【Industry In-Depth Report】 As global manufacturing faces rising labor costs, higher energy bills, and a shift toward fragmented orders—characterized by smaller batches, higher variety, and faster delivery times—the home textile industry is undergoing an unprecedented digital transformation.

Fitted and flat sheets are among the most standardized core products in home textiles, making their production efficiency crucial to a company's cost competitiveness and market response time. Driven by high output, standardized stitching, and automated cutting, automated sheet production lines have officially become a must-have upgrade for traditional home textile factories.

However, when faced with the wide variety of automated equipment on the market, companies often find themselves in a dilemma during purchasing: Should they invest in expensive high-end imported machinery, opt for massive full production lines that take up significant floor space, or look for practical, energy-efficient smart manufacturing solutions with high returns?

To address this, this article provides a comprehensive comparison of the flagship automated bedsheet production lines from three iconic global home textile machinery brands: Changzhou Fuli Machinery Technology Co., Ltd. (Fuli Machinery) and Tianjin Richpeace Group (Richpeace) from China, alongside Jofesa Imagine Systems from Spain. 

An Analysis of the Big Three: Design Philosophies and Market Positioning across Brands

By looking closely at the product specs and use cases published by all three companies, you can clearly see how different their design approaches and target audiences really are：

1. Jofesa from Spain (AURIGA 3600 / INFINITY-T Series): The standard for European precision engineering and high-end customization

As a well-known European home textile machinery supplier founded in 1991, Jofesa lives up to the European tradition of high-precision manufacturing. Its AURIGA 3600 and INFINITY-T series offer excellent customization flexibility, making them a perfect fit for meeting the strict smoothness standards required by high-end fabrics like high-count, high-density cotton and silk. The company mainly serves high-end boutique factories across Europe and North America.

2. Tianjin Richpeace (RPAS-LM-ES-4 Series): A Line-Integration Heavyweight for Full-Plant Automation

As a major domestic player in the sewing equipment industry, Richpeace demonstrates impressive end-to-end integration with its RPAS automated bedsheet production line. The system brings together the entire workflow—including material feeding and alignment, automatic label cutting and insertion, longitudinal sewing, fixed-length cross-cutting, transverse sewing, and automated folding and stacking.

3. Changzhou Fuli Machinery (Fully Automated Bedsheet Production Line): High Practicality and Ultimate Energy Efficiency

Designed around the real-world operational needs of home textile factories, Changzhou Fuli Automation cuts out unnecessary extras to focus strictly on what matters most: sewing efficiency, energy savings, and ease of use. Fuli's bedsheet line slashes total installed power to an impressive 3 kW while maintaining a high chain-stitch output of up to 750 meters per hour. Its compact footprint (roughly 11 m × 3.5 m) allows standard factories to roll it out without major renovations - making it a truly practical setup that is affordable to buy, cheap to run, and quick to pay for itself.

Deep Focus: Core Competitive Advantages of Changzhou Fuli Automation (Fuli)

The R&D team at Ruli Automation truly understands the cost pressures home textile companies face. By innovating our structural design and optimizing servo control technology, we've built a strong competitive edge across lower energy consumption, efficient dual-layer feeding, flexible customization, and reduced maintenance costs.

1. Ultra-Low Power Design Delivers Remarkable Cost Reduction and Efficiency Gains

Electricity for equipment is a continuous, non-negotiable expense in daily factory operations. The Fuli fully automatic bedsheet production line operates at a total power output of just 3 kW (working voltage: 220V; air pressure: ≥ 0.8 MPa)—less than a tenth of the power consumed by comparable large-scale production lines like Richpeace (which run around 35 kW). Assuming an industrial electricity rate of 1 RMB per kWh and 16 hours of daily operation, running the Fuli equipment costs only about 48 RMB per day, compared to over 560 RMB for larger setups. On electricity alone, Fuli saves companies hundreds of thousands of RMB every year, significantly lowering marginal production costs.

2. High-Speed Stitching and Innovative Dual-Fabric Processing

In terms of production capacity, Fuli equipment supports two core stitch types: chain stitch and lock stitch. It operates at speeds of up to 750 meters per hour in chain stitch mode and up to 650 meters per hour in lock stitch mode. Even more impressively, the machine can feed two layers of fabric simultaneously for continuous four-side hemming. This significantly boosts fabric throughput and finished goods yield per hour, making it easy to handle high-volume, urgent orders under tight deadlines.

3. Extensive Size Coverage & Flexible Customization

To meet varying mattress and bedsheet dimensions across global markets—such as Single, Double, Queen, and King sizes—Fuli's production lines support seamless, wide-range adjustments from 200–2800 mm in width and 200–3000 mm in length. Additionally, our dedicated R&D team offers custom tailoring based on your specific sewing requirements, including unique hem widths or edge-stitching styles. This ensures our machinery integrates effortlessly with your existing production line.

4. One-Stop After-Sales Support & Low-Maintenance Operation

Ruli Automation provides a complete service experience from start to finish. We help you with initial floor plan design and installation, and keep things running smoothly with routine check-ins and ongoing maintenance. Our equipment is built with high-precision, modular components, which keeps breakdown rates exceptionally low while making it quick, easy, and inexpensive to replace wear-and-tear parts down the line.

FAQ

Q1：Does the fitted bedsheet production line's installed power of only 3 kW affect its sewing power and ability to process heavy fabrics?

A: Not at all. Fully Automation utilizes a new generation of high-precision servo motors paired with an optimized mechanical transmission system, reducing mechanical wear and energy loss to an absolute minimum. The 3 kW power delivers plenty of penetration force and steady traction. Whether working with lightweight silk and linen or thicker, high-density combed cotton, the machine smoothly handles four-side hemming and sewing at a consistent speed.

Q2: How efficient is Fully's production line setup when handling fragmented, high-mix/low-volume orders?

A: Our equipment is built for maximum flexibility. Thanks to an intuitive digital control panel, switching between different sheet sizes - like going from a narrow 200mm to an extra-wide 2800mm - is fast and straightforward. Operators just enter the new parameters on screen and make a few quick mechanical adjustments. This cuts downtime drastically, making it a perfect fit for today's fast-turnaround, small-batch orders.

Q3: How does Fully Automation ensure reliable post-sale maintenance and spare parts supply compared to imported equipment and large integrated lines?

A: We provide a comprehensive, all-in-one lifecycle service package that covers on-site installation, staff training, regular checkups, and fast emergency repairs. Because our equipment uses a modular design with high-precision parts, all wearable components are standardized. This means spare parts are readily available, quick to ship, and transparently priced. Compared to overseas brands with their expensive, cross-border service fees, choosing us saves you significant long-term operational costs.
