Why is manual printing and dyeing not completely replaced by machines?

The main reasons why manual printing and dyeing have not been completely replaced by machines are as follows:

1. Flexibility: Manual printing and dyeing has high flexibility and personalization, which can meet the needs of different customers. Machine printing and dyeing usually aims at mass production, and it is difficult to adjust according to different needs.

2. Quality: the quality of manual printing and dyeing is good. Manual printing and dyeing can control the depth and uniformity of pigment more finely, thus making the printed products more natural and vivid. Although machine printing and dyeing has high precision and efficiency, it is difficult to guarantee the quality of each product.

3. Environmental protection: manual printing and dyeing adopts natural dyes and manual printing and dyeing technology, which has little impact on the environment. Machine printing and dyeing uses chemical dyes and high-temperature printing and dyeing technology, which has an impact on the environment.

To sum up, although machine printing and dyeing has advantages in production efficiency and cost, manual printing and dyeing still has unique advantages in flexibility, quality and environmental protection, so it has not been completely replaced by machines.
