2) Artificial Guide
This guide will help the operator to stitch correctly at a distance of more than 1
inch from the edge. It’s a very economical method to make a guide.
3) Elastic Insertion
This was a very interesting tool we have seen in the factory. Inserting an elastic
string in a pajama was very laborious and time consuming. This tool is savings a
lot of time and energy of the employees. Usually it takes more than one and half
minute to put a string in a pajama but with this tool one can finish 4 pcs in a
minute.

They were using LED
right above the needle
bar, where the operator
needs the maximum light.
This reduces a lot of
electricity cost of the
factory.
8. 6) Pattern Tracing:
They were using a butter paper sheet, to trace the stitching pattern on the ply.
The liquid they using was a mixture Colgate power and water, as it was the
easiest to remove.

7) Using stencils/templates to give shapes and creasing
The operator was using a stencil/template to make crease of the respective part
of the garment. And then he/she can iron it.

9. 8) Sticking measuring templates
They use to stick a measuring template right on the table top of the machine. So
the operator does not have to use the inch tape to measure the part. This also
saved a lot of time.
