understanding why garment CNC automatic spreaders and cutters require perforated paper is essential to appreciate how cutting room efficiency, accuracy, and fabric integrity are optimized. The use of perforated underlay paper in combination with poly overlay films is a critical innovation in modern automated garment manufacturing.
Why Perforated Underlay Paper Is Necessary in Garment CNC Cutting
Facilitates Vacuum Suction for Fabric Stability
Perforated paper is essentially kraft paper with evenly spaced holes that allow air to flow through during vacuum suction.
CNC cutting tables use vacuum systems underneath the cutting bed to firmly hold multiple fabric layers in place.
The perforations enable uniform vacuum distribution by letting air be sucked down evenly through the paper, which secures the entire fabric stack firmly without shifting or distortion during high-speed cutting.
Minimizes Fabric Movement and Distortion
By creating steady suction that locks fabric layers in position, the perforated paper prevents common issues like slippage, wrinkles, or stretching which can ruin cutting precision.
This is crucial when dealing with delicate or stretchy fabrics, ensuring clean, sharp edges and reducing waste.
Supports High-Speed, Accurate Cutting Operations
Hold provided by vacuum-assisted perforated paper allows CNC machinery to operate at higher speeds without sacrificing cut quality.
This stability translates into consistent reproduction of computer-generated patterns with minimal margin for error.
Enhances Overall Cutting Efficiency and Quality
The secure hold reduces mechanical stress on cutting heads and conveyor systems, supporting machine longevity and reducing maintenance costs.
It also contributes to lower fabric waste and cleaner working conditions by minimizing fraying and dust generation.
Role of Perforated Paper Together with Poly Overlay Film
The poly overlay film (typically HDPE or LDPE) placed on top of the fabric stack works synergistically with the perforated underlay paper.
This top film forms an airtight seal over the fabric layers, maintaining vacuum integrity and maximizing suction force from the bottom via the perforated paper.
The airtight ‘sandwich’ created ensures a rigid, compressed layup held firmly during cutting, which prevents fabric distortion even in delicate materials and supports burr-free edge formation.
Why SATVA by JR CORPORATION Focuses on Perforated Papers
SATVA emphasizes precision-engineered perforated papers with pre-determined hole sizes and spacing for optimal vacuum distribution tailored to varied fabric types and cutter specifications.
Their perforated underlay kraft paper rolls are designed to be durable yet perforated enough to allow strong airflow, balancing mechanical strength and vacuum efficiency.
This approach supports their goal of driving efficiency, sustainability, and high-quality outcomes in apparel manufacturing by reducing fabric waste and improving cutting velocity and accuracy.
In Summary
The need for perforated paper with precisely engineered holes in garment CNC automatic spreaders and cutters lies primarily in the critical role it plays in enabling effective vacuum suction. This suction stabilizes the fabric layers for:
High-speed, precise cutting
Minimized fabric distortion and waste
Enhanced machine performance and durability
SATVA by JR CORPORATION’s commitment to providing specialized perforated underlay papers reflects the modern textile industry's demand for smart, sustainable, and effective solutions to meet production scale and quality requirements. The combination of perforated paper and poly overlay film is thus indispensable in achieving superior cutting room performance and garment quality in automated CNC fabric cutting systems.
