We tend to consider our investment in the category of high costs, while the main reason for each investment is the expected benefits that it will bring. In considering the purchase of a cutting system it is well worth to look at the advantages side of this investment. What do manufacturers who already use high-tech solutions – such as the Lubawa-based LIBRO company – take into account? Were the fears they had prior to purchase confirmed? Or just the opposite – no one now imagines cutting upholstery fabrics in a traditional way anymore?

Manufacturer of upholstered furniture, the Libro company of Lubawa bet on diversity and high product quality already years ago. It begun its search for innovative technologies that could help it achieve high product quality and increase the speed of work. The Libro company choose Allcomp Polska, the Polish manufacturer of the UNICUT automated fabric cutting system, as its business partner.

After introduction of UNICUT sizing and cutting devices we experienced a huge technological leap. Prior to that all cutouts were preformed manually. Modern technological lines changed everything in cutting shop. “Thanks to the Allcomp Polska machinery the manufacturing time was largely reduced” – stresses Andrzej Knoblauch – production manager.

Among the benefits that the Libro company draws from using modern cutting technologies is also the exclusion, by machines, of a range of errors that are impossible to eliminate in manual cutting processes, thus securing high precision and preservation of very high quality of cutting lines, and in the end the final product of extremely high standard. One of the most important profits is the saving of material, that the advanced computer technology of nesting allows for. The UNICUT technology also largely improves cutout quality. Previously, with manual cutting, there were differences in sizes of top and bottom layers in multi-layer cutouts. Currently the high precision of cutout elements guarantees their perfect fitting in sewing stage.

What was important for the Libro company in choosing their business partner were also the questions of machine servicing and access to spares. Taking this into account the investment was successful. As the Andrzej Knoblauch says – “These machines are easy to operate. We have convenient access to spares and consumables. The Allcomp company also offers quick service and online technical support”.

Nowadays no one remembers the “age of manual cutting” at Libro anymore. The company bets on development and constant pursue of its vision.
