There are many factors that affect your material consumption rate and cut quality such as fabric ply height, roll width, markers, cutting equipment capabilities and the number of folds. Due to infinite combinations of these factors, cutting room operators have to manually adjust each variant to achieve the optimal result. Establishing a standard operating procedure has become increasingly complex with the demand for more product variety.
