Super speed stitching and finishing from Group101
Group101 turns to Atech for a super high end sewing and finishing solution, thus enabling them to keep up with the ever growing demands of their clients.
Over the last 24 months Group101 has gone from strength to strength. Earlier this year a staggering 500k has been invested into new plant and machinery, in order to not only meet client demands, but also to exceed their expectations. One of their latest investments include the installation of a Matic Cronos Ultimate sewing machine within their finishing department.
More than just a standard sewing machine the Matic allows the team to dramatically reduce production time, whilst outputting high quality finished products at a fraction of the time it took previously. With auto feeding and cutting of Velcro and keder along with a selection of guides, we can quickly and reliably output work with minimal operator involvement.
Managing Director James said, “The machine is so easy to use that within 30 mins someone who has never sewed before can be up and running the machine, finishing live jobs” It’s all about making our production as stream lined and lean as possible and ensuring we deliver a quality product each and every time.
I was a little sceptical at first and wasn’t convinced in spending in excess of £30k on a sewing machine would be at all worth it. After spending some time with Alan, the Managing Director at Atech, I was soon convinced this was the solution for us, being invited out to FESPA 2017 and seeing the machine in a live environment really did seal the deal for me.

Thanks for a great write up Rob!

No problem James, and great to see you investing in yet more of the latest equipment to your list. :thumbsup:

Good video!
What I’m amazed at is how it manages to keep the edge straight with, seemingly, very little guidance or control from the operator. Magic!

Neil this is what amazed me too! It’s done using a clever air system which sucks the material but does do enough so it can still move!
