2. COMPOANY ORGANOGRAM

2.1 Human Resource Department

Human resource is a term with which many organizations describe the combination of

traditionally administrative personnel functions with performance management, Employee

Relations and resource planning. The objective of Human Resources is to maximize the return

on investment from the organization's human capital and minimize financial risk. It is the

responsibility of human resource managers to conduct these activities in an effective, legal, fair,

and consistent manner.

Human Resource department (HRD) practices Human Resource Management in an organization

(HRM). This is the strategic and coherent approach to the management of an organization's most

valued assets - the people working there who individually and collectively contribute to the

achievement of the objectives of the business. The terms "human resource management" and

"human resources" (HR) have largely replaced the term "personnel management" as a

description of the processes involved in managing people in organizations. Human Resource

management is evolving rapidly. Human resource management is both an academic theory and a

Page 15: Industrial Attachment of Norban Comtex Ltd.

Pag

e15

business practice that addresses the theoretical and practical techniques of managing a

workforce.

The basic concept that HRD practices is that humans are not machines; therefore we need to

have an interdisciplinary examination of people in the workplace. Fields such as psychology,

industrial engineering, industrial and organizational psychology, industrial relations, sociology,

and critical theories: postmodernism, post-structuralism play a major role.

Human resources management comprises several processes. Together they are supposed to

achieve the above mentioned goal. These processes can be performed in an HR department, but

some tasks can also be outsourced or performed by line-managers or other departments.

Recruitment,

Induction and Orientation,

5. Production Planning, Sequence & Operations:

5.1 Production Planning:

Production planning is a suitable & clear study and pre-arranging the technique involve to a long

series of operation for achieving best possible time by using men, machine, materials present in

industry.

Production Engineering:

The engineering approach which is used applied in every stage of a production process of a

product is known as production engineering.

Production engineering includes:

Ensure smooth production

Involves with maintenance management

It is applied in every stages of production.

5.2 Garments Production Processes:

Design/Sketch:

For the production of knit garments, or woven garments a sketch of a particular garment

including its design features is essential to produce on paper so that after manufacturing of that

garment could be verified or checked whether could be done manually or with the help of

computer.

Pattern Design:

Hard paper copy of each component of the garment of exact dimension of each component is

called pattern. The patterns also include seam allowance, trimming allowance, dirt’s, and pleats,

ease allowance, any special design etc. affairs. Pattern design could also be done manually or

with the help of computer.

Sample Making:

The patterns are used to cut the fabric. Then the garment components in fabric form are used to

sew/assemble the garment. Sample garment manufacturing is to be done by a very efficient and

technically sound person.

Production Pattern:

The patterns of the approved sample garment are used for making production pattern. During

production pattern making, sometimes it may be necessary to modify patterns design if buyer or

appropriate authority suggests any minor modification.

Grading:

Normally for large scale garments production of any style needs different sizes to produce from

a set of particular size of patterns, the patterns of different sizes are produced by using grade rule

which is called grading.

Page 32: Industrial Attachment of Norban Comtex Ltd.

Pag

e32

Marker making:

Marker is a thin paper which contains all the pattern pieces of a garment. It is made just before

cutting and its purpose is to minimize the wastages. The width of a marker is equal to the width

of the fabric and it should not be greater than the width of the fabric i.e. the width of the marker

is kept less than or equal to the width of the Fabric.

The pattern pieces should be placed very carefully in such a way that it will obviously minimize

wastages.

Objects of marker making:

- To reduce cost;

- To improve the quality of the garments;

- To reduce the cutting time;

- To facilitate large scale production.

Spreading

Spreading means the smooth laying out of the fabric in superimposed layers of specific length.

The cutting marker paper is laid in the top of the fabric layer. The usable width of the fabric

constraints the maximum width of the marker paper. During spreading number of the plies

should be not more than three hundreds but it depends on the thickness of the fabric and the

height of the cutting knife.

For example: if the thickness of the fabric is higher than the number of plies mentioned above

would not valid and in case of straight knife cutting instrument the maximum lay height should

be 70% of the blade height.

Fabric Cutting:

On the fabric lay/spread the marker paper is placed carefully and accurately, and pinned with the

fabric to avoid unwanted movement or displacement of the marker paper. Normally straight

knife cutting machine is used to cut out the garment component as per exact dimension of each

patterns in stack form, care must be taken to avoid cutting defects.

Sorting/ Bundling:

After cutting the entire fabric lay, all the garments components in stack form is shorted out as

per size and color. To avoid mistake in sorting, it is better to use code number on each pattern.

