Firstly i would like to thank the Almighty Allah for giving me patience to conclude
my internship program & finally this industrial attachment. Preparing the
internship report based on Apparel Manufacturing Technology, I have
understood that it is very difficult to find out the basic and fundamental aspects
of apparel manufacturing are largely distant from the theoretical bookish
knowledge.
I would like to thank our chairman Dr. Shah Mohammad Fatah-Ur-Rahman,
Professor & Chairman, Dept. of Textile Engineering, Bangladesh University of
Business & Technology (BUBT). And also like to thank my supervisor teacher
Farhatun Nabi, lecturer, Department of Textile Engineering, Bangladesh
University of Business & Technology (BUBT) for her continuous support,
encouragement, suggestion, guidance and constructive criticism to get through
the industrial training. Without her cordial supervision it would be almost
impossible to prepare such a large report.
I am extremely delighted to express my indebtedness and deepest sense of
gratitude to my supervisor Mr. Saleck Hossin shopon Dyeing Manager, Textown
Group Limited (TTGL) for his kind permission for the training and his able
guidance, untiring efforts, stimulating influence and valuable comments during
the training period.
Special thanks to Md. Lokman hossin, Factory Manager, Textown Group Limited
(TTGL) for his cordial support during the period of internship.
I thank the management of Textown Group Limited (TTGL)) for giving me the
opportunity to undergo Industrial Training there. My gratitude also goes to all
engineers, officers, technicians, employees, stuffs, all section in-charges for their

INTRODUCTION
If the theoretical knowledge is a glass of water then the practical knowledge would be drinking
of the water. It is always very easy to make a man understand about a firebox by showing and
lighting practically rather than describing theoretically who has not ever seen a firebox. So, for
any technical education the practical experience is the most important as well as the theoretical
knowledge.
As we are studying in a technical line, it is always important for us to gather the practical
knowledge. Through our study life the only biggest chance for us to combine the theoretical
knowledge with the practical knowledge that is the Industrial Attachment period that comes
only once in the education life. So we can easily realize the importance of Industrial
Attachment. And in addition the knowledge we gathered from the industrial training reflects in
the report of industrial attachment note book.
So industrial attachment is the process where the trainee can blend his theoretical knowledge
with practical knowledge increasing his/ her ability of work, skillfulness, performance and
attitude and so on. It also provides sufficient knowledge about production management,
productivity evaluation, work study & efficiency, industrial management, production planning
and control, production cost analysis, inventory management, utility, maintenance and so on.
Industrial attachment makes us reliable to be accustomed with the industrial atmosphere and
also improve courage and inspiration to take self-responsibility.

Knitting:
Knitting is the process of producing a fabric by forming a series of connected loops from a
series of yarn. In this method fabric is produced by intermeshing of loops.
Objectives of knitting:
To produce fabric.
Produce fabric for making garments smoothly.
To minimize fabric cost.
For regular fabric supply.
Knitting Types:
There are two types of knitted fabric
1. Warp knitted fabric.
2. Weft knitted fabric.
Warp knitting: Each loop in the horizontal direction is made from a different thread and the number
of threads used to produce such a fabric is at least equal to the number of loops in a horizontal row.
Weft knitting: A horizontal row of loops can be made using one thread and the thread runs in
horizontal direction.
Basic knitting element:

1. Needle.
2. Sinker.
3. Cam.
Needle:
Function of needles: Needle is used to clear the old
loop from the hook & to receive the new loop above
it on the needle steam.
Types of needle:
In general there are three types of needles.
a) Bearded needle.
b) Latch needle.
c) Compound needle.
CAM:
Cams are the devices which convert the rotary m/c drive into a suitable reciprocating action for the
needles or other elements.
Types of cam
Two types of cam
A. Engineering cam
B. Knitting cam
a) Knit cam
b) Miss cam
c) Tuck cam
Function of CAM
Produce motion to needles.

Loop formation.
Holding down.
Knocking over.
Sinker:
This is secondary primary knitting element . it is a thin metal plate with an individual and collective
action approximate at right angles from the hook side between adjoin needles.
It may one or more of the following functions dependent upon the machines knitting action and
consequent sinker shape and movement.
Others Equipments used in Knitting Section:
GSM cutter
Electronic balance
Inspection m/c
Terms and definition of knitting:

Course A horizontal row of loops formed by the needles during one knitting cycle.
Wales A vertical column of loops formed by a single needle.
Loop- It is a basic unit consisting of a loop of yarn meshed at its base with previously basic unit.
Knitted loops are arranged in rows and columns roughly equivalent to the warp and weft of
woven structures termed Wales and courses respectively
Stitch- The smallest dimensionally stable unit of all knitted fabric is stitch. It
consists of a yarn loop which is held together by being intermeshed with another stitch
or other loop.
Stitch length - Stitch length is a length of yarn which includes the needles of the needle loop & half of
the sinker loop on either side of it. Generally the larger stitch length, the more extensible & lighter the
fabric & the poorer the cover, capacity & bursting strength.
Yarn count
Yarn count is the numerical system of expressing length per unit weight or weight per unit
length. Count express fineness or coarseness of yarn.
Direct system:
In direct system, yarn count is directly related to the yarn fineness. So, lower the count finner the
yarn and higher the count and coarser the yarn. This system is used for Polyester and Lycra and
other synthetic fibers.
Direct Count =
W l
w L
Where, W=weight of the sample

