But without adequate planning and preparation, the endeavor to become more versatile can backfire, resulting in businesses taking on expenses that don’t end up bringing in a good return on investment (ROI), especially if they have to hire more workers. Offering both can also mean entering somewhat unfamiliar manufacturing territory, leading to possible product failures; for example, when an item should have been sewn but was sealed instead, or vice versa. Evaluating, purchasing and learning to operate
Many realities factor into the decision about whether it makes sense to add sewing or sealing to your menu of services. One of these is the kind of projects you anticipate attracting by doing so. For example, says Evling, welded seams, rather than sewn, are typically superior for products that must be water -or tair-tight. They’re also likely the best route for medical applications involving antimicrobial requirements. Products destined for extreme weather are also good candidates for welding, she says, as thread might be prone to degradation under particularly harsh conditions.

Ae a aunoa ma se fuafuaga lelei ma tapenapenaga, o le taumafaiga ina ia sili atu ona lelei e mafai ona toe foʻi i tua, e mafua ai ona fai pisinisi e faʻaalu tupe faʻaalu e le iʻu ai i se tupe maua lelei (ROI), aemaise lava pe a latou faʻafaigaluegaina nisi tagata faigaluega. O le ofoina atu o mea uma e lua e mafai foi ona faauigaina o le ulufale atu i le teritori o gaosiga e le masani ai, e mafua ai ona faaletonu oloa; mo se faataitaiga, ina ua tatau ona suiina se mea ae na faamaufaailogaina, po o le isi itu. Iloiloina, fa'atau ma a'oa'o fa'agaioiga
O le tele o mea moni e fa'atatau i le fa'ai'uga pe talafeagai le fa'aopoopoina o le su'isu'i po'o le fa'amaufa'ailoga i lau lisi o au'aunaga. O se tasi o nei ituaiga o galuega faatino e te fa'amoemoe e tosina mai e ala i le faia. Mo se fa'ata'ita'iga, fai mai Evling, su'isu'i uelo, nai lo le su'iina, e masani lava ona sili atu mo oloa e tatau ona fa'asusu-po'o le fa'ai'u. E foliga mai o le auala sili lea mo talosaga faafomaʻi e aofia ai manaʻoga faʻamaʻi. O oloa e fa'atatau mo le leaga o le tau e lelei foi mo le uelo, o lana tala lea, ona o filo e ono afaina i lalo o tulaga faigata.
