As a professional custom plush doll factory, Hansightoy must make a sample for each plush toy before mass production. That is to say, a sample needs to be made. In the process of making the sample, what problems may arise and how can it be improved? Therefore, the process of making a sample is very important. But what is the process of making a sample for custom make stuffed animals, and what should be paid attention to?
First, when the customer provides drawings or manuscripts to the plush toy manufacturer, the designer needs to correctly identify the requirements of the original sample, and then distinguish the materials and process methods corresponding to the sample according to the requirements. For example, the cutting method, such as the sample that needs to be punched, should make a knife mold. For the sample that needs hot velvet, a hot melt plate should be made. If it is normal cutting, the sample needs to be made as required for cutting. The materials used for making samples are generally: 200 cardboard for the original sample; 0.8mm elastic paper for the production sample. The paper for the sample should be flat, clean and dry.
Second, when making plush toy samples, attention must be paid to the production principles of the straight line, arc, angle, proportion, symmetry, and positioning of the sample, and the text description is written on the front of the sample. Straight lines are straight, arcs are round, knife holes are in place, and angles and proportions are consistent. These points are the principles for making samples. Samples with center lines such as trapezoids should maintain symmetry on both sides. The straight lines of the opposite sides of rectangular samples should be kept parallel. The positioning points must be accurate, and the positioning points used for splicing or darts must correspond without omission.
Third, the reproduction of production samples should be accurate and must be consistent with the original sample. There must be no error in the length of the sample below 10cm, and the error is allowed to be within 0.5cm for samples above 10cm. In order to maintain the accuracy of the sample and check the degree of deformation of the sample, it is necessary to check it repeatedly with the original sample during use. If there is any non-compliance, it should be replaced in time. When errors occur due to different materials or processes of the fabric after cutting, it is necessary to consider enlarging or reducing the sample, but this needs to be confirmed by the sealed sample.
Fourth, in order to facilitate the correct identification of the sample, the sample logo is very important. The markings of the sample include: product model, product name, part name and sample number, material name (processing requirements). The yarn flow direction, number of pieces, positioning marks, etc. must all be marked on the sample. If the sample area is too small to mark all the contents, the sample number can be marked, and the process technology requirement sheet can be made. The corresponding content can be found on the process technology requirement sheet.
Fifth, the accuracy of the sample for copying production is a prerequisite for ensuring the accuracy of the pieces. The quality requirements for copying samples are: accurate shape, correct markings, and complete information.
Sixth, the nesting diagram is a diagram indicating the arrangement of each sample with the minimum material. The nesting diagram generally indicates the general information of the yarn flow or yarn direction of the sample, the reverse arrangement or the same arrangement of the sample, and the nesting of the sample.
Seventh, during the cutting operation, calculations and nesting should be performed according to the information prompted by the nesting diagram and the requirements of the production batch, and the unit piece quantity should be calculated. Nesting should be performed in a way that consumes the least material.
Eighth, after cutting, you can proceed with sewing, punching, filling and other processes, and finally make the sample. Compare it with the drawing, if there are any problems or errors, then make improvements.
