From May 22 to 24, 2018, the Georgia World Congress Center in Atlanta, Georgia was the place to connect with leading manufacturers of materials, machinery, and sewn products. The Atlanta event was also where Industry 4.0 stopped being just another marketing buzzword.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>New Textile Technologies<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/hold-true.com\">Hold-True<\/a>, a manufacturer of sewn fabric products, visited <a href=\"https:\/\/10times.com\/techtextil-north-america\">Techtextil North America<\/a> to connect with companies across the supply chain. Along the way, we learned about several Industry 4.0 technologies that could change the way textiles are made. From shop floor software to advanced sewing systems, Industry 4.0 or Factory 4.0 is turning the Internet of Things (IoT) into something you won\u2019t want to miss.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>BlueCherry Shop Floor Control \u00a0\u00a0<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cgsinc.com\/en\/bluecherry\/shop-floor-control\">BlueCherry Shop Floor Control (SFC)<\/a> from CGS Inc. automates the collection and reporting of production activities as they occur. An actionable intelligence dashboard and wireless operator app provide managers with aggregated data for proactive instead of reactive decision making. According to the company\u2019s website, BlueCherry SFC provides up to 200% in piece-work operator performance.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Qondac Networks and the Commander CSP Operating Panel<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.qondac.com\/\">Qondac Networks<\/a> manages sewing machines in real-time and digitizes a manufacturer\u2019s service and maintenance processes. This production monitoring system also allows manufacturers to compare plants, lines, and operator performance using a personalized dashboard. The digitized sewing system integrates with the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=EnBPdScxuEc\">Commander CSP smart operating panel<\/a>, where operators can watch tutorials or call a technician.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>The JUKI DDL-9000C Series <\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=2GnAaQtt2RA&amp;feature=youtu.be\">The JUKI DDL-9000 CFMS<\/a> is a direct-drive, high-speed sewing system with an automatic thread trimmer. Digitized feed mechanisms let operators make necessary adjustments from a control panel and store their settings. In factories that sew different types of materials, the use of stored settings can help promote consistent seam quality.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Industry 4.0 Beyond Techtextil<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Techtextil North America provided members of the technical textiles and non-wovens industry with a glimpse of things to come. Shop floor data collection systems aren\u2019t new, of course, but Industry 4.0 is applying the power of computing in ways that will support real-time decision making. With sewing machines, IoT connections and digitization will replace analog settings for greater ease and accuracy.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Sewn Fabric Dunnage<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>As a leading manufacturer of sewn fabric dunnage, Hold-True will continue to monitor Industry 4.0 and its effects on the technical textile and non-wovens industry. In the meantime, we invite you to <a href=\"https:\/\/hold-true.com\/contact\/\">request our white paper<\/a>, \u201cThe Future of Packaging\u201d, for an analysis by a pair of packaging experts.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Techtextil North America is the largest tradeshow for technical textiles and non-wovens in the western hemisphere.