L=length of the sample
w=unit weight of the system
l=unit length of the system
Indirect system:
In indirect system, yarn count is inversely related to the yarn fineness. So, higher the count finner
the yarn and lower the count and coarser the yarn. This system is used for cotton, worsted &
woolen.
Indirect Count =
w L
W l
Where, W=weight of the sample

L=length of the sample
w=unit weight of the system
l=unit length of the system

Faults, Causes & Their Remedies in Knitting

1. Hole Mark
Causes:
Holes are the results of yarn breakage or yarn cracks.
During loop formation the yarn breaks in the rejoin of the needle hook.
If the yarn count is not correct on regarding structure, gauge, course and density.
Badly knot or splicing.
Yarn feeder badly set.
Remedies:
Yarn strength must be sufficient to withstand the stretch as well as uniform.
Use proper count of yarn.
Correctly set of yarn feeder.
Knot should be given properly.
2. Needle Mark
Causes:
When a needle breaks down then needle mark comes along the fabrics.
If a needle or needle hook is slightly bends then needle mark comes on the fabrics.
Remedies:
Needle should be straight as well as from broken latch.
3. Sinker Mark
Causes:
When sinker corrode due to abrasion then some times can not hold a new loop as a
result sinker mark comes.
If sinker head bend then sinker mark comes.
Remedies:
Sinker should be changed.
4. Star
Causes:
Yarn tension variation during production.
Buckling of the needle latch.
Low G.S.M fabric production.
Remedies:
Maintain same Yarn tension during production.
Use good conditioned needles.
5. Drop Stitches
Causes:
Defective needle.
If yarn is not properly fed during loop formation i.e. not properly laid on to the needle
hook.
Take-down mechanism too loose.
Insufficient yarn tension.
Badly set yarn feeder.
Remedies:
Needle should be straight & well.
Proper feeding of yarn during loop formation.
Correct take up of the fabric & correct fabric tension.
Yarn tension should be properly.
6. Oil stain
Causes:
When oil lick through the needle trick then it pass on the fabrics and make a line.
Remedies:
Ensure that oil does not pass on the fabrics.
Well maintenance as well as proper oiling.
7. Rust stain
Causes:
If any rust on the machine parts.
Remedies:
If any rust on the machine parts then clean it.
Proper maintenance as well as proper oiling.
8. Pin hole
Causes:
Due to break down or bend of the latch, pin hole may come in the fabric.
Remedies:
Change the needle
9. Grease stain
Causes:
Improper greasing
Excess greasing
Remedies:
Proper greasing as well as proper maintenance
10. Cloth fall-out

Causes:
Cloth fall- out can occur after a drop stitch especially when an empty needle with an
empty needle with closed latch runs into the yarn feeder and remove the yarn out of
the hook of the following needles.
Remedies:
Make sure all the latches of needle are closed with feeding yarn after a drop stitch.
11. Barre:
A fault in weft knitted fabric appearing as light or dark course wise (width wise) stripe.
Causes:
This fault comes from yarn fault.
If different micro near value of fiber content in yarn.
Different lusture, dye affinity of fiber content in yarn.
During spinning different similar classes of fiber is mixed specially in carded yarn &
these fibers have similar characteristics.
In draw fame different similar classes sliver is mixed and make one sliver.
Remedies:
We can use this fabric in white color.
12. Fly dust:
Causes:
In knitting section too much lint is flying to and fro that are created from yarn due to
low twist as well as yarn friction. This lint may adhere or attaches to the fabric
surface tightly during knit fabric production.
Remedies:
Blowing air for cleaning and different parts after a certain period of time.
By cleaning the floor continuously.
By using ducting system for cleaning too much lint in the floor.
Over all ensure that lint does not attach to the fabric.
13. Yarn contamination
Causes:
If yarn contains foreign fiber then it remains in the fabric even after finishing,
If lot, count mixing occurs.
Remedies:
By avoiding lot, count mixing.
Fault less spinning.
14. Yarn Faults:

Neps.
Slubs.
Yarn count variations.
Thick/Thin place in yarn.
Hairiness.

Batching
Batching is the process to get ready the fabrics which should be dyed and processed for
a particular lot of a particular order.
Function or Purpose of Batch Section
To receive the grey fabric roll from knitting section or other source.
Turn the grey fabric if require.
To prepare the batch of fabric for dyeing according to the following criteria
Order sheet (Received from buyer)
Dyeing shade (color or white, light or dark)
M/C capacity
M/C available
Type of fabrics (100% cotton, PE, PC, CVC)
Emergency
To send the grey fabric to the dyeing floor with batch card.
To keep records for every previous dyeing.
Proper batching criteria
To use maximum capacity of existing dyeing m/c.
To minimize the washing time or preparation time & m/c stoppage time.
To keep the no. of batch as less as possible for same shade.
To use a particular m/c for dyeing same shade.
Batch management
Primarily batching is done by dyeing manager taking the above criteria under consideration.
Batch section in charge receives this primary batch plan from dyeing manager. Sometime
planning is adjusted according to m/c condition or emergency.
Grey Fabric Inspection
The inspection and grading of fabric quality is one of the important functions of Quality Control
in the grey or finished state, the grading of fabric is a difficult task, taking two primary
considerations: as the frequency of effects and the seriousness of defects.
The Grading Has Two Primary Functions: First, to classify the fabrics according to standard
qualities based on the end-use and costumer demands and second, to supply information as to
the qualities actually being produced.
The Knitted fabric can be classified into three levels of quality, each one have a number of
points for defects as follows.
The First quality level .................40 points per 100 Linear Yards.
The Second quality level............ (40 80) points per 100 Linear Yards.
The Third quality level ............... 80 points or more per 100 Linear Yards.
Grading Procedure:
All open defects or major defects counted with 4 points per defect.
Surface defects over 9 inch length counted with 4 points per defect.
Surface defects 6 to 9 inches length counted with 3 points per defect.
Surface defects 3 to 6 inches length counted with 2 points per defect.
Surface defects up to 3 inches length counted with one point per defect.
Running defects, such as tucks, needle lines, barre, crack marks, are judgment defects.

