Miti designed and assembled products in-house and subcontracted the leather cutting. However, outsourcing leather cutting resulted in a loss of control over quality and material consumption which, given the high quality of the hides, was very costly. These issues spurred Miti’s management team to consider overhauling its production processes to include leather cutting. The results of automatic nesting tests and Versalis’ high cut quality convinced Miti executives of the value a Versalis cutting room would bring.
Challenge
Miti wanted to gain control over hide consumption, reduce operational costs and ensure the quality of cut pieces by incorporating leather cutting into the in-house production process.
Solution
Lectra proposed the Versalis® automated leather-cutting solution, which enables the company to meet tight deadlines, ensure maximum hide efficiency and high quality cut pieces.
