Development Process on Cutting Fabric for Garments



Cutting Fabric for Garments

Cutting Fabric for Garments

A Standard Garments can achieve greater efficiency by considering their cutting room.  Standard Garment should fully work in new layout. And this layout fully compliance maintain. It also give to target Lay spreading, Numbering & Scissoring for better production. It should have Input Reporting Format like follow-up per hours  input and input problem we are try to solved & go door to door for finding actual problem. Cutting managers have some duties to flow up this process. Read more about Garment Cutting Software for Production Management ...

Purpose:


To ensure that only an acceptable quality of fabric is used for producing garments & proper quantity of shipment is received from the supplier.

Cutting View

The incoming fabric is received by assistant store manager. This fabrics are stored at fabric Go down by tagging buyer, style name & fabric type. Cutting quality in charge cut the blanket from each roll. The blankets are sewing by O/L & quality inspector will take the measurement. Then send to the buyer recommend washing process by wash merchandiser.
  • The Standard Garments Cutting Fabric are work in together.
  • There 16 spreading table for 25 lines.
  • Total Table length :861 feet
  • Average Table Width :5.58 feet.
  • Total Square feet :4808.69 feet .
  • Previous table length :1068 feet.
  • Reduce table length :1068-861 = 207 feet save.
  • Previous space = 17348 square feet .
  • Save space=17348-16190=1158 square feet.

Manpower

After completing the wash process it has been sent to cutting quality inspector by wash merchandiser.
  • Previous manpower : 199 Man
  • Present Manpower : 176 Man
  • Reduce manpower : 199-176 = 23 Man .

Saving Costing :


Average Salary = 6100 taka BD

Saving man = 23 X 6100 = 140300 taka (One Month )

One Year = 140300 X 12 = 1683600 taka BD

Target Setup

Then these blankets are divided into different types of shade. Then tag the fabric in go down as per shade. (Such as A, B, C, and D). Shrinkage test also done at this stage if the shrinkage is more than (+/- 5%) This fabric is considered as rejected. Before wash measurement-After wash measurement *100. Before wash measurement. The quality inspector will take 10% of total received yards then this fabric checked by fabric inspection machine. They check length, width & defects.
  • Standard Garments setup target against SMV.
  • Which had been observation last 6 month .
  • Finally we got SMV.
  • Making Cutting Fabric bulletin (operation breakdown)
  • Target Setup :
  • Making capacity graph on qc by Time study.
  • Finding individual numbering capacity.
  • VSM (Value Stream Mapping) continue.
  • Making worker determination salary. (continue )

Efficiency

If the length is different from invoice sheet it is informed to concern merchandiser, he is responsible to fill up the gap. After confirming the length- the length, width is recorded by Assistant Store Manager. At fabric inspection machine defect also checked by four points system and record it as fabric inspection report.

Formula :
  • Output Min : Working hrs X 60(min)X Manpower.
  • Input Min : Total Production X SMV.
  • Last three month average efficiency :
  • Month of July Efficiency : 58 %
  • Month of August Efficiency : 57 %
  • Month Of September Efficiency : 57%

Cutting Demand

The four points system is named from a basic grading rule, regardless of length/size or number of defects, no more then 4 penalty points may be assigned on any linear meter/yard.
Defect should be marked with a colored sticker. To show defects position it should be marked with the same color of sticker. Defects in both warp/weft directions will be assigned points using the following criteria 
  • Fabric & Accessories in-house in just time.
  • Proper planning set up.
  • Production Sample & Marker in-house in just time.
  • Fabric fault are approved before bulk cutting .it can be clear during fabric inspection time.