Lab section
Laboratory
Laboratory is the heart of dyeing Industry. An efficient laboratory can increase the
efficiency of dyeing. So, laboratory in-charge is sometimes called pilot. Before bulk
production a sample is sent to buyer for approval. Laboratory supplies the recipe to the
floor.
Purpose of Laboratory:
Get color approval from buyer.
Recipe supply to the floor.
Shade correction.
Minimize the deviation between bulk and laboratory.
Sequence of lab operations:
A number of operations are done in lab section. This are
Sample/Swatch/Panton no. / TCX no. / TPX no. from the buyer
Determination of samples possible color combination by the help of Spectrophotometer or

manual
Dispersion by autodoser
Trial dyeing of the recipe
Unload
Normal wash
Hot wash with detergent
Oven drying
Ironing
Shade matching in light box ( If Ok then send to buyer for approval)
If not ok
Sample/Swatch from the buyer:

Swatch is received from the buyer & it comes to the lab section through the merchandiser.
Fabric & dye selection:
According to the buyer swatch, the type of fabric is selected & the dye selection depends on the
following factor:
The dye stuff contains Metamerism or not.
The dye stuff is suitable for producing particular color.
Sometimes buyers recommended the dye to produce particular color.
The cost of dye stuff.
Recipe prediction:
Recipe is determined by matching with reference book or Spectrophotometer.
By the spectrometer the std. of the swatch is saved in computer.
Then manually after selecting the dye some recipes are found with the best
suitable recipe comes first & then others.
If the recipe shows Metamerism then changes the selected dye.
Sampling & pipe ting:
According to the recipe, the required fabric, dyes & chemicals are weighted & stock solutions
are made. Then pipe ting is done according to the recipe. Stock solutions are made according to
the recipe%. Such as
For Dye
If recipe % (0.0001- <0.001) then stock solution % (0.01%)

If recipe% (0.001- <0.1) then stock solution % (0.1%)
If recipe % (0.1-0.8) then stock solution% (0.5%)
If recipe% (0.9-4.9) the stock solution% (2.5%)
If recipe % (5) then stock solution % (5%)
For Auxiliaries:
Salt 20% stock solution
Soda: 10% stock solution.
Acetic Acid: 0.5 g/l
Detergent: 200ml/l
Leveling agent: 3.5 g/l
Pipette use in lab section: 0.1 ml 2 ml & 5 ml to 20 ml.
Dyeing:
After completing pipe ting according to the recipe, the weighted fabric is taken in sample
dyeing m/c beaker & dyeing is completed. Here sample wt. 5gm & liquor ratio 1:10.
Dispatch:
After completing dyeing, the samples are checked by spectrophotometer or by eye vision in
verified matching cabinet. If it shows Metamerism then recipe correction is done & again
samples are prepared until no Metamerism & shade match occur. Then in a lab dip card 3
samples are attached. One card is sent to merchandiser & another to buyer through
merchandiser.
If the buyer chooses the sample then the recipe is send to the dyeing section for bulk
production through lab dip program card.
Lab Dip:
A lab dip is a swatch of fabric test dyed to hit a color standard. It is a process by which buyers
supplied swatch is matched with the varying dyes percentage in the laboratory with or without
help of spectrophotometer. Lab dip plays an important role in shade matching & this is an
important task before bulk production.
The main objectives in lab dip are as follows:
To calculate the recipe for sample dyeing

To compare dyed sample with swatch by light Box or spectroflash.
To calculate revise recipe for sample dyeing.

Dyeing:
Dyeing operations are used at various stages of production to add colour and intricacy to
textiles and increase product value. It chemically changes a substance so that the reflecting
light appears. Most dyeing is performed either by the finishing division of vertically integrated
textile companies or by specially dye houses. Specially dye houses operate either on
commission basis or purchase greige goods and finish them before selling them to apparel and
other product manufacturers. Textiles are dyed using a wide range of dyestuffs, techniques and
equipment. Dyes used by the textile industry are largely synthetic, typically derived from coal
tar and petrolium-based intermediates. Dyes are sold as powders, granules, pastes and liquid
dispersions with concentrations of active ingredients ranging typically from 20 to 80 percent.

FINISHING
Textile finishing, in a restricted sense, is the term used for a series of processes to which all
bleached, dyed, printed and certain grey fabrics are subjected before they are put on the
market. In fact, finishing includes the final treatment of every kind of fabric made from every
kind of fiber
Object of finishing:
To improve the appearance of the fabric, that is making it more attractive or lustrous by
operations.
To improve the feel of the fabric by softening, Stiffening etc.
To improve wearing qualities of the fabric by making it shrink resistant, crease resistant,
or free from pills and soiling.
To increase weight of the fabric.
To cover faults in the original fabric.
To make garments hold their shape and enable them to be worn without ironing.
To impart special properties to the fabric for specific end use.
To set the texture of certain fabrics and make others dimensionally stable.
To produce stronger and more durable fabrics.
To produce novelty effects.
To increase service ability and wash fastness.
Types of finishing:
1) Chemical finishing:
2) Mechanical finishing:
Chemical Finishing:
Chemical is used for it. Used to make glossy protection and it's expensive.
It's also two types:
1. Temporary: Starching, Weighting, Softening etc.
2. Permanent/Durable: Mercerizing, Resin, Water proof, Fire proof etc.
Physical/Mechanical Finishing:
Chemical is not used it. Used to control dimension and to improve appearance and handle. It's
less expensive.
Its two types:
1. Temporary: Calendaring, etc
2. Permanent/Durable: Rising, Sanforizing etc.

