systems - you name it, we've been involved. When we visit customers to address a topic of concern, we're never looking at processes through a straw. Instead, because of our diverse range of offerings, we can take in the whole process to see if there are opportunities for improvement in the peripherals as well as for the topics at hand. From composite components for aircraft to T-shirts - windmill blades to suits - we're experienced in a plethora of manufacturing segments. The bottom line is - as a distributor we can draw from a wide range of solutions to find the answer for our customers - that must be priced competitively and supported by our team after the sale. When your company manufacturers apparel, furniture, or other items that require specialist equipment, mastering the procurement process is essential. One of the biggest decisions is whether to take a DIY approach or hire a consultant to help you acquire those items. In the vast majority of circumstances, the latter option is the best by solution by far – and Sewn Products Equipment Co. prove it. After all, we are committed to ensuring you get the best equipment, at the best price, for your application. Save Time  Getting the right equipment is vital, but it’s not the assignment that generates money for your business.

Buying with SPEC makes this a thing of the past as we’ll conduct the necessary research to find the best products and suppliers on your behalf. Save Money Every business decision is a financial decision. Taking the DIY approach may feel like saving money, but it’s a false economy. Aside from choosing the right solutions, we boast a huge network of contacts as well as excellent negotiation skills. It may even be possible for us to combine your order with another client's to secure a discount for everyone. Either way, choosing SPEC as your procurement consultant will bring financial rewards.
