Question:
I am trying to start up a very small salwar kameez factory in Bangladesh. I tried searching the web for the kinds of machines needed but could not find anything. Can you please help me with this? ... asked by Suleman.Answer:
For setting up a small factory you primarily need the following two machines for stitching salwar and kameez.1. Single needle lock stitch machine and
2. Overlock machine (Also called as interlock machine by tailors)
These machines are available in blackhead machine categories as well as in industrial sewing machine range. Industrial sewing machines are comparatively costlier than black head stitching machine.
If you want to attach button and make a buttonhole in the kameez using machines than you have to also buy these machines. These are called button attaching machine and buttonholing machine.
There are a lot of embroidery work and printing work is done on these products. You can outsource these value addition for your garments instead of installing embroidery machines.
For cutting fabric in bulk (multiple layers together) you can use round knife cutting machines instead of hand scissors.