Quality control
Quality control concerned with the evaluation of test data & its application of the textile
process, raw materials, intermediate products & final products.
It is related not only with the cost of maintaining but also concerned with the presentation of
tangible values to measure quality & change in quality. In order to control quality one must
know about the consumers expectations.
Quality assurance
Quality assurance is defined as all those possible planned & systematic actions necessary to
provide adequate confidence than a product or service will satisfy given requirements for
quality. The Quality Assurance Department is assigned to maintain consistently uniform quality
of the material in process & various stages of its manufacturing.

On line quality control comprises with the new raw material, process control & finish fabric
inspection.
1.
Raw material control:
As the quality product depends upon the raw material quality assurance department must
ensure that the best quality of raw material is used in the production.
The chemical should be with a known concentration & high degree of purity.
The dye & chemical should be compatible with each other.
The fabric must be without faults, with uniform absorbency, & whiteness as per
requirement of the subsequent process.
2. Process control:
The method chosen for the process must be provided with the necessary parameters,
Temperature, PH, water level, Specific gravity should be checked at each stage of processes.
During dyeing samples are taken, & shade match with lab dip & when match allow for
bath drop.
If not properly match topping is done until the required shade come.
After neutralization sample is collected & match with lab dip.
Sample is collected after fixation & matched.
Last of all after softening sample is collected & match with lab dip.
Each batch should be match with each other.
During finishing temperature, speed, padder pressure, over feed should be controlled
as per recommendation.
G.S.M, width, spirality etc should be maintained as per buyer requirement.
3. Finish Fabric Inspection:
To ensure that only acceptable quality fabric is used for producing garments & proper
quantity of shipment is received from the supplier.

Apparel manufacturing is combination of group work. Different section is related with this apparel
manufacturing. We know that fabric is the basic materials for apparel manufacturing. Fabric may
be woven or knitted. Woven fabrics are converted into Shirt, Pant, Coat, Skirt, Dresses, Jackets and
others suitable apparel. Knitted fabrics are converted into T-Shirt, Polo-Shirt, Trouser, Sweater,
Underwear, Skirt and others apparel. Mainly dyed or printed finished fabrics are cut for apparel
manufacturing. Different designed fabrics are made in garments to fulfill the buyer requirements.
Garments are the final achievement of textile processing, which started from fiber as a raw
material of finished goods. After completing spinning, weaving, wet processing; the materials are
ready for apparel manufacturing. Apparel is made generally from dyed or printed fabrics. The
process of making a garment according to the pattern, desired design and style is called garment
manufacturing.

Sample section
Sampling of garments is given great emphasis. It determines the approval of future orders from
buyers and fetches business for a garment manufacturing or export company. Sampling is one of
key elements of the pre-production processes in a garment industry. Before a manufacturer
produces bulk orders, a prior sampling of styles is done to get approvals and jumpstart the
fabrication of garments. Samples of garments work as a bridge between buyers and the producers.
Sampling is not just for buyers, but the manufacturers can also derive estimates of yarn
consumption for development of fabric, dyeing, printing, and stitching cost for a particular style or
pattern given by the buyer. Companies can have a separate sampling department or a
merchandiser, who works closely with the sampling section to source raw materials, and processes
for developing a quality product for an affordable price
The details attached to the garments sample:
After the confirmation of order each sample sent to the buyer has the following deails attached to
it with the help of a tag. It contains the details pertaining to both what the buyer has demanded

Pattern making
An ornamental design or decorative element in a fabric . pattern may be produced either by the
construction of the fabric or by applying designs, by other means. For example printing,
embroidery.
Pattern is hard paper which is made by following all the specification of each and individual
components.
Pattern making method:
1. Computerized pattern making
2. manual pattern making
Computerized pattern making
At most large manufacturers, patterns are made on a computer with computer aided design (CAD)
systems, the pattern maker manipulating small graphic patterns on the computer screen with a
hand-held control device. Geometry drives can make an infinite number of changes to the shapes
and sizes the pattern including creating new design lines or adding pleats, fullness, and seam
allowances. To allow pattern makers to make patterns manually on a computer, another system
has been developed allowing the pattern maker to work life size on a sensitized table with
traditional tools and styles that is attached to the table and the computer.

MARKER MAKING:
It is a thin paper which contains all the necessary pattern pieces for all sizes for a particular style
of garments. It gives special instruction for cutting. It can be done both manually and
computerized
CONSIDERABLE POINTS BEFORE MARKER MAKING:
1.
2.
3.
4.
Fabric width (1/2) higher than marker width.

