About
OpenSeam is revolutionizing the textile manufacturing industry with cutting-edge AI and analytics technology. Our mission is to empower factories of all sizes with the tools they need to optimize production, reduce waste, and increase profitability.
Use historic data to improve cycles, lines, workers. By a lot.
Our innovative approach allows factories to:
- Gain real-time insights into production metrics
- Identify and eliminate inefficiencies
- Improve worker skills and productivity
- Make data-driven decisions for better resource allocation
Recoup revenue. A lot of it.
Capture lost time hidden in down time, i.e. every millisecond that should have been productive. Then use it to rebalance, smarter.
- Find inefficiencies on any type of line.
- Take a true measure of stamina, and rebalance with it.
- Less processes, fewer methods, more insights, better decisions.
Higher earning potential.
Use OpenSeam to reveal and predict skills training opportunities.
Then use it to train better, faster.
- upskilling & reskilling for partial automation
- faster, fairer channels with managers
- truly transferable work history
FAQ
What is OpenSeam?
OpenSeam is an AI-enabled analytics solution for textile manufacturing that captures crucial time metrics at workstations. It empowers factories to optimize production and enhance efficiency through data-driven insights.
How does OpenSeam work?
OpenSeam utilizes small devices attached to each sewing workstation in a factory plant to collect real-time data. This data is then analyzed by OpenSeam's AI to generate actionable insights.
Is OpenSeam compatible with all sewing machines?
To date, OpenSeam has been compatible with every industrial sewing machine encountered, regardless of age or model. We will update this statement if we ever find an incompatible machine.
How long does it take to implement OpenSeam?
OpenSeam installation is remarkably quick: under 1 minute per sewing workstation, and just hours for an entire factory plant. Our devices are designed for rapid deployment and seamless integration.
What kind of insights does OpenSeam provide?
OpenSeam delivers critical insights on machine utilization, operator performance, production bottlenecks, and lost revenue. These valuable insights enable manufacturers to optimize processes, boost productivity, and enhance competitiveness.
Is my data secure with OpenSeam?
Yes. OpenSeam prioritizes data security, employing encryption for data both in transit and at rest. We adhere to industry-standard security protocols to ensure the confidentiality of your information.
Can OpenSeam integrate with my existing management systems?
Currently, direct integration is not available. However, we're developing a secure, dedicated API for select customers in the near future. We've observed that many ERP and MES systems in the textile industry use outdated data methods or are resistant to interoperability. At OpenSeam, we champion open standards and believe in their potential to transform the industry. Future integrations will depend on other systems' willingness to adopt common data standards.
7.2 billion spot checks, every single shift
Imagine an army of supervisors spot-checking the work of each station, continuously throughout the work shift.
Now have them do it every 5 milliseconds.
For a mid-sized factory with ~1000 active sewing stations, OpenSeam gathers sensor data equivalent to 7.2 billion spot checks, every single shift.
No time to waste.
Set up a whole factory in hours, not months.
Only 2 requisites: power supply and WIFI.
