Our team is working with New Balance to investigate certain manufacturing processes for New Balance shoes at their Lawrence, MA factory.  We are mainly looking into the causes of potential variations in stitch location that become apparent during computerized stitching processes.  To investigate this, we are testing the stitching process with different materials and adjusting pallets based on our findings and observations of experts working at the facility. Our goal is to collect data to experimentally determine root causes of the variations.