Fabric length higher than marker length (1 + 1).
The grain line should be parallel to the line of Wales in knit fabrics
.All the pattern pieces of garments should be along the same direction when laid on an
asymmetric fabric.
5. Considered garments production planning.
Marker making method:

Manual Method:
In TTL , marker Is made I n manual method. The method of marker making which is done by the
hand of people with his own planning is known as manual method of marker making
Marker Efficiency:
The marker planner measures his success by the efficiency of the marker plan. The following
formula is used to measure the efficiency
Marker efficiency =

Cutting section
Cutting section is the most important and risky section in garment industry. For a little mistake full
order may be cancelled. With the false measurement a big portion of garment may employed.
With very care this section is handled
Objectives of cutting section:
1. Prepare fabrics for readymade garments.
2. Cut fabrics according to design and pattern.
3. Prepare fabrics for sewing and also for printing and embroidery

Fabric Inspection:
When the fabrics are received from the dyeing and finishing section, it needs to be checked,
because, faulty fabrics can be supplied from dyeing and finishing. But the cutting section has to
check it. Otherwise the end products will be faulty. For this, the fabric is being inspected by the
quality inspector of the cutting section. They check the fabric fully and find out the faults. Then
mark it so that, these faulty portion of the fabric can be rejected during spreading and cutting.
Then the fabric is being stored for relaxation.
Fabric Relaxation:
When the fabric comes from the dyeing and finishing, the fabric remains a slightly hot. In dryer,
stenter and compactor heat is applied on fabric. So moisture is removed from the fabric and it is
not in actual condition. But if we keep the fabric in normal temperature and pressure for a certain
time, the fabric absorbs moisture from the atmosphere and regains its original nature. This
process is called fabric relaxation.
Relaxation Period:
Fabric relaxation is performed for a certain period. This time is varied from fabric to fabric. But the
minimum time of relaxation is twelve (12) hours. This time also may vary according to the buyers
recommendation. After fabric relaxation, different tests are performed for maintaining the proper
quality
Fabric Spreading:
This is a preparatory operation for cutting and consists of laying plies of cloth one on top of the
other in a predetermined direction and relationship between the right and wrong sides of the
cloth. The composition of each spread i.e. the number of plies of each color is obtained from the
cut order plan. Number of plies depends on:
Capacity of the cutting machine
Volume of production
Type of fabric itself (rough or slippery)
Thickness of fabric
Objects:
I.
II.
III.
To place the number of plies of fabric to the length of the marker plan correctly aligned as
to length and width and without tension.
To cut garments in bulk and saving in fabric through the use of multi garment marker plans
and the saving in cutting time per garment that result from cutting many plies at a time.
To make every ply plain and flat.
Types of Fabric Spreading:

The spreads can be of two basic types:
1. Flat spreads- all plies are of the same length.
2. Stepped spreads- this as the name suggests, is built up in steps, with all the plies in one
step having the same length. A stepped spread is generally used when the quantities to
be cut precludes the use of a flat spread. The cut order plan details the colors and ply
lengths for a stepped spread, if it is needed.

Requirements of fabric spreading:
1.
2.
3.
4.

Alignment of fabric plies

Correct ply tension
Fabric must be flat
Elimination of fabric faults
Correct ply direction and adequate lay stability
Elimination of static electricity
Avoidance of fusion of piles
8. Avoidance of distortion in spread

9. Easy separation of the cut lay into bundles
10. Matching checks or stripes
Fabric Spreading Method:
Manual method: in TTL , fabric spreading is done by manual method by hand.
By Hand: Fabric roll is spreaded on the table by two laborers according to the length & width of
marker. Sometimes it is done by entering a rod which is made by wood or metal in the center
paper table which is present in the center of the fabric roll.
Types of Fabric Lay:

Names of fabric
lay
1.Straight Lay
Description
2.Stepped lay
Every ply is not spreaded according to the full

length of marker but in stepped manner. It is
needed different types of marker for steeped lay
3.From right to
left
This type of lay is more wide and open. Fabric is

always spreaded in the same direction
4.From right to
right
This type of lay is more wide and open so that

more useful. It is needed for special spreading
machines to make this lay.
5.Zigzag lay
Fabric is spreaded without cutting from one end to

the other according to marker length and this is
continued. Is this way zigzag lay is made. This type
of lay is more used in garments industries. It is not
good for asymmetric fabric
Every ply is placed according to the marker length.

It is most common and most of the garments are
used this type of lay.

Fabric Cutting
Cutting is the process which cut out the pattern pieces from specified fabric for making garments.
Using the markers made from graded patterns and in accordance with the issue plan, fabrics are
cut to prepare garment assembly. This is the major operation of the cutting room, of all of the
operations in the cutting room this is the most decisive, because once the fabric has been cut, very
little can be done to rectify serious mistakes.
Requirements of cutting
Precision of cut: To ensure the cutting of fabric accurately according to the line drown of the
marker plan.
Clean edge: By avoiding the fraing out of yarn from the fabric edge. Cutting edge must be smooth
clean. Knife must be sharp for smooth or clean edge.
Consistency in cutting: All the sizing safe of the cutting parts should be same of knife should be
operated of the right angle of the fabric lay.
Factors involved in Cutting Fabrics: Factors affect the cutting process for fabrics are as follows:Nature of fabric (grain line shade, twill etc.)
Thickness of fabric.
Design characteristics of finished garment.
Machines and tables used.
Types of Cutting
Fully manual:
Hand operated scissor
Manually operated power knife:
Straight knife
Band knife
Round knife

