Fabric Optimization
since 2007
50-60% of the Cost of Garment is Fabric. That is where we are focussing !
Reducing fabric consumption project is the LOWEST HANGING FRUIT – highest ROI from Garmenting/Apparel Industry.
Combination of FO software & SOP & training will bring a guaranteed 1% fabric saving (in some cases 2-3% is achievable)
FO – FABRIC OPTIMIZATION project is concentrating on 5 topics:
- – synchronization between FABRIC USABLE WIDTH and marker width
- – reducing END LOSSES as minimum possible according with BEST PRACTICE
- – getting the highest possible MARKER EFFICIENCY according with KPI and the CAD software capabilities
- – DIGITAL REGISTRATION of all fabric characteristics along the whole process – Fabric receiving – Fabric testing – Marker making – Sorting & preparing rolls – Spreading – Cutting – Preparation & bundelling
- – FABRIC QUALITY DEFECTS are digitally registered as well as REAL FABRIC WASTAGES during spreading. BIG DATA analyses estimating FABRIC WASTAGE ahead of the spreading process
FO software will track the fabric from the moment of unloading trucks and warehouse registration till cut-parts are bundled and WIP Sewing stock is prepared.
Project deliverables
- Receiving fabric rolls - measure width and legth of each roll & issue ROLL ID
- Fabric Quality Control - digital registration using 4 POINT SYSTEM international method
- Fabric testing registration - shrinkage, shades and any other physical & chemical tests required
- PRODUCTION MARKER FORM - FO software provide fabric sorting reports based on usable width, shrinkage, shades., which Marker maker uses to create spreadings. HIGH ACCURACY IN CALCULATING FABRIC CONSUMPTION
- Allocation of fabric ROLL ID to each spreadings
- Cutting room REAL-TIME tracking - quantity & progress of cutting
- Digitally registration of fabric wastage & leftovers on Tabs installed on spreading tables
FULL CONTROL OVER THE MOST VALUABLE COST