Sewing or Assembling:

It is the most important department/ section of a garment manufacturing industry. Sewing

machines of different types are arranged as a vertical line to assemble the garments. Sequence of

types of sewing machine arrangement depends on sequence of assembling operations. Number

of sewing machine per line varies from 20 nos to 60 nos depending on the style of the ga4rmnet

to be produce. Production per line per hour also varies from 100 to 150 pieces depending on

specific circumstances. Number of sewing machines.

Page 33: Industrial Attachment of Norban Comtex Ltd.

Pag

e33

Inspection:

Each and every garment after sewing passes through the inspection table/ point, where the

garments are thoroughly and carefully checked to detect/find any defect if present in the

garment. The defects may be for example variation of measurement, sewing defect, fabric

defects, spots etc. if the defect is possible to overcome, then the garment is sent to the respective

person for correction. If the defect is not correction able, then the garment is separated as

wastage.

Pressing/ Finishing:

After passing through the inspection table, each garment is normally ironed/ pressed to remove

unwanted crease and to improve the smoothness, so that the garments looks nice to the customer.

Folding of the garment is also done here for poly packing of the garments as per required

dimension.

Final Inspection:

It is the last stage of inspection f the manufactured garments on behalf of the garment

manufacturing organization, to detect any defective garments before packing.

Packing:

After final inspection, the garments are poly-packed, dozen-wise, color wise, size ratio wise,

bundled and packed in the cartoon. The cartoon is marked with important information in printed

form which is seen from outside the cartoon easily.

Dispatch:

The cartoons of the manufactured garments are delivered or placed in the dispatch department or

finished products go down, from where the garments lot is delivered for shipment.

DESCRIPTION OF PRODUCTION PROCESS:

In every mill, there maintains a sequences in production processing. It is also followed in this

mill where we were in industrial attachment. The process sequences are in list below:

1) Firstly, knitting manager gets a production shit from the merchandiser as accordance as

consumer requirements then he informs or orders production officer about it.

2) Production officer informs technical in charge and knows about machine in which the

production will be running.

3) Technical in charge calls for leader of mechanical fitter troops, they two take decision about

machine for production considering machine condition, production capacity, maintenance

complexity, etc.

4) Production officer with experienced mechanical fitter adjusts required stitch length and grey

GSM for required final GSM.

5) Supervisor checks daily production regularity and make operator conscious about finishing tin

due time.

6) Operators operate machine in high attention as if there were no faults in the fabrics. If he

thinks or sure about any fabric fault, then he calls for the mechanical fitters in duty. Mechanical

fitter then fixes it if he can or he informs technical in charge. Then he comes in spot.

3. No. of feeds or feeders in use;

4. Machine Gauge;

5. Count of yarn;

6. Required time (M/C running time);

7. Machine running efficiency.

8. Shade%

RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN KNITTING PARAMETERS:

1. Stitch length increase with the increase of GSM.

2. If stitch length increase then fabric width increase and WPI decrease.

3. If machine gauge increase then fabric width decrease.

4. If yarn count increase (courser) then fabric width increase.

5. If shrinkage increases then fabric width decrease but GSM and WPI increase.

6. for finer gauge, finer count yarn should use.

7. Grey GSM should be less than finish GSM.

5.5 PRODUCTION CALCULATION:

5.6 METHODS OF INCREASING PRODUCTION:

By the following methods the production of knitted fabric can be increased –

1. By increasing m/c speed: Higher the m/c speed faster the movement of needle and ultimately

production will be increased. But it has to make sure that excess tension is not imposed on yarn

because of this high speed.

2. By increasing the number of feeder: If the number of feeder is increased in the

circumference of cylinder, then the number of courses will be increased in one revolution at a

time.

3. By using machine of higher gauge: The more the machine gauge, the more the production is.

So by using machine of higher gauge production can be increased.

4. By imposing automation in the m/c:

a) Quick starting & stopping for efficient driving system.

b) Automatic m/c lubrication system for smoother operation.

CHAPTER-10

10. Cost Analysis:

Costing is a very important part for selling or exporting any item. In case of a garment, before

costing, consumption is needed. When we find the required amount of raw material and their

prices we can calculate the cost of a product very easily.

10.1 Consumption Formula of Knitted fabrics:

FABRIC OR BODY CONSUMPTION:

(Body length+ Sleeve length+ Allowance x Chest + Allowance x 2 x GSM /

10000000) x 12 x 10% (+)

= Result kg. /Dozen.

So,

BL+SL+ Allowance= 10 cm. Allowance.

When keep the chest allowance then body width, chest width and bottom

width which are big (cm) with (4 cm+) Added.