6. Handle for the cutter to direct the blade.
1. Blade edge: Straight edge, Weave edge, saw edge, scattered edge, but straight edge is
mostly used.
2. . Most commonly used in garments industry in Bangladesh (99% used).
M/C description: The elements of a straight knife consists of
a) A base plate Usually in rollers for easy movement.
b) An electric motor.
c) Handle for the cutter to direct the blade.
d) Knife (Reciprocating motion).
e) Knife guard.
f) Grinding wheel used to sharp the knife during cutting.
g) Stand.
h) Roller wheel to move the machine over cutting table easily.
Advantages:
1. Comparatively cheap.
2. Can be easily transferred from one place to another place.
3. Round corners can be cut more precisely than even round knife.
4. Production speed is very good as up to 10 heights can be cut at a time.
5. Garment components can directly be separated from fabric lays.
6. Fabric can be cut from any angle.
9. Most commonly used in garments industries of Bangladesh (99%).
Disadvantages:
1. Sometimes deflecting may occur due to the weight of the motor.
2. Knife deflection is high in risk, when any height is too high.
3. Sometimes accident may happen.
Precaution to avoid blade deflection:
1.
2.
3.
Reducing lay height.

The weight of the motor should be light.
The operator should be skilled and conscious.
Spreading and Cutting Stage Problem:

Effect
Lack of Sufficient fabric Relaxation
Too many no of plies during spreading
Excessive dragging during spreading
Blunt knife edges
Cause
Operators are not allowing sufficient time for relaxation
Ply height was found to be more than 7
Higher dragging tension maintained between spreader
roller to lay
Edges of knife are not sharp and it leads to uneven shaping
Sticker Tagging:
After complete the cutting, the fabric is tagging by the sticker. The sticker tagging is an important
part in this section. Due to fabric numbering or batching the sticker is tag on the cutting fabric
surface.
Fig: Sticker Tagging for Batching

Bundling:
After cutting the fabric lay and tagging the sticker, 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 section
After receive the garments components from cutting section, all the garments parts are joined and sewn
as sequentially. Obviously all the components are sewn respects on buyer requirement.
Sewing section is the most important department 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.

Printing section
Textile printing is the process of applying colour to fabric in definite patterns or designs. In
properly printed fabrics the colour is bonded with the fibre, so as to resist washing and friction.
Textile printing is related to dyeing but in dyeing properly the whole fabric is uniformly covered
with one colour, whereas in printing one or more colours are applied to it in certain parts only,
and in sharply defined patterns.
Screen printing
Screen printing is a printing technique that uses a woven mesh to support an ink-blocking
stencil to receive a desired image. The attached stencil forms open areas of mesh that transfer
ink or other printable materials which can be pressed through the mesh as a sharp-edged
image onto a substrate. A fill blade or squeegee is moved across the screen stencil, forcing or
pumping ink through the mesh openings to wet the substrate during the squeegee stroke.
Basically, it is the process of using a mesh-based stencil to apply ink onto a substrate, whether
it be t-shirts, posters, stickers, vinyl, wood, or other material.

Finishing section
Finishing section is another important part for apparel industry. After production finishing guys
attach hang tag, bar-code sticker, price sticker etc properly according to buyer advice or demand
and after that they will input that garment item into a poly bag.
Finishing is the addition of special detailing such as pleats, embroidery and screen printing to a
garments. This includes hand stitching (unseen handwork done inside collars and lapel to given
them shape) and its automated substitutes. This may also include adding buttons, hooks, eyes or
trims as well as clipping loose threads. All finishing of moderate and lower priced garments is done
by machine.

Pressing or ironing
Pressing or ironing is one of the most important tasks in finishing section. It is done for giving final
finishing appearance to the apparel. After that, apparels are ready for packing.
Some pressing termed under pressing may be done in the course of assembling a garments for
example, ironing a collar. Most pressing is done after assembly folded instead of pressed. Although
pressing remains largely a manual task, new automated process exists that apply force and steam
to garments placed over a body form
Categories of pressing:
No pressing: Here pressing is not required, e.g. knitted garments such as undergarments, briefs
etc.
Minimum pressing: Only heat is applied to garments, such as sweater, T-shirt etc.
Under pressing: Before sewing some parts of garments are pressed for its proper finishing,
such as pants, coats/blazer etc.
Final pressing: After completing the garments final pressing is done then it is packed to a poly bag
for shipment.
Permanent pressing: Many fabric effects are made by heavy pressing; this is known as
permanent pressing, e.g. pleat of shirt, dirt of pant, lapel of coat etc.

Ironing:
This is a finishing process done by subjecting a cloth to heat & pressure with or without steam to
remove unintended creases and to impart a flat appearance to the or garments. Also, pressing is
done to introduce creases in the garments, in garments industries, pressing is called Ironing.
Objects of Ironing:
Remove of unwanted creases and crinkles.

Standup: Collar is situated when it is crinkle with body at 90 angel.

Semi standup: Collar is situated when it is crinkle with body at 45 angel.
Flat pack: Collar is totally laid down on the body of shirt.
Hanger pack: Shirt is exported with hanger packing form.
Packing
Packing is one of the most important parts of apparel manufacturing process. After completing the
entire manufacturing task, apparel is required to pack. In finishing section, packing is the last steps
before storing. Various types of packing are done and it depends on the type of apparel. After
packing, it placed in carton as per instruction. After cartooning, carton is stored in store section.
Then carton is delivered from the store for export. Types of Packing in Finishing Section: Different
types of packing are done in finishing section.
Followings are the most used packing types.

