With the development of industry, bags in the market are produced through assembly lines, which greatly shortens the production cycle of bag manufacturers and reduces costs. However, the birth of a bag requires the division of labor among multiple craftsmen and machines in the bag factory. And good products are all manufactured by experienced craftsmen from scratch, which includes many production details of luggage. So, the editor of Endian Technology takes you into the luggage factory to reveal the production industry of Bag.
1 Design inspiration
The beginning of each season is a time for designers to collide their minds, integrating inspiration from their daily lives and following the fashion trends of each season, extending one bag after another. This is the essence of the designer season and the first step in planning the series.
2 Color selection
Designers usually start developing their bag series one year in advance. Designers delve deeply into color schemes and fashion industry's main colors, combining seasonal changes with design inspiration to determine the main color scheme for a season.
3 Material
In fact, most people don't know that the first step in designing a package is not to draw or choose the package, but to choose the materials, which is the most important step. The core soul of a bag is its
At the same time, high-quality suppliers will also be selected for accessories and hardware to ensure the quality of the bags. Ruhao Yiche is a high-quality supplier of sewing thread for bags and suitcases, with no foam or oil. 600 colors available in 2 to 24 stock options for designers to choose from! Highly favored by bag factory designers!
4 Computer special board making
The paper grid is a very important part of making bags. Through close communication with designers during the design process, it is only then that the graphic design draft can be perfectly interpreted into a three-dimensional effect. The more a board maker understands a designer's ideas, the more they can present the designer's soul. A bag is composed of dozens of cutting pieces, and the design details of the inconspicuous ear lifting leather and the predecessor can reflect the skill of the board maker, who is also an artist.
5 Cutting
To be able to apply the highest quality parts on one piece of leather, it is necessary for the master to arrange and cut the leather piece by piece. The cutting master places the cut pieces one by one on a flat piece of leather material, uses a silver pen to outline the paper grid, and finally slowly cuts each piece on the bag by hand. Unlike traditional production lines that use large machines to cut and streamline production, this manual method is ten times more time-consuming than traditional production lines, but it can better reflect the texture in the final bag. In the later stage, each paper grid will be processed to produce bulk goods and improve production efficiency.
6 Oil edge
Leather materials have natural elasticity and will stretch over time. In order to maintain the shape of the bag and the stress on the shoulder straps, reinforcement materials of the same size are attached to the back of each cut to ensure the ductility of the leather material. Of course, a soft bag will minimize the thickness of reinforcement in order to maintain its drape or feel. After the fitting step is completed, the master will perform the process of stitching or manually applying edges. Unlike machine edge coating, manual edge coating is smoother and more uniform, but it doubles the production time.

Handmade countertops. This step is quite crucial. At the same time, it is divided into:
1. Shovel the skin. Firstly, the fabric at the connection area needs to be thinned to ensure that the sewing process at the connection area is aesthetically pleasing and tidy.
2. Hand made oil edge. Seal the fiber layer of the leather section. Maintain the shape of the fabric while increasing the overall aesthetics of the bag.
3. Hand folded edges. According to the wrapped adhesive cardboard, fold the raw edges inside to make the stitching more neat and beautiful, while also providing reinforcement and shaping effects.

The final step in a bag is to cut and combine each piece of leather material. This step requires a combination of different sewing machines, such as high turning, flat turning, and manual stitching for edge trimming. During this process, it can be slowly seen that the designer's design has revived, and it is also a masterpiece that craftsmen have put in a lot of effort
