The automatic spreading technique is not a new technology in the fashion manufacturing industry. I have seen automatic spreading first time in the year 2005 when I was doing a college internship in Texport Syndicate (a garment manufacturing company) in Bangalore.
By using an auto spreader, garment many manufacturers have reduced manpower in the cutting room from 6 persons to 1-2 persons per cutting table (spreading activity). At the same cutting room, capacity is increased many times. Additionally, the most important thing, cutting quality has been improved.
A lot of technological advancement happened in the spreading machine too at the IoT (Internet of Things) era. Spreading statistic is available with the auto-spreader.
Know more about automatic fabric spreading machines and watch a video on auto spreading.
In this post, I have shared a list of automatic spreading machine brands and spreading machine solution providers. This list would be helpful to those who are planning to install an auto spreader in their cutting section.
Some of these spreaders I have seen in the garment factories, some in garment machinery exhibitions, and others found through online research. I have provided the website link to each solution provider. You can explore more about the automatic spreading machines on their websites.
