This happened previously by hand<\/strong> and proved to be a bottleneck in production. The machine-produced fabric blanks are folded in the station and on both sides with ultrasound<\/strong> welded together. In the final step, loops are sewn onto the masks.<\/p>\n

\u201eWe are very pleased about the technical support from a special machine manufacturer like Optima<\/strong>\u201c, says Schaller. This is a first step towards speeding up the production of the masks. In order to further increase the company's production capacities<\/strong>, talks are currently underway about possible automation<\/strong> of this process.<\/p>\n
