Free production planning tool

Embroidery production time calculator

Estimate setup, handling, stitching, stops, likely interruptions, and contingency time. Start manually or import production details from a Tajima DST file.

No upload server: your DST files, images, job history, and calibration remain in this browser.

What the estimate includes

  • Design loading and production setup
  • Marking, hooping, removal, finishing, and packing
  • Machine runtime adjusted for RPM, heads, quantity, and design speed
  • Color changes, trims, manual stops, bobbin changes, and break risk
  • An editable contingency buffer and operator-overlap assumptions

Before you schedule a deadline

This is a planning estimate, not a production guarantee. Validate unfamiliar garments and dense designs with a sew-out, confirm machine limitations, and leave room for material, maintenance, staffing, and quality-control issues.
