There are various ways to attach ribs. But the most productive way of attaching rib is to make a roll of ribs and use a binder to attach rib at neck and sleeve hems.
To make a roll of rib there is automatic rib cutting machine as well as mechanical machines.
An automatic rib cutting machine helps to get the roll of ribs. An operator needs to feed the cloth roll into the machine and specify the rib width. machine operator needs to guide the fabric. This machine cut fabric a specified width and winded up into a roll automatically.