10% overall Process Loss.

1 dozen= 12 pcs.

BODY CONSUMPTION BY MARKER:

Length x width x GSM x12 / 1000 / 1550 / Ratio x 12%

DIA MEASUREMENT:

Chest or Bottom + Allowance / 2.54

=Dia / Result

So,

1 inch = 2.54 cm

When I dia measurement then chest or bottom with (4-6 cm) allowance added.

SELF FABRIC OR RIB FABRIC NECK CONSUMPTION:

Total Neck Length = Front neck drop + Back neck drop x 2

= Total neck length / Result.

(Total Length + Allowance x Neck Width + Allowance x 2 x GSM /10000000) x 12

x 10 %(+)

= Result kg. / Dozen.

Page 61: Industrial Attachment of Norban Comtex Ltd.

Pag

e61

So,

TL + Allowance = 2 cm

NW + Allowance = 2 cm

2 mean, Double part.

10% overall process loss.

SELF OR RIB FABRIC NECK DIA MEASUREMENT:

Neck opening or Width + Neck drop x 2 /2.54

= Result.

PANT & TROUSER OR PAJAMA CONSUMPTION:

(Length + Allowance x dia x 2 x GSM / 10000000) x 12 x 10 %(+)

= Result kg. / Dozen.

So,

L + Allowance # with self-fabric waist minimum (12 cm) Allowance added.

Without self-fabric waist minimum (8 cm) Allowance added.

Allowance minimum 15 cm added with Hip or Dia.

DIA = Hip + Allowance / 2.54

So,

1 inch = 2.54 cm.

POCKET CONSUMPTION:

Length + Width + Allowance.

So,

Allowance minimum 5 cm added with (L+ W).

10.2 CARTON DIMENTION:

Type of Carton

1. DEPEND ON PAPER:

o Khaki Carton Or Brown Carton

o Duplex Carton

o Box Carton

2. DEPEND ON STITCHING: Gum Pasting Carton.

3. DEPEND ON PLY:

3 Ply Carton

5 Ply Carton

7 Ply Carton

4. DEPEND ON LINER:

Both Side Liner Carton

Out Side Liner Carton

5. DEPEND ON SIZE:

Master Carton

Inner Carton m

Carton Measurement:

FORMULA (1) = (L+W) (W+H)X2 in cm

100X100(Without Wastage)

FURMULA (2) = (L+W+6) X (W+H+4) X 2

100X100 (Include Wastage)

PRICE = (L+W) (W+H) X 2

100x100 x Rate per Square Meter

= Rate/P

Page 63: Industrial Attachment of Norban Comtex Ltd.

Pag

10.3 BUTTON LINER (FIND OUT FORMULA):

1 GG = 144 Dozen.

1 GG = 1728 pcs.

Liner = Button Dia / 0.61

= Result / liner.

So,

Always Button liner is plural number.

As like 16,18,20,22,24

YARN BOOKING

Fabric yarn (kg) + Process Loss.

= Result / kg.

So,

Process loss keep the 10% added with total fabric.

10.4 SEWING THREAD CONSUMPTION:

Cone Quantity = per garments thread x garments qty. x qty. in cone.

Plain Machine : 1” for 2.75”

Over lock (3 Thread) : 1” for 14.5 “

Over lock (4 Thread) : 1” for 16.5”

Over lock (5 Thread) : 1” for 18.5”

Flat lock (3 Thread) : 1” for 13.5”

Flat lock (4 Thread) : 1” for 16”

Picot : 1” for 21”

Zigzag : 1” for 22”

Kansai Machine : 1 “ for 11”

So,

1 Cone = 4000 meter.

Should be 40% wastage with the following consumption.

It may more or less for sewing stitch.

Page 64: Industrial Attachment of Norban Comtex Ltd.

Pag

e64

CALCULATION CUBIC METER (CBM):

CBM = Carton length x Carton width x Carton height x Carton Qty. / 1000000

= CBM / Result.

So,

100 cm x 100 cm x 100 cm = 1000000

20 Feet = 28-31 CBM

40 Feet = 56-62 CBM

10.5 MARKER CONSUMPTION (FORMULA):

Open Dia = Marker length x 2.54 x Marker width x 2.54 x GSM / 10000000 / Marker

Pcs x 12 x 10% (+).

= Result kg. / Dozen

Tube Dia = Marker length x 2.54 x Marker width x 2.54 x GSM /1000000 / Marker Pcs x 12

x 10% (+).

= Result kg. / Dozen

Costing: Merchandise makes a cost sheet to see if the product is feasible or not in terms of cost and revenue.
