In our everyday lives, we see sweater products in shops and online, with varying prices. The majority of branded products' sweaters are nearly identical to those of non-branded ones, but the prices are vastly different. We'll start our discussion of why branded sweaters cost more than the average one based on this subject.
Let's first examine a fine sweater factory, its operations, and its procedures:
Let's discuss the fundamental idea behind the computer flat knitting machine used for sweater knitting. Imported and domestic computer flat machines typically come in two varieties, with imports being more expensive and domestic machines being more affordable. The difference in the number of yarn mouths between the two determines the specific performance, which is roughly interpreted as more yarn mouths for the more expensive yarn. How many thread groups can enter the woven object at once is known as the "yarn mouth." More complex patterns and color combinations can be created on a single piece of clothing as the yarn mouth increases.
Computer flat knitting machines can be broadly classified into 3 needle, 5 needle, 7 needle, 9 needle, 12 needle, 14 needle, and 16 needle types. The larger the needle species, the more delicate the woven clothing, so naturally, the time will be longer, and the yarn used will be finer.
In contrast to woven products, sweaters are made of yarn that is woven into pieces of woolen fabric that are then stitched together to create clothing. Clothes made from woven products are created by cutting and straightening cloth. The two procedures are totally dissimilar;
The computer flat knitting machine and the plate sewing machine both use the same type of stitch. The stitch height determines how delicately the object will be sewn. There hasn't been a technological advancement in disk stitching for the wool sector yet. Essentially, one person and one machine manually operate it. Now that seamless machines are out on the market, they can only perform a few incredibly basic tasks and cannot yet fully replace manual labor.
Highlight: Nowadays, a lot of wool-woven products on the market employ a bone-tying machine instead of stitching, which costs less than one-tenth as much.
Heat is used throughout the washing process to soften the goods. After being sewn, the newly woven wool is fairly hard, and after being washed and dried, it feels comfortable on the skin. The feel of the clothing will vary depending on the amount of time spent washing, drying, and soaking it. The washing process is particularly important for moulding the density of woolen garments, as certain items would utilize soft oil or depressive oil while washing water.
Note: Some goods with cheaper prices skip this step.
Products for embroidering patterns on sweaters are referred to as embroidery products. We discover that the price of sweater embroidery or printing products will be higher during the daily sales process, but the woven products won't be as evident. The primary indicator of the cause is the additional precursor procedure to support embroidery process production.
Wool-woven products should not be washed before sewing, and washing does not set the tissue density of the products. Direct embroidery is not yet possible. Therefore, the sweater should be stitched and washed before embroidering or printing it. After that, the staff should be set up to manually unclamp the sweater (i.e., take out the stitching lines on both sides of the sweater) so that it can be divided and laid flat on the embroidery or printing workbench for production. It is vital to continue sewing and ironing once the embroidery or printing procedure is finished.This back and forth, barely discernible increase in costs resulted in higher product prices being charged for sale.
Due to their softness, wool goods are naturally unstable during manufacture. The factory must create an ironing board that is set by the manufacturing size to iron the plate and set at a high temperature while ironing garments made of wool knitting. For woven-type items, there is no requirement for this component.
The main procedure is finished, and control is in place, so the beautiful sweater is fine. The final check typically consists of the following four steps:
Initial inspection: Preliminary inspection
Clothes mending: To determine whether there are quality issues that need to be fixed; this is a highly technical task that requires a masterful fill-out; we cannot detect traces.
Review: To thoroughly examine the original and repaired products;
General inspection: verify the products' surface before packaging to make sure their look is acceptable;
The packaging process comes last. Making tags and packaging bags is the primary task involved in the production and packaging of wool.
