Summary
A profession that selects materials for bags, cuts, sews, assembles, finishes, etc., to manufacture various types of bags.
Description
Bag manufacturing workers use materials such as leather, synthetic leather, and fabrics to handle a series of processes including cutting, sewing, assembly, hardware attachment, and finishing. They appropriately use cutting machines, industrial sewing machines, hand-sewing tools, etc., manufacturing from mass production lines to made-to-order products. Mechanized operations for efficiency and manual adjustments for fine details are combined to maintain high quality.
