STUDY ON THE BARRIERS OF HIGHER PRODUCTION AND ITS REMEDIES IN THE GERMENTS INDUSTRY
School: Science
and Engineering
Course of Studies: B.Sc.
in Textile Engineering
Supervising Teacher
Professor Dr. Md. Abul Kalam Azad
Guest Faculty,
Professor.
Department of Textile engineering,
Southeast University.
ABSTRACT
Barriers of production are the major issue in apparel garmentmanufacturing which determines the effectiveness of total garments system and
run the process towards the up to mark standard. The main objective of this project is to determine the
suitable tools can be used specially for textile garments manufacturing, find out the
problems restricting the production, generating proper solution and implement
them in a proper way. In this study all data included of production capacity
both for past state and present state which shows the comparative improvement
of before implementation and after implementation of these tools. Methodology
of this project was to find out the barriers, non productive time and determine
the best possible way to eliminate major problems which are responsible for productivity
loss in apparel garments sector.
The phase-out of the quota is likely to have particular
significance for the export of Bangladesh apparels to the US market. MFA’s
impacts are not much related to a question of our $2 billion exports to the
USA; or the $5 billion worth of exports made by Bangladesh globally. Rather, it
is a question of how Bangladesh’s entire economy will be affected by the issue
of quota phase out. Readymade garment exports constitute about 85% of
Bangladesh’s annual export and provide direct employment to 1.5 million females
and indirectly an additional 8 to 10 million people. The global clothing trade
is evolving on a continuous basis and that the phase out of quota restrictions
and forming of trade blocs has become a reality. Moreover Bangladesh is
convulsed by fierce class struggles, centered on the country’s garment
industry. Many tens of thousands of workers have gone on strike, blocked roads,
attacked factories and other buildings, demonstrated, fought the police and
rioted in the streets. Every day comes news of fresh strikes in a variety of
industries —mainly the ready-made garment (RMG) sector, but also mill workers,
river transport workers, rail workers, journalists, lecturers and teachers. A
massive army and police presence around garment factories, in some cases
completely blockading and creating check points for entry to Export ProcessingZones, temporarily calmed things; but strikes continued to take place at
numerous factories, leading to solidarity strikes from nearby workplaces and
semi- spontaneous demonstrations.

TINTING WITH WHITE DISCHARGE EFFECT ON DENIM GARMENTS
TINTING:
Coloration that produces a very pale shade. A tint usually represents the minimum amount of color that will give perceptible appearance of coloration. In yarn processing, fugitive tints are used for identification, and then removed in wet processing.
Tinting (also called over-dyeing) Laundries often tint denim to try to make it look more vintage, or to achieve a different cast. The telltale signs of a pair of jeans that have been tinted are that the pocket lining and labels are dyed as well as the jeans.
TINTING WITH WHITE DISCHARGE EFFECT ON DENIM GARMENTS
The standard route to blasting/discharging/tinting is quite elaborate, in the light of three effects to be imparted on the same garment. There have been short cuts, which may be right/wrong/ingenious. If tinting is done on blasted/discharged areas, it obviously remains a spray method. However, if the tinting is overall, it follows the dyeing route. The process starts on gray garment being hand blasted followed by desizing and biopolishing. After drying the garment, tint-spray is given followed by air/machine drying and finishing. For tinting by dyeing method, the biopolished garment can straight away go for tinting wet-on-wet followed by finishing and drying.
In case of white discharge tinting the route would start with desizing-biopolishing on gray garment, peroxide bleaching after biopolishing being optional. After drying the garment, a potassium permanganate spray is given to areas where white discharge is aimed at. After air-drying for about 10-15 minutes, a neutralization step consisting of provide-acetic acid is given which is followed by hot and cold rinses. In case of spray tinting the garment will have to be dried first, whereas for overall tinting, dyeing the method could be followed wet-on-wet. Finally the finishing and drying would complete the process.

Sewing machine; Comparison between Pegasus sewing machine and Yamato sewing machine.
Pegasus and Yamato are the world class brand, both company are produce world class sewing machine. Both company have Single needle lockstitch sewing machine, 2 needle lockstitch sewing machine, Overlock sewing machine, Flatlock sewing machine, Feed of the arm sewing machine,Button hole and button attach sewing machine and many more. I am going to compare between Pegasus sewing machine and Yamato garments sewing machine.
Sewing Machine type
|
Pegasus Sewing Machine
|
Yamato Sewing Machine
|
Over lock/ neck join Sewing Machine
|
Normal neck join sewing machine of Pegasus is easy to operate and handle. It is easy to learn for an operate. Production rate high.
|
To install neck sewing machine joint three persons (technical manager, sr. service engineer, service engineer) take three days. From this point of I think that mechanical function of m/c this difficult and which may take long time to repair (if necessary) for a mechanics. Beside this it difficult to an operator to operate and production rate is lower than others.
|
Over lock m/c
|
Normal over lock of Pegasus is easy to operate. Its motor speed is high & production rate is also high. Over lock width can be increase at maximum label. It can fulfill every buyer requirement.
|
This sewing machine is good. It can be easily operate and user friendly. Its production rate is less than others but its production quality is good. If it is in operation, alter quantity will be reduced.
|
Flat lock m/c or bottom hem m/c
|
Motor speed is high. Easy to operate. Production rate is also high (230-260 pcs)/hr.
|
For bottom hem operation always needs to keep hand above the m/c bed which makes an operator uncomfortable. If operator keeps hand below then body hem cut, hem makes with raw-edge & sometimes occurs puckering. And its production rate is less then others (170-200 pcs)/hr.
|
Back tape m/c
|
Pegasus has no back tape sewing machine.
|
This sewing machine is good enough for back tape attach than others. But technical manager told that this m/c can not be idle i.e. by adding extra parts or accessories it can be used for body hem, neck t/s, arm hole t/s etc. But they did not show it.
|
If thread cut in Yamato sewing machine it requires spanner to wear thread and time consuming but in others m/c no spanner to wear thread, which save time. Personally I have talked to maintenance manager of Inter Stop and Dulal Brothers about Yamato sewing machine. They told me that Pegasus sewing machine is better than Yamato sewing machine because parts of this machine are not available, costly and can be purchased from their agent.