Garments inspection, Quality control & Quality assurance

Garments inspection
It becomes necessary to maintain the quality right from the production stage in order to deliver a
satisfactory final product to the consumer with the right quality which in turn results in getting
continuous orders from the same customers. The garment manufacturers inspect their products
by designated responsible inspectors then only the right quality product will reach the consumer.
Under quality assurance process, the bulk production is inspected before delivered to the
customers.
All garment retailers expect to sell high quality products from manufactures. The quality of the
garments any vary depends on the price market they are being made for so therefore buyers
expect manufacturers expect manufacturers to follow various methods of inspection techniques
all through the production and prior to shipment release from factory. Following correct
inspection procedures, inspection Systems and eventually shipment release gives the clear
judgment of the quality of the garment.
Types of Inspections:
Pre-production Inspection: This is done before production starts. It is done to cross cheek for final
Verification of bulk fabric and trims materials , styling , cutting way , manufacturing details and
workmanship of the garment or pre-production sample as per the customer requirement.
1st inline production inspection: This inspection is done at the start of production when first
production output of particular style of garments is inspected; to distinguish possible discrepancies
or variation and to do necessary corrections to be made bulk production. This is type of
inspections is done at preliminary stage of manufacturing of a style covering .mainly style
detail ,general appearance, workmanship, fabric quality . Trims and components. Lot color ,
printing ,embellishments and washing quality.
2nd inline inspection: This inspection is done during production to ensureinitial discrepancies have
been corrected and rectified. This inspection is a follow-up of the 1st inline production inspection
and is generally carried out 1st line inspection when discrepancies have been detected at the time.
Final Random Inspection: This inspection is carried out when the production of the total quantity
of an order or partial delivery is completed. A sample lot will be selected from the order and a
percentage of the garments will be inspected ,this percentage usually being stipulated by the
buyer . The AQL sampling inspection system as specified by the buyer.
Garment Defects Classification

Once the samples are selected, each article is to be individually inspected. Defects detected during
an inspection are buyer specific so therefore vary from one byyer to another. Defects are classified
within the following categories:
Critical Defect: A serious defect that can cause harm or injury to the user and/or result in a
hazardous condition.
Major Defects: A defect that falls to meet the mandatory regulations directly affecting the
usability, salability, safety and value of the merchandise or as specified by customer buyer
are considered as major defects and are generally non repairable for example fabric hole,
shading among panel, wrong measurement, foreign yarn, dye patches etc, The
measurement tolerate level may vary from customer to customer.
Minor Defects: A defect that does ot adversely affect the usability of the product but does
consists of a deviation from the original sample and may affect the sale of the of the
product. Some of these defects are due to workmanship and some can be repairable but
still can deteriorate the serviceability of the merchandise for example, stain, skip stitch,
wavy bottom hem etc.
Quality
Quality is defined as that combination of design and properties of materials of a product which are needed
for the intended end use and level of the market in which it is sold.
Quality means customer needs is to be satisfied. Failure to maintain an adequate quality standard can
therefore be unsuccessful. But maintaining an adequate standard of quality also costs effort. From the first
investigation to find out what the potential customer for a new product really wants, through the processes
of design, specification, controlled manufacture and sale.
Quality Assurance
"The establishment and maintenance of ALL activities and functions concerned with the
attainment of requisite quality"
Quality Control
"The systems required for programming and co-coordinating the efforts of the various groups in
an organization to maintain the requisite quality" As such Quality Control is seen as the agent of
Quality Assurance or Total Quality Control
Methods of quality control:
Basically two methods are used for garments quality control
i) Testing
ii) Inspection.
Garments Inspection:
Inspection can be defined as the visual examination or review of ray materials (such as fabric,
buttons, zippers, sewing threads, trims etc.), partially completely finished garments in relation to
some standards, specifications or requirements as well as measuring the garments to check if they
meet the required measurements.
Objectives:
The main objective of inspection is the1) Detection of defects
2) Correcting the defect or defective garments as early as possible in the manufacturing process so
that times are money are not wasted later.

requirements.
Merchandising
Apparel Merchandising is a well-known job profile in apparel industry. Outside the apparel
industry, many know this term as well. Apparel merchandising is generating a lot of value to
apparel consumers.
Merchandising is the business art of matching goods to the needs and preferences of customers
to ensure shelf off take". In other word merchandising is the marketing activity responsible for
ensuring a products desirability, both in qualitative and quantitative.
Merchandising word is originated from Merchant or Shopkeeper. The duty of the shopkeeper is to
arrange right products with right price before a consumer decides to buy or knows about the
product from promotion or media. If a merchant fails to supply goods on time or fails to supply the
right packaging, customer will go to other shops and buy the products from competitors, who keep
the desired product in stock.
Merchandising is a process or function for what to buy and how to buy for sale.
Merchandiser
The person who is related in merchandising is called merchandiser. The merchandiser coordinates
with the design team to effectively present the product or product line. He or she develops colors
and specifications, and performs market research to determine the most effective ways to sell and
promote the product. This person needs strong communication and negotiation skills and visual
and analytical abilities. He or she also needs to be a creative and innovative thinker.
Types of Merchandising:
Two types of merchandising done in garments exports:
1. Marketing merchandising.
2. Product merchandising.
Marketing merchandising:
Main function of marketing merchandising is
Product development.
Costing.
Ordering marketing merchandising is to bring orders costly products
development and it has direct contact with the buyer.
Product merchandising:
Product merchandising is done in the unit. This includes all the responsibilities from sourcing to
finishing i.e. first sample onwards, the products merchandising work start and ends till shipment.
A Merchandisers key responsibilities is as follows:

When all the items (fabric and accessories) needed to manufacture a particular style of garment
are attached on a board as a sample by using both side adhesive tapes, it is called Swatch Card.
Separate swatch card is prepared for different style of garment.
The objective of making 'Swatch Card1 is to assess the quality for production
The items attached in a swatch card are Fabric - separately for each different color.
Thread - for different count and type
Button - for different Ligne Number
Label - for different types (main, size & care label etc.) and for Different size (2T, 3T etc.).

