[0002] Button sewing is an important part of the garment production process. In traditional garment processing, button sewing relies on manual operation, which is labor-intensive for workers, has low production efficiency, and makes it difficult to guarantee the accuracy and consistency of the sewing position.
[0003] With the development of automation technology, semi-automatic button sewing equipment has emerged on the market. Although these devices have improved the efficiency of the sewing action to some extent, there are still obvious shortcomings in the button supply process. Many devices require manual placement of buttons one by one into the designated position of the sewing mechanism. This feeding process interrupts the continuous workflow of the equipment and becomes a bottleneck restricting the overall production efficiency.
