Garments Manufacturing Sequence

Garments manufacturing follows a flowchart where in each steps


definite works are completed to carried out a complete garments.
Here I will show you all of the garments manufacturing steps that
you must follow to make a garment.
1. 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.

2. 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, dirts, and pleats,
ease allowance, any special design etc affairs. Pattern design
could also be done manually or with the help of computer.
3. 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.

4. 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.

5. 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.

6. Marker Making:
All the pattern pieces for all the required sizes are arranged n the
paper in such a way so that maximum number of garments could
be produced with minimum fabric wastag4e. Markers are made
for 6, 12, 18, 24 etc. pieces. Marker is also useful to estimate
fabric consumption calculations.

7. Spreading:
It is the process of arranging fabrics on the spreading table as per
length and width of the marker in stack form. Normally height of
the lay/fabric is limited upto maximum six inches high. But 4 inch
to 5 inch height of the lay is safe.

8. 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.

9. 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.

10. 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 pr line pr hour also varies from 100 to 150
pieces depending on specific circumstances. Number of sewing
machine arrangement per line may be upto 60 depending on
design and out put quantity of garment.

11. 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
correctionable, then the garment is separated as wastage.

12. 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.

13. 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.

14. 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. 15. Despatch: The
cartoons of the manufactured garments are delivered or placed in
the despatch department or finished product godown, from where
the garments lot is delivered for shipment.
