Tajima Outline Processor:

Edition X supports a powerful Outline Processor that allows you to modify your designs to adjust their stitch count and other settings. With the outline processor, you can set a target stitch count (absolute or percentage) and the system will automatically adjust the values of settings for Fill (Tatami) and Satin density, Fill and Run stitch lengths, and Underlay Density. There are two modes for processing designs. In the Standard mode, the values of all settings are modified by the same proportion. For example if you set a target stitch count of 80%, the system will modify each setting value by 25%. In the Advanced mode, the system will modify each setting value by different percentages, with an effort to maintain overall stitch quality as close to the original design. To use the Outline Processor, follow the steps below:

  • Open an Outline based file by selecting File—Open
  • Select the segments you would like to work with using the Outline Processor or press CTRL + A to select all of the segments.
  • Select Tools—Outline Processor. You will see a dialog box similar to the one below

Pfaff Lockstitch Sewing Machine vs Operator / Supervisor:

The floors may some lines each which makes the total count of the lines to 15 in the whole unit. Since, in Bangladesh the labor cost is very low, therefore there are a lot of helpers in the lines and the automation is limited because of the same reason. That’s why one Pfaff lockstitch sewing machine is operated by one operator

The labor cost is around Tk.2400 ($34.3 or Rs.1800) per month, for a skilled operator as compared to Rs.2700 ($60 or Tk.3600) per month in India. Therefore, the automation is substituted by the use of intensive labor and the number of helpers per line is tremendously very much than most of the lines in India.

There are supervisors for each line who look after the production of the line and the proper working by the operators, in a way, supervisor is a face between the middle level management and the operators. The supervisors also take care of any problems faced by the operators and bring it to the notice of the middle level management, if needed.

Every floor has a floor manager who is assisted in his work by a junior manager and it is their responsibility to look after the production on the entire floor. The supervisors submit their hourly reports to them. The line balancing on the change of any style is also the responsibility of the floor managers.

There is a single production manager for all the 3 floors, and the floor managers report to him. It is the production managers who sees that which style has to be worked on which floor and which line and when.
