Automatization of garment factories: will the labor of foreign trade garment factories be reduced?

Automatization of garment factories: will the labor of foreign trade garment factories be reduced? With the vigorous development of China's garment industry, new technology of science and technology has gradually integrated into mechanization. Foreign trade clothing companies are actively using machines to replace labor in the factory. Establish automation equipment to shorten staff training time. In the past, the sewing process, which relied on a lot of manpower, was to sew the collar, pockets, sleeves and other fabrics into a piece of clothing, which is the most difficult part of the garment factory to automate. But the new technology will always make people stunned. Now, as long as the clothes are clipped in two plastic plates, the plastic plate is opened, and the sewing machine with the sewing route is set, the sewing work can be completed according to the route. On the cloth. JUKI, the world's largest sewing machine company, has developed a smart sewing machine that senses the sewing machine's thread and the sewing force. In the past, the sewing force must be adjusted manually by the master. However, after accumulating a large database, the novice can rely on the past data to complete the same work. The future data is accumulated enough, and the machine can automatically judge which kind of force to use according to the style of the clothes. Sewing workers are hard to find, and they have to be trained for a long time, and they are easy to be chased. With automated equipment now, staff training time can be greatly reduced. Director Ling, the director of a garment factory, said that after the sewing is completed, the manpower for hanging clothes is also saved. The automatic adjustment system will hang the clothes on the conveyor belt around the ceiling, and automatically complete the ironing and distribution. Data and cloud systems, precise control of the production process. Then big data and cloud systems will be imported, and after the garment factory has completed automation, the machine will start to accumulate data, which can help managers accurately calculate the number of seconds required for each process. For example, in the past, manpower sewing often caused employees to sew at different speeds or leave absences, resulting in delays in delivery.

However, the number of seconds required for each piece of clothing and each sewing program can be accurately calculated by sewing with automated equipment. Therefore, the time of the supplier's delivery and the ability to take over new orders, the manager can make more accurate judgments.

Since last year, the demand for automation equipment in China's garment factories has begun to “blowout”. Today, the clothing industry is basically full of business volume, and the industry is undergoing major changes. The change of the order mode has accelerated the rapid automation of the industrial automation garment industry. In addition to the continuous improvement of labor costs, the change of the order mode of the brand and the electricity business is also one of the reasons. In the past, brands had to wait for the return of the first-line sales team to know the sales situation. But nowadays, some companies have developed an instant online delivery system, which can collect which clothes are now more popular, and immediately detect the sales status of the products, and immediately add orders, which can also reduce inventory.

In addition, in the past, e-commerce practitioners in China, because of the large number of sellers on the network, caused the quality to be difficult to control. Therefore, electric business people began to cooperate directly with the factory, and even built a new generation of smart clothing factory, hoping to sell clothes directly to consumers, and also speed up the update of automated equipment.

At present, the key to the most difficult breakthrough in the automation of garment factories is that the robotic arm cannot grasp the "soft" fabric. It has tried vacuum suction, static electricity, acupuncture, etc., but there is no way to capture different fabrics at the same time. This is the biggest problem of automation at present.

China's garment industry automation has made some progress, and then through the data, hardware and software in tandem, the e-commerce online sales and factory automation production integration. Three years later, the garment factory that needs the most manpower in the manufacturing industry may not really see anyone.
