Final Selection Criteria and Applying the Criteria

Good sewing machines have a big motor that gives in a maximum speed and enough

power to sew heavy and thick fabrics. This enables the machine operators to sew faster and

complete many units. Selecting a sewing machine running on servo motors will be ideal for the

business of company X as this type of motor offers the operator more control allowing them to

sew complex designs (Coelho, Santos, Pinho, Boaventura-Cunha & Oliveira, 2018). This type of

motor consumes less power and is quite suitable for a factory setting. Ideal machine for the

factory should be cost friendly without compromising the functionality of the sewing machine

given company x is starting company (Coelho, Santos, Pinho, Boaventura-Cunha & Oliveira,

2018).

Purchasing a Brother CS700i sewing and quilting machine will be ideal for company X.

heirloom stitching, quilting, utility and decorative stitching. The machine has an automatic

needle threader and costs $ 187(Goldstartool.com, 2020). The stitching speed per minute is 850

good for a manufacturing industry. Jukki DDL-8700 has a speed of 5500 stitches per minute, it is

cost friendly at $842. The sewing machine runs on a servo motor saving on electric power

consumption. These two models are ideal for company X to start their business