And for each production unit.
Importance of Swatch Card:
For a merchandiser this is very important for continuing his job.

Without this he cannot move his arena-It is chat where all materials and accessories are
present with their color combination. For this, it is much more important to lake approval
from the buyer as well as to give the appropriate instructions to the supplier to supply the
necessary and appropriate goods
Maintenance
Maintenance is a procedure by which we can maintain active functioning in operation
according to the behavior and utility of a particular element. Machine, buildings and other
facilities are subjected to deterioration due to their use and exposure to environmental
condition. Culminates in rendering these service facilities unserviceable and brings them to a
standstill. In Industry, therefore has no choice but to attend them from time to time to repair
and recondition them so as to elongate their life to the extent it is economically and physically
possible to do so. In engineering, we use this terminology for maintaining smooth and
uninterrupted performance of machines, tools and metallurgical characteristics in practical uses
Maintenance is carried out by electrical & mechanical departments. Now a days maintenance
is essential for the modern time industrialization
Object of maintenance
To avoid any kind of accident by checking the m/c parts & changing the parts which are
damaged.
To ensure production & delivery time to customer.
To avoid the breakdown of m/c to facilitate the smooth running of production.
To get the maximum constant production from m/c.
To modify the machine tools to meet the need for production.
To keep the factory plants, equipments, machine tools in an optimum working
condition.
To keep the production cycle within the stipulated range.
To modify the machine tools to meet the need for production

Periodic Maintenance:
Periodic maintenance of different machines is carried out by expert engineer period of time. It
is time-based maintenance and pre-planned to perform on machine and equipments. Normally
in case of dyeing machine, complete checking of different important parts is done after 30 days.
Preventive Maintenance:
Preventive Maintenance refers to only a part of a good maintenance programmed. It consists of
routine actions taken in a planned manner to prevent break-down and to ensure operation
accuracy to the extent it is economically and practically possible to do so. Lubrication and
inspection are the two constituents of preventive maintenance. Lubrication insures long life
and safe working of equipment without mishaps. Inspection tries to detect faults in a
equipment and facility so that repairs and replacement may be undertaken before the faults
assume the proportion and shape of a break down.
Breakdown Maintenance:
Breakdown maintenance practice allows a machine or facility to run without much of routine
attention, till it actually, breaks down to be then put back into commission. Type: gravity, place
and time of breakdown are of a random nature. This practice, therefore, leads to disruption of
production plans. It also makes it impossible to plan the workload and distribution of
maintenance work force for a balanced attention of all equipment. It increases over time
payment and involves prolonged down time due to non- availability of requisite man-power
and spares. This practice, consequently, accepts a lower level of organizational efficiency, and
cannot be recommended as general practice for all types of equipment.
It is, however, an economical way of maintaining certain non-critical items whose repair and
down time costs are less this way than with any other system of maintenance.

EFFLUENT TREATMENT PLANT

Environmental problems of the textile industry are mainly caused by discharges of wastewater.
Textile processing employs a variety of chemicals, depending on the nature of the raw material
and end product. Some of these chemicals are different enzymes, detergents, dyes, acids, sodas
and salts. Industrial processes generate wastewater containing heavy metal contaminants.
Since most of the heavy metals are non-degradable into non-toxic end products, their
concentrations must be reduced to acceptable levels before discharging them into the
environment. Otherwise these could pose threats to public health and/or affect the aesthetic
quality of portable water. According to World Health Organization (WHO) the metals of most
immediate concern are chromium, zinc, iron, mercury and lead. Various types of treatment
processes are adopted to dye or print or finish the textile materials. Different types of textile
process could generate different types of effluent.

CONCLUSION
For every person who is fresher in the field of textile, industrial training works like learning
route. This course gives us the opportunity to move liberally in every section of the industry to
learn the industrial work & follow the process sequence virtually. From our two months
observation of the industry along with research & development section specially, we can say
that in the knitting, dyeing & garments sector this industry has very strong possibility because
the industry is running with all modern machineries & very knowledgeable persons are working
all the time with their maximum merit. We just think the capacity of the industry should be
developed with the amount of order the industry is being taking.
This attachment, act as a bridge to minimize the gap between theoretical and practical
knowledge. Undoubtedly, this attachment taught us more about textile technology, industrial
management & production process. Besides it gave us the first opportunity to work in an
industry. We believe that, the experience of this industrial attachment will help us in our future
career as textile technologist/engineer.
We are fortunate enough that we have got an opportunity to have training in this mill. During
the training period we have received enough co-operation and association from the authority
and found all personnel. All stuffs and officers were very sincere and devoted their duties to
achieve their goal.
We tried our best to gather all necessary information but it is true that within this short period
it is quite impossible to achieve 100% success but as a whole this industrial training was a
satisfactory one and once again wed would like to thank the authority of Textown Group
limited (TTGL) as well as our honorable teachers for their altruistic help and advice.
