normal functions.
2. Routine Maintenance: After a particular little the machines are
cleaned & reordered, that is routine or schedule maintenance. PPC
does it once in a month. Schedule maintenance varies, time in time
& also depends on situation according to types of machines, because
maintenance is directly related to production.
Most of the time, all the screws, nuts, bolts & levers are checked,
lubrication is also done. Workers inform about the problem areas of the
machines. Depending on their information. maintenance is done,
Maintainers analyses the machine records & take steps according to
requirements.

The UKDL is a well-planned versatile project. The administrations,
management, chain of command – all are well organized. They are devoted
to satisfy the customer by their activities. However, some of the point we want
to mention for the good of UKDL .
SOME SUGGESTIONS:
- During the transport of the fabric in the dyeing floor and also during
the loading of the m/c, fabrics are soiled for the contact with floor.
This makes the fabric/part of the fabric dirty. It may require more
scouring/bleaching agent or may create stain making it faulty.
- The dyeing floor is watery most of the time: it should be cleaned all
the time.
- The illumination of the dyeing shade should be enhanced. It may
exert the worker fatigue ness.
- More skilled labour should be used in a project as UKDL. Many time
the dosing pipelines are clogged due to the careless dosing of
chemicals.
- The m/c stoppage time should be analyzed and minimized. The
maintenance should be carried out when the m/c is out of action
(wherever possible)
67. Page no: 67
LIMITATIONS OF THE REPORT:
- Because of secrecy act, the data on costing and marketing
activities has not been supplied & hence this report excludes these
chapters.
- We had a very limited time. In spite of our willing to study more
details it was not possible to do so.
- Some of the points in different chapter are not described as these
were not available.
- The whole process is not possible to bind in such a small frame as this
report, hence our effort spent on summarizing them.
Lastly
What special in this report is that the information, data & description
very much subjective & practical. So, one can easily have an idea about the
whole dyeing unit of UKDL at a single look on it.
The newcomer can use this report for further detailed study or can know
UKDL without much work. But what should be remembered the chemical,
some process steps may be modified within the period this papers goes to the
readers.
