2. Garment Production Systems
• Definition of garment production system..
The garment production system can be define it is the way how
fabric is being converted into garment in a manufacturing
system.
3. Main production systems in garment
manufacturing prosess..
• Make Through System
When a tailor alone makes a complete garment, then it is called
as make though systems.
Including the followings….,
makes pattern (use readymade pattern), cuts fabric and does
finishing of the garment.
4. Section Production System
• This system is similar to the progressive bundle system. But
the difference is that, instead of one line, work is divided into
sections. Machines of similar operations are clubbed together
instead of spreading over in all lines.
5. One Piece Flow System
• Instead of making a bundle of multiple pieces, bundle is made
with all components of a single piece. Sewing machines in
One-piece-flow system can be laid in a straight line or
modular line. Main difference is that, operator will receive
one piece from back and move one piece to his next operator
after completing his work. Benefits of One-piece-Flow system
are less through put time, Less WIP in the line.
6. Overhead Production System (UPS -Unit
Production system)
• In overhead production system, garment components are
clamped in a hanger and the hanger moves on an overhead
rail. In the hanger components of a single piece is clapped. So
this is also one kind of single-piece-flow system.
7. Assembly Line System
• · Bundles of garment components are moved sequentially from operation
to operation
• · Bundles consist of garment parts needed to complete a specific
operation or garment component.
• · Some companies work with varied bundle sizes others with standard
bundle sizes
• · Bundles are assembled in cutting room where cut parts are matched.
• · Bundle tickets consist of a master list of operations and corresponding
coupons for each operation.
• · Each bundle receives a ticket that identifies style#, size, shade and list of
operations (is some cases)
• · Bundles are assembled is cutting room where cut parts are matched
• · Bundle receives a ticket that identifies style#, size, shade and list of
operations.
8. There are two variations of the assembly line
system being followed in the industries namely
• Progressive Bundle systems and
Unit production system
9. A. Progressive Bundle system
• Machines and operations are organized into sections
according to basic functions, which produce sub components.
B .Unit Production system (UPS)
• Similar to a relay race, each production operator has a task
and passes that garment on to the next person. Normally
there is only one garment between operations.
