Visual Inspection M/C inspection

Head Cut Inspection:
A minimum amount of fabric from the roll has been
cut for “shrinkage” & “shade” test.This is called “head
cut”.
For spandex 100% roll has the head cut and for
cotton 10% roll from 100% roll has the head cut.
Head cut parameter:
Shrinkage test : 25-30 inches.
Center to Salvage variation test : 5-10 inches.

Blanket Inspection:
Supplier gives extra cloth for making blanket for
shade test.
If not then 35 inches has been cut from the roll for
making a blanket.
Then blanket goes to washing.
After washing sewing is disclosed from the blanket
for the “ShadeTest”.

Blanket Inspection:
Shades are then segregated by the buyer
requirement as: A/B/C/D
A shade book then be prepared to give the
merchant for an overall review.
A shade band chart has been ready for “pro-cut”
entry.
From “pro-cut” a barcode has been found.

the actual fabric which is going to be use
Proto sample
Developed at very initial stage
Usually done on the substitute fabrics,
and using accessories, what is available
Design development
The first sample which is made for any
style
Take the decision to proceed with the
same line or not.

Sampling procedure
GPT sample (Garment Performance Test)
Perform the physical and chemical testing on
garment to ensure the performance of the garment
The tests done on garments are: Shrinkage, Color
Fastness, Seam performance etc.
Size set sample
To check the factory's capability to make the sample
in all sizes
1-2 samples (or quantity specified by buyer) of each
size send to buyer.
Sales man / Marketing /Showroom sample
Collect the order from the retailers Actual accessory, actual fabric is used

Sampling procedure
Wash sample
Submitted to buyer.
Assessment of feel and handle of fabric after
washing.
Pre- production sample
Considered to be a contract between the buyer
and the factory.
Made in original fabric and trims
Washing, embroidery and printing should match
to actual.

Normal standard of marker
making
Calculate Marker Efficiency:
Calculation method of marker efficiency has been explained below with
formula.
Formula#1
Marker efficiency% = (Area of marker used for garments / Area of total
marker) * 100
Formula#2
Marker efficiency% = (Weight of fabric consumed by patterns pieces in
a marker /Total weight of fabric of under the marker area)*100

Hanger system
In this system, front and back part of a garment will move
in the production floor at the same time.
Same numbers of hanger will be equipped on front and
back part line. For those 2 lines each hanger are mentioned
by matching numbers with different color.
The production will run based on that hanger number
which means if the front part line operator doing the job
held at no. 5 hanger, back part line operator should have
doing the same job held at no. 5 hanger.

Hanger system
After all operations those hanger arriver at the preliminary
quality checking table for ensuring quality of the garment.
When the quality checking is done, all parts of the garment
will send for assembling where another type of hanger is
used.
In one hanger total parts of a garment can place in each pc.
All the hangers will be back on the input station.

Hanger system
Advantages of hanger system :
Less manpower needed
Worker flexibility increased
Reduced much time to make a complete garment
Work In Progress (WIP) is decreased
Finding and removing bottlenecks visually
Problems can find visually.

• Capacity planning
• List of machines with capacity
• Types of washes we do
• Recipe learning ratio, Load factor, Process cycle

• Understanding activities in dry process
• Understanding wash recipe

Capacity Planning
An example of determining the required capacity for a
particular style is given below:
Working hours=20 hours=1200 min
Required time for one lot of denim wash= 240 min
Total order qty. =20,000
Lot weight= 114 kg
Lot qty.= 200 pcs

Capacity Planning
For “Yilmak 3860s”,
Capacity= 380 kg
Loading factor= 30%
So, acceptable capacity= 114 kg
No. of lot per machine= 1200/240 =5 lot.
So, acceptable qty. for per machine=5*200 pcs
= 1000 pcs

Capacity Planning
Let us assume that the ex factory date is 10 days for this
denim lot.
So, per day delivery target = 20,000/10 = 2,000 pcs.
So, number of machine needed= 2,000/1,000=2 m/c.
So, the required capacity for this particular denim style is 2
m/c for 2,000 pcs. per day.

Liquor Ratio
Liquor ratio:
In a washing procedure the chemical which will use in
the machine is mixed with water first.To get a perfect wash
this mixture have to be good.
Liquor ratio is the ratio between water and the
chemical that is used in the washing machine to get a perfect
washing.

Load Factor
Load Factor
Depending on wash type based on different chemical loading factor
of the machine should be minimize to get the best quality of wash.
Load factor is basically the amount of loading of each machine’s
capacity.

Shade control system from fabric
to the pack garment
Shade variation in fabric may appear as:
•Within same fabric roll there may be shade
variation like 'centre to selvage' and 'salvage to
salvage‘
•Within same fabric roll length wise shade
variation
•Shade variation in between fabric rolls

Shade control system from fabric
to the pack garment
Shade control in different areas:
• Fabric inspection: All fabric rolls need to inspect for shade
variation. Categorize fabric rolls based on fabric shades. If
there is a wide range of shade variation and fabric shade is
out of the standard one, management team should be
informed.
• Preparing Shade band: Develop shade bands and get
approval for all shade bands you have in your bulk fabric.
Mark shade band no. to each fabric roll / than. Shade bands
help in fabric layering and shorting in cutting room.

Shade control system from
fabric to the pack garment
• Communicate with clear information: With varied shades of fabrics,
information must be shared with cutting department as well as
production department. While issuing fabric to cutting, intimate
cutting department that fabric has different shades and fabric lots
should not be get mixed.
• Fabric layering: Categorizing rolls according to shade band. While
spreading fabrics for cutting, spread fabrics of same shade band no.
in a lay. Fabrics roll of different shades. When need to spread fabric of
another shade on the same lay place separator to identify cutting of
different rolls easily at the time of shorting and bundling.

• Marker placement: In case fabric has shade variation of 'centre
to selvage' and 'side to side' place garment pattern on the fabric
layer in such a way that shade variation would not be prominent
(visible) in garment.
• Numbering of layers: Use of ply numbering system and number
all garment components. Like, all components of a garment
should have same sequence number. In case spreading of fabrics
of multiple lots in a same lay (cut) use separator for each rolls/
lots. Then while making bundles ,bundles for each lots/rolls are
separated.

• Bundle movement in sewing: After following above steps strictly,
one even have shade variation in garment if bundles are not
maintained in sewing lines. Sewing operators need to close
bundles after completing sewing of a bundle. Ensure that when
operators join two component they should check ply number on
sticker and sew component with same ply numbers.
• Replace defective garment part: Check garment component
shade variation at the end of line inspection. Garments found with
fabric shade variation (varied shade of different components if that
is not a design feature) need to be separated from the good
garments. Later defective garments (due to shade variation) can
be corrected by replacing parts. For the part changing, be careful
to cut parts from the matching lots.

Finishing : After finishing several garment these all has a lots
of shade variation to each other. So, to get reduce from these
kind of problem shade segregation is required for each
garment.
