Return To List

In the apparel manufacturing industry, Sewfree technology is rapidly emerging as a new favorite thanks to its unique advantages. From comfortable seamless underwear to performance-enhancing sportswear, and from weather-resistant jackets to breathable quick-dry T-shirts, Sewfree applications are becoming increasingly widespread—winning the favor of global consumers.

Sewfree

Consumers favor Sewfree garments primarily for their exceptional wearing experience. The seamless design eliminates the friction and discomfort caused by traditional stitches, allowing greater freedom of movement during daily wear or intense activities. It also enhances the garment’s overall aesthetics with smooth, minimalist lines that exude modern style. Moreover, the Sewfree structure improves durability by reducing seam wear and tear, extending the garment’s lifespan.

However, in the front-end cutting process of Sewfree production, hot melt adhesive film cutting has become a major challenge for many manufacturers. Limited by traditional cutting technologies, numerous factories struggle with low cutting efficiency and serious material waste. Although laser cutting machines are sometimes used, their inherent laser characteristics allow cutting only one layer per pass. For enterprises focused on mass production and fast delivery, this single-layer cutting mode significantly restricts lead times and undermines market competitiveness.

Against this backdrop, GBOS, backed by deep technical expertise and a spirit of innovation, launched the VC9-1612 Intelligent Oscillating Knife Cutting System — a digital blade cutting solution specifically designed for hot melt adhesive film cutting. This system delivers a perfect solution for multi-layer hot melt film cutting, redefining efficiency and precision in Sewfree manufacturing.

01 Multi-layer Hot Melt Film Cutting — A Leap in Efficiency

The VC9-1612 Intelligent Oscillating Knife Cutting System offers powerful multi-layer cutting capabilities, enabling simultaneous cutting of up to 12 layers of hot melt adhesive film in a single pass. Compared with the single-layer cutting mode of traditional laser machines, it significantly increases throughput within the same time frame, achieving a quantum leap in production efficiency. Moreover, the cut edges are smooth and clean, perfectly meeting the seamless bonding requirements of high-density smooth fabrics, ensuring superior garment quality.

02 Say Goodbye to Cutting Misalignment — Enjoy Worry-free Precision Positioning

In traditional apparel manufacturing, manual alignment and marking were indispensable steps — yet time-consuming, labor-intensive, and prone to human error, often compromising garment quality and consistency. The VC9-1612 eliminates these challenges by performing multiple processes independently without the need for multiple machines, making it adaptable to various production categories. It is equipped with projection positioning, an optional pen plotting device, and an intelligent nesting system, ensuring precise alignment, material efficiency, and seamless workflow integration.

The projection positioning system accurately projects designs onto the material, enabling fast and precise alignment. The optional pen plotting device assists in marking, providing accurate guidance for the next process. Meanwhile, the intelligent material-saving nesting system automatically optimizes layouts based on the material’s size and shape, minimizing waste and maximizing efficiency.

Take sportswear production as an example: precise positioning and layout ensure that every garment part maintains accurate dimensions and shapes, enhancing the fit and comfort of the finished sportswear.

03 Empowering Apparel Manufacturers to Optimize Production and Achieve Holistic Growth

As Sewfree technology becomes increasingly widespread in the apparel industry, the performance of production equipment plays a critical role in achieving optimal results. The VC9-1612 enhances efficiency through multi-layer cutting and ensures precision with its projection positioning system, delivering significant improvements in production capacity, quality control, and cost management for apparel manufacturers.

In terms of production capacity, the highly efficient multi-layer cutting capability enables manufacturers to complete more tasks in less time, meeting the rapidly growing market demand for Sewfree garments.

In terms of quality control, precise positioning and cutting ensure consistent garment quality, reduce defect rates, and enhance brand reputation.

In terms of cost control, the intelligent material-saving nesting system effectively reduces material waste, improves equipment utilization, and lowers overall production costs.

For outdoor jacket manufacturers, the optimized production process enhances efficiency, ensures product quality, and reduces production costs, giving companies a competitive edge in a highly challenging market.

With the support of the VC9-1612, Sewfree garments are set to shine even brighter in the market, offering consumers more high-quality and comfortable wearing options.

  • On social media, curious consumption scenes often appear:A lady flaunts her Hermès Birkin bag to showcase luxury, yet orders no-name tissues online; an outdoor enthusiast wears an Arc’teryx hardshell jacket, but charges their phone with a 9.9-yuan data cable. At first glance, this seems contradictory—but it reflects a rising trend: brand value separation. 1. Why Is Brand Value Starting to Separate? The core driver of this trend is the demystification and openness of supply chains. In the past, consumers had little knowledge about which factory produced a certain pair of jeans or which supplier crafted the leather for luxury shoes. Today, however, supply chain transparency has transformed what used to be “exclusive formulas” into “public recipes” that are easily accessible. This shift erodes the monopoly of tangible brand value. When products can be replicated quickly, consumers no longer pay premiums for material exclusivity alone. But does this mean brands are destined to fail? Absolutely not.Instead, it eliminates the bubble and pushes brands back to the essence of value creation—building deeper, harder-to-replicate barriers. 2. How Can Brands Rebuild Value Barriers? The most direct approach is to excel in tangible value, creating technological barriers that ensure: What others don’t have, we provide....

  • In the manufacturing sectors of shoes, luggage, automotive interiors, and sofa furniture, enterprises are increasingly challenged by high labor costs, low efficiency, and unstable precision in mass production. These persistent pain points have become major “stumbling blocks” for businesses striving to gain a competitive edge in the market. From the heavy reliance on skilled workers for sorting cut pieces to inefficient cutting processes that can’t keep up with order demands — and from excessive leather waste driving up costs to cluttered work areas caused by leftover materials — these issues not only restrict production capacity but also hinder overall competitiveness. 01. Bottlenecks in Traditional Mass Production In the shoe manufacturing industry, traditional production lines require significant manual labor to sort and handle cut pieces. Each skilled worker can only process a limited volume daily, and fatigue from long hours often leads to sorting errors, resulting in costly rework in later stages. In luggage production, manual positioning during leather cutting introduces variability, as different workers have distinct operation habits. This inconsistency leads to inaccurate cuts, material waste, and additional costs to correct defective products. Furthermore, the absence of efficient marking systems in traditional workflows makes it difficult to identify and match...
