Juki Brings A.I. Power To The Reshoring Fashion Sewing Factory
Juki, recognised the unique challenges of fashion sewing during the pandemic, when the reshoring of sewing production is uppermost in many minds as importing becomes more costly and unreliable.
Facing these challenges, which involve keeping costs down and increasing efficiency, they have harnessed AI to help the emerging home fashion sewing sector, control, maintain and train, with their new JaNets and ShuHaRi systems.
JaNets is a Shop floor control system that allows the user to monitor all aspects of their production leading to substantial increases in overall efficiency
With industry 4.0 on everyone's mind and an ever-increasing demand for the digitalization of sewing production lines comes the latest innovation from Juki - JaNets: Juki Advance Network System.
This software system in combination with complementary hardware allows for unrivaled real-time tracking and monitoring of a production process.
With JaNets the user can meet the challenges of reducing cycle times, increasing productivity and delivering greater quality at a lower cost. Improving the effectiveness of production the user can elevate beyond their competition.
The free ShuHaRi app was designed to help JUKI sewing machine operators with daily maintenance of their machines, with step-by-step instructions available directly on their smartphones.
The paid e-learning program was created to educate individuals and groups in the sewing industry with different modules on training a sewing machine operator or management in sewing machine plants.
“The garment and manufacturing industries were amongst the hardest hit during the Covid-19 pandemic, and the shortage of qualified technicians and teachers in these fields has been a huge burden,” said Sebastian Vasquez, Juki America Manager. “If there is a silver lining to our current situation, it is that we are now in a new digital age, where machine maintenance is as simple as opening an app, and education is as easy as taking online courses. That is why we are pleased to offer the new ShuHaRi app and e-learning solutions for sewing machines operators and plant managers throughout the Americas.”
