Ruyi installs smart technology by Lectra at its cutting rooms

Ruyi Group that owns the two largest comprehensive textiles and garment industry chains of the world, one from cotton and other from wool to branding and retailing industry chain, respectively. It’ s intelligent cutting line and the company’s alignment with the country’s ‘Made in China 2025’ initiative gets support from Lectra, the world leader in integrated technology solutions dedicated to industries using fabrics, leather, technical textiles and composite materials, which brings in state-of-the-art digital and automated cutting technology to upgrade and optimize Ruyi’s cutting rooms.

Carving a clear path towards smart cutting rooms, Ruyi’s installation of eight Lectra cutting machines—including the Vector® Matchline which automatically matches lines and grids for suit-making and is a first for Asia Pacific—clearly demonstrates the company’s commitment to a fully automated factory with expert cutting capabilities.

Qiuya Fu, chairman of Shandong Ruyi Group said that Lectra Vector Matchline is the world’s most advanced cutting machine capable of cutting with every line and grid perfectly matched. As a company dedicated to technology innovation, they are glad that Ruyi is the first in China to introduce this cutting machine in fashion making. This enables them to rival with western competitors in terms of technology. It is the value of Ruyi to use the best equipment to manufacture the best products.

This is a new milestone in the strategic alliance between Lectra and Ruyi, signed in 2014. Drawing on over four decades of innovation and expertise in the fashion industry, Lectra is the right partner to accompany Ruyi as it continues to embrace innovative solutions for the cutting room.

Embracing ‘Made in China 2025’, Ruyi has selected Lectra’s advanced technology for the company’s recently-launched intelligent men’s suits production line, at a factory in Yinchuan, Northern China.

Implementing innovative and high performance solutions is pivotal for Chinese companies to embrace the ten-year strategic plan ‘Made in China 2025’. Drafted by the Chinese Ministry of Industry and Information Technology—with the guiding principle to upgrade China’s industries—the initiative is fast propelling the Chinese economy towards value-added manufacturing and smart industrial production.

For Ruyi, installing Lectra’s leading edge technology will optimize manufacturing and efficiency, reduce waste and improve overall product quality.
