The right number of embroidery heads or the right embroidery machine
Labor costs are the biggest cost factor in embroidery. It is therefore crucial that the person at the embroidery machine is optimally utilized. By using the right number of embroidery heads, you can significantly reduce your production costs. Melco Calculator shows you quickly and easily how many embroidery heads are ideal for each job and what savings potential this offers.
Calculate production time
The production time in embroidery depends not only on the number of stitches, but also significantly on the number of thread cuts and color changes. This is because the machine has to reduce its speed, stop and then accelerate again. Up to 150 stitches could be produced in the time it takes to make a thread cutter. Melco Calculator takes these factors into account and thus helps you to calculate production times and costs accurately.
If you have several embroidery machines, Melco Calculator also calculates which number or combination of embroidery machines is the most efficient and how much you can save by using the optimum machines. This is based on a comprehensive analysis of various factors, including operating costs, labor capacity, investment and maintenance costs as well as the specific characteristics of the embroidery pattern.
