A complete zebra blind production guide covering striped-fabric cutting, profile processing, double-layer assembly, band alignment and final inspection. The equipment sequence below follows the Sunshieldorhonki catalog; prices are intentionally excluded because final tooling, voltage, guarding and automation depend on the customer’s product.

Manufacturing Process
- Inspect stripe repeat and confirm fabric direction.
- Align and cut the striped fabric.
- Cut cassette, tube and bottom profiles.
- Assemble the double-layer fabric and drive.
- Adjust sheer/opaque overlap.
- Hang and inspect alignment through the full travel.
Step 1: Fabric cutting — choose one
Laser Fabric Cutting Machine
Line status: Alternative for compatible synthetic fabrics
| Version | Catalog parameters |
|---|---|
| Machine specification | 1,300 kg | 3.6 kW | 5,875 × 4,200 × 1,200 mm |
Run a sample test for edge sealing, heat marks and discoloration before selecting laser cutting.
Pressure Knife + Flying Knife Machine
Line status: Mechanical cutting alternative
| Version | Catalog parameters |
|---|---|
| Single flying knife | 650 kg | 0.9 kW | 4,800 × 4,280 × 965 mm |
| Double flying knife | 700 kg | 1.2 kW | 4,900 × 4,280 × 965 mm |
Select single or double flying knife by trimming method and required throughput; they are alternatives, not a mandatory pair.
Step 2: Profile cutting — choose one
Hand-Lever Aluminum Profile Cutting Machine
Line status: Essential budget alternative
| Version | Catalog parameters |
|---|---|
| Catalog specification | 320 kg | 2.5 kW | 6,650 × 1,050 × 1,300 mm |
Suitable for flexible custom sizes and lower output. It is an alternative to CNC positioning.
CNC Aluminum Profile Cutting Machine
Line status: Recommended shared profile cutter
| Version | Catalog parameters |
|---|---|
| Catalog specification | 320 kg | 2.5 kW | 6,650 × 1,050 × 1,300 mm |
Best for repeat dimensions and faster positioning. Confirm blade, guarding and profile fixtures against actual drawings.
Step 3: Stripe alignment and inspection
Single-Sided Inspection Hoist
Line status: Shared final inspection equipment
| Version | Catalog parameters |
|---|---|
| Catalog specification | 150 kg | 0.4 kW | 3,000 × 800 × 3,300 mm |
Use for vertical operation, tracking, squareness and appearance inspection.
Configuration Options
| Level | Recommended scope |
|---|---|
| Essential | Pressure/flying-knife cutter + hand-lever profile cutter + hanging test |
| Recommended | Material-matched cutter + CNC profile cutter + inspection hoist |
| Higher throughput | Double-flying-knife or suitable laser configuration + CNC processing + dedicated inspection |
Quality-Control Checklist
- Stripe repeat and fabric direction before every cut
- Sample-tested edge quality
- Parallel double layers without skew
- Uniform band overlap at multiple height positions
What We Need to Configure Your Line
Send Sunshieldorhonki your blind sample or drawings, maximum finished width and height, fabric/slat/profile materials, expected daily or monthly output, preferred automation level, workshop dimensions, power and compressed-air details, and any existing machines you want to reuse.
We will turn those inputs into a process plan, machine list and factory-layout proposal without forcing duplicate equipment.
