This book was released on 2020-03-11 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While there is pressure (from buyers), inclination (within self to do better) and a heightened aspiration among apparel manufacturers to use Industrial Engineering (IE) like other more industrialized sectors, there is no specific book as such dealing with IE in relation to apparel manufacturing. The existing books that are already written on IE possess academic rigour and generic functions applicable across industries, thus making it difficult for the practitioners to refer and clear discrete doubts related to apparel manufacturing. Undoubtedly, work study is the centrepiece of Industrial Engineering; however apart from work study, industrial engineers in apparel industry are also supposed to perform various other functions like preparing operation breakdown and operation flow chart, selecting machine type and attachment and workaids, planning machine layout for maximizing unidirectional material movement, optimising inventory and storage space and maintaining workplace health and safety. These are some of the areas that often lack significant attention. This practitioner’s handbook is an amalgamation of theory and practices, including steps of implementation and common mistakes. A balanced approached is taken to make it equally meaningful and useful for the academics as well as the industry. A unique section titled “industry practices” is incorporated at the end of each chapter which shares the typical practices, constraints and benefits accrued by the industry, which will give meaningful insight to the readers and help them relate theory with actual practice.

This book was released on 2020-06-16 with total page 51 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There is surely a bridge between the management goal and the performance of employees working to achieve that goal, be it any industry and the apparel sector is not an exception. Designing a workplace that can bridge this gap to deliver the maximum output is an important area of concern. Though, there are many technologies available in the market today that can help the organizations to overcome the challenges and compete with their competitors. One of the major challenges is the cost associated with technologies which makes it difficult to be opted by small manufacturers and secondly, the lack of technical know-how as well as understanding of the technology. One of the proven solutions is: changing the workplace into an engineered workplace that can help the manufacturers in achieving the desired goals and targets with maximum efficiency and effectiveness. This series will take the garment manufacturers through a number of articles that will help them identify new ways and methodologies that will result in improved productivity and the key of all the articles remains the same: re-engineering the current workplace into a workstation.

Download or read book Future Factory of Apparel Manufacturing written by Dr. Prabir Jana and published by Apparel Resources Pvt. Ltd.. This book was released on 2020-11-05 with total page 87 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Apparel manufacturing globally remains the same over the last fifty years; only migrated from one country to another in search of cheap labour. Notwithstanding, the changing economics of production and distribution, shifts in consumer demand, the emergence of “fast fashion” and the political agenda of reshoring and sustainable manufacturing are pushing apparel manufacturers to explore radically new ways of creating and capturing value. The fourth industrial revolution more commonly known as Industry 4.0 has already brought a plethora of technologies for adoption in manufacturing. The increased processing power of computing and miniaturization of chip size is making things earlier thought impossible, possible. The reduction in cost of data processing, storing and transferring has made AI and ML affordable for commercial use. The mighty robots changed themselves to safe co-bots to work alongside human workers. A wind of change is visible, and the apparel manufacturing industry is also embracing newer technologies and manufacturing concepts to herald in the new era of future manufacturing. This book details how different technologies are going to shape apparel manufacturing factories of the future.
