Eastman Automatic Garment Cutting Machine Vs. Eastman Manual Garment Cutting Machine

3/27/2019

0 Comments

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:

  • To create one-of-a-kind samples
  • To prototype a product
  • To quickly correct faults in a garment by hand, such as making buttonholes
  • To create intricate patterns.

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:

  • Make full production runs
  • Make partial production runs
  • Create a range of high-accuracy prototypes
  • Are using angled cuts
  • Make cuts of custom-width and length
  • Deliver high precision cutting
  • Want to save on labor costs

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!

The Advantage of Purchasing from a Distributor

3/15/2019

3 Comments

 
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.
