Case Study: Miti achieves control of leather cutting and maximizes material efficiency with Lectra’s Versalis

Miti takes control of leather cutting with Lectra’s Versalis

Miti, an Italian maker of high‑end upholstered furniture, faced rising costs and loss of control after outsourcing leather cutting: subcontracting led to unpredictable hide consumption, compromised cut quality and high material waste. To protect product quality, meet delivery commitments and reduce operating costs, the company decided to bring leather cutting in‑house.

Lectra performed an impact analysis and cutting tests, then supplied its Versalis automated leather‑cutting solution. The system let Miti maximize hide utilization (over 70% for some models), deliver 3% material savings, meet tight deadlines and reduce labor skill requirements (a one‑head cutter run by two operators), with ongoing Lectra support to sustain results.
