LED Lighting Equipment To Enhance Productivity Of Garment Factories

A new study shows that environmentally friendly LED lighting equipment not only improves the productivity of garment factories, but also increases their profits.

The study surveyed 25 garment factories in Bangalore, India, and found that 2010-2013 years ago, the LED lighting facilities kept less cool than the traditional lighting facilities, and kept the factory floor cool.

And reduce absenteeism.

"Thermal stress can make the body stop functioning, so workers in garment factories are less likely to achieve target production," said Achyuta Adhvaryu, an assistant professor of University of Michigan Ross School of Business at the University of Michigan, and one of the authors of the study.

Researchers found that installation

Lighting costs about $6300, but it can save $3000 a year in energy costs.

However, due to efficiency improvement, each factory can increase profits by up to US $41 per day, that is to say, the profit per factory increases by nearly US $13000 per year.

The author of the study pointed out that

The climate of developing countries is more intense than that of the developed countries, and it is unlikely that there will be air-conditioning equipment. It is more and more challenging for developing enterprises in China to maintain the cooler environment of garment factories.

Swiss Luzern applied science and technology and University of the Arts's smart embroidery LED woven into cloth, the effect of light and fabric texture together.

According to Professor Isabel Rosa M ggler, head of research group of Luzern applied technology and product and textile capability center of University of the Arts, people used to combine light and fabric by hand, and few people tried it at the level of industrial machinery.

Researchers create materials and atmosphere that combine light and fabric. Materials can show different light and intensity, making it a very unique expression.

The LED fabric produced by mechanization has brought new possibilities to many industries such as fashion and interior decoration. The appearance of light perception has added new dimensions to fabrics, especially in the field of fashion.

We often hear that a garment is "too dark", but few people say that a garment is "too bright".

Designer Huang Mali (Mary Huang) of a clothing design should be able to change this situation.

The scarf designed by Huang Mali is called rhyme&reason. She uses LED to light the scarf and "create changes in fashion through exploratory light".

Obviously, this scarf can also be used as a lighting source when it is not worn. There is no fixed shape to constrain it.

This scarf is made of pure cotton fabric and hand-made hook flowers. Each scarf has 24 LED built in to provide attractive lights.

The LED of scarves can be powered by batteries (button batteries) or adapters to power scarves.
