Definition … • Clothing is any covering for the human body. The amount and type of clothing worn depends on the functional considerations such as the need for warmth. In some societies, the minimum amount of clothing covering a person may be acceptable while in others, more clothing is expected. Difference between Garment, Apparel and Clothing?
Sampling … • Sampling is the first step in the clothing production process. • Customers want to judge your capability • Different types of samples are made at different stages. E.g. prototype sample, size-set sample, pre-production sample etc Order is confirmed after sampling
Order planning … • There are two parts of planning • Material planning (Sourcing) • Inhouse fabric manufacturing • Outsourcing • BOM • Production planning • Capacity • Deadline Dr. Abher Rasheed / Non-woven and technical textiles
Lay planning … • Manual • Computer aided • Digitizing • Grading • Order making • Order processing • Marker making
Spreading … • Superimposing fabric layers on each other to get required number of pieces cut at the same time. • Spreading types • Manual • Automatic • Spreading modes • Face to face • Face one way
Cutting … • The process of cutting a fabric lay to get required number of pieces at the same time. • Cutting types • Manual • Automatic
Numbering and bundling … • Each piece in a bundle is numbered to avoid shade variation • Bundles are made ready to be transported to stitching department
Stitching … • The process of joining of fabric pieces to make a garment • There are other joining techniques as well. E.g. ultrasonic welding, thermal bonding
Stitching … • A line where two or more fabric plies are joined together are called a Seam • Seam types • Superimposed seam (SS) • Lapped seam (LS) • Flat seam (FS) • Bound seam (BS) • Edge-finishing (EF) • Ornamental stitching (OS)
Stitching … • Stitch is a specific configuration of thread. A stitch is used to join the fabrics in a repeated manner. • Stitch types • Class 100 • Class 200 • Class 300 • Class 400 • Class 500 • Class 600
GDP and GWP • These processes are used to create different effects on the garment. The basic idea is the use of abrasion to destroy the fibers. • Scrapping • Sand blasting • Grinding • Spraying
GWP … • Wet processes are used to create effects on the garemnt • Rinse wash • Stone wash • Bleach wash • Acid wash
Finishing and packing… • Threading • Reparing • Pressing • Packing Finally the garments are dispatched ! Dr. Abher Rasheed / Non-woven and technical textiles
