BLUE LION / THE COMPLETE PRODUCTION JOURNEY
Five connected stages bring a blanket from its textile base to a finished product. Follow the entire process, then choose the full line or the stations your factory needs.
THE BLUE LION AUTOMATION ADVANTAGE
Blue Lion lays the heating wire automatically and keeps fabric feeding, lamination and cutting in a connected flow. Compare the same blanket body across assisted and manual production to see where extra handling adds time.
Fabric advances and the machine places the heating wire along a programmed path. Lamination and cutting follow in one connected flow. Operators supervise and replenish materials; nobody routes the heating wire by hand.
Equipment helps at selected stations, but operators guide material or move the blanket between steps. Each transfer interrupts the connected flow.
People measure, route and secure the heating wire, then move the piece onward. Output depends directly on repeated manual placement.
At Blue Lion's stated 50-second cycle, theoretical output is 72 blanket bodies in an uninterrupted hour. The assisted and manual times below are editable examples, so you can compare against your own factory data.
A programmed wire path reduces dependence on hand placement. Each finished blanket still needs electrical and heating checks.
Operator guidance and station transfers add handling between assisted steps.
Measuring, routing and securing the wire rely on repeated manual work.
Use your measured cycle times, staffing and hourly pay. The 50-second Blue Lion cycle stays fixed; the automatic-line operator count is adjustable because supervision arrangements differ.
Calculation: bodies/hour = 3,600 ÷ seconds; direct labour/body = hourly pay × operators × seconds ÷ 3,600. The default example uses $10/hour and 1 / 2 / 2 operators. Semi-automatic 3 minutes and manual 10 minutes are hypothetical inputs, not measured output or a guarantee.
Quality: No comparable defect-rate data is available. Test finished blankets of the same design for wire spacing, heating uniformity, insulation, electrical safety and wash durability. The figures exclude stoppages, setup, rework, materials, equipment and power costs, controller assembly, final inspection and packaging.
IMAGE NOTE The three production visuals are illustrative. Actual workstation layouts, equipment and material handling vary by factory.
THE MATERIAL FOUNDATION / 01—02
The upstream process prepares needle-punched cotton and bonds it to fabric before the heating wire enters the picture.
01 / AI-GENERATED VISUALFine needles entangle fibres to form the soft, stable nonwoven cotton base used in the blanket construction.
02 / AI-GENERATED VISUALUltrasonic vibration bonds fabric and needle-punched cotton into a composite layer. The material is prepared for the wiring station that follows.
FULLY AUTOMATIC WIRING MACHINE / 03
The wiring station brings active fabric feeding, heating-wire placement, punching and hooking, controlled flame lamination and cutting together in one production flow.
INSIDE STAGE 03 / REAL MACHINE FOOTAGE
Eight real clips follow the wiring line, a one-touch setting change, Pro corner cutting and blanket output. Choose a chapter below to watch it.
Watch the gantry lay heating wire along the planned route on the moving blanket material. This is the machine-led step at the heart of the HT Series.
EQUIPMENT DEMONSTRATION FOOTAGE Clips 01–08 are a video index within the wiring process, separate from the five full-line stages above. Equipment sequence and finish depend on the specified setup.

AI-GENERATED VISUALThe same core process, plus integrated adjustable rounded-corner cutting.
Explore ProBoth versions include active fabric feeding and automated wiring. Pro adds the rounded-corner cutting station; the ordered configuration is confirmed by quotation.
DOWNSTREAM FINISH / 04—05
After the wired, laminated piece is cut, edge finishing and the control assembly complete the product.
The flow calls for four-sided edge binding after cutting. The automatic binding machine is in production validation; the integration and supply schedule are confirmed for each project.

Fit the specified control switch and complete the agreed electrical and functional checks. The blanket is then ready for the customer's final packaging process.
