Cutting department in the garment industry
The cutting room is a part of the garment industry where clothes should be cut according to the pattern; Cut and sew the parts to bring the garment form. Cutting is the most sensitive operation in the garment industry, cutting man work precision is key here to maintain good cutting quality. If you are involved in the garment industry or the garment manufacturing process you should know how to cut your work activities. There are certain rules and procedures to be followed by cutting the section. I am giving the cutting process flow chart below for your easy understanding.
Cutting Working Process Flow Chart
Cutting plan based on shed band record
↓
Accept details of PO sheets, tech packs and others
↓
Obtain fabric from a store as per requirements
↓
Loosen the fabric if necessary with the record
↓
Create a marker to determine the cost
↓
Markers and pattern cross checks (ratios, grain lines, jumping, etc.)
↓
Spreading according to marker length
↓
Spreading quality control
↓
Fabric defects and others random quality checks
↓
A cutting (if skiing is required by hand during check fabric) and cutting band knives (small panels such as single flies etc.)
Cut quality control
↓
Randomly check the panel with the hard pattern
↓
Check the panel with CAD marking paper
↓
Layer numbering and bundling
↓
100% panel check
↓
Replace the defective parts according to the shade
↓
The cut part from the input is ready.
↓
Fusing and sewing supplies as per approved requirements and proportions
Garment Cutting Department Flow Chart:
The process flow is briefly described:
Loosening of fabric
Spandex fabrics can be loosened for 24 to 48 hours before spreading according to customer requirements. The looseness of the cotton fabric will depend on the requirements of the customer.
Pre-spreading and spreading quality control
Examine patterns and markers using approved samples
Pattern grain line
Spread the length marking table with allowances
Spread according to the shade using a fabric shade chart
Spreading errors such as tilting, bending, skew, narrow product, excitation, and identifying visual defects.
Cut panel inspections
1. A quality inspector will inspect the panel using hard pattern after cutting the top, middle and bottom from three separate positions.
2. If there is any significance, a correction will be immediate. If the panel is found from the strict patterns, it will have to cut the extra part. If the panel is subtracted from the hard pattern, the fabric must be placed under the marker according to the layout chart for reconstruction.
3. All cut panels will be inspected to detect any fabric defects. If any defective panels are found, the shades and patterns will be relocated according to the late chart following the grain line.
Production Order Sheet: The cutting department first takes the PO sheet. They look for all the details on the PO sheet, especially the size breakdown, size-based and color-based order quantities.
Accepts Patterns: They accept patterns approved by the sample department.
Marker Making: After receiving the pattern they mark according to the order sheet and pattern size.
Accepts the fabric: The main raw material of the fabric cutting department. All success depends on the cut. So the cutting section has to become serious when they take the fabric. The right fabric for the right marker or not.
Spread the fabric: They loosen the unregistered fabric for 12-24 hours before spreading the fabric over the table. After finishing the relaxation they spread the fabric over a table with the right pull.
Marker placement: A marker is a thin piece of paper that carries all the clothing material and puts it on the cut cloth. Place in the fabric layer before cutting the marker from the CAD. Marker checked very carefully before placing the fabric.
Cutting: In this step, the cutting is done by a cutting machine. Straight knife cutting machines, round knife cutting machines are mostly used for cutting.
Sorting: The cut part is sorted according to the size according to the shade after cutting.
Numbering and verification: In this step, the cut parts are numbered and carefully checked so that the single components never go wrong. QC examines the cut parts. If any defects are found, they replace the cut piece.
Bundling: The cut pieces are finally bundled.
Knitting input: Bundle cut piece ready for sewing.
