Fabric Inspector Procedure

The document provides procedures for inspecting fabric, including examining the fabric for defects and measuring qualities like width. Inspections should be conducted on delivery and include checking for flaws, holes, and other defects that are penalized based on a points system. Sample cuttings and measurements must be properly labeled and recorded.

Fabric Inspection Procedure:

Fabric inspection examining machine with variable speed control overhead lighting (daylight bulbs) and yardage
county the machine must be clean with no excess oil and sharp edges to damage the fabric.  How much fabric
inspection. It is the supplier’s responsibility to 100% inspects fabric inspection procedure  prior to delivery to the
garment making factory. The garment making factory should inspect 10% of roll from each delivery at random this
should include all colures and dye lots within a delivery. The results show a high fault rate. The additional 15% of
rolls should be inspected. If these fail, the delivery must be either rejected or 100% inspect. A high fault rate is
defined as average fault rate in excess of 28 points per 100 square yards.

Fabric Inspection Procedure :

At the beginning of each roll a 6’’ fault width cutting should be taken as a colour reference and checked for side
ceptre and side to side shading. This fault width cutting must be labeled with the fabric inspection procedure
reference number or name. Batch number, piece number, color name, color number and date.

The width of the fabric between the stenter pins must be measured and compared with the given minimum useable
width.

Each roll checked should be stopped at least 3 times during inspection (beginning, middle and end) at the these
stops, side to centre and side to side shading should be assessed. End to shading must be checked by comparing the
full width cutting to this point in the roll also the cut able width (between  stenter pins) should be measured.

The cut able width should be recorded on the inspection report as should any color shading detected (see comment
section).

The garment making factory should check the fabric length stated on the price ticket against the actual length or roll
for variance. Both values should be recorded on the inspection sheet.

During inspection the fabric inspection procedure should be checked for defects which are rated on the 4 (four) point
system. As follows:

                             Flaws up to 3” in length                 =          1 point

                             Flaws up to 6” in length                 =          2 point

                             Flaws up to 9” in length                 =          3 point

                             Flaws over 3” in length                  =          4 point

The maximum penalty for any running yard (36” x fabric width) must be not be more than b4 points.

Flaws in both warp and weft received equal points

All holes, regardless of size must be penalized 4 points

No more than 2 joins per fabric roll are allowed

The average point value per shipment should not exceed 28 points per 100 square yards
Individual rolls exceeding 40 points must be rejected. 

All defect points must be recorded in the inspection report, in addition the location of all defects must be marketed at
the right selvedge of the piece.

Fabric Inspection Method:

How To Calculate Point Per  Square Yard

Conclusion:

After the fabric inspection procedure is completed calculated the average points value per 100 square yards. Yards
by totaling the points and dividing by the number of piece inspected.This will be the final points total for the
inspection.

Lab Dips and Pantone Swatch:


Swatch is part of cloth and lab dips are swatch of fabric test dyed by hitting a colour standard. Shade is color
thickness of lap dip / swatch. Pantone swatch is a part of cloth. Pantone swatch is international standard. It has a
book where collection of pantone swatch is kept. Pantone swatch is a list of color chart...

Shades of Light for Colour Matching:


Shades of light varies depending on the light source under which sample is checked. For this, buyer/ customers give
specific shades of light under which sample will be checked. For this the following equipment is used-Name:
Verivide light box, Manufacturer: James H. Heal & Company Ltd, Origin: England.Light source: (1)D-65 (artificial
day light), TL-84, F (filament light), (2)UV ( ultraviolet blue light)

                      Colour Matching

Conclusion:
For shade matching or colour matching, it is very important to understand about the color tone and depth of
shade.  It's also important to know about the color combination by shade of light  by which color will produce for
lab dip

Textile Product Testing:


Without textile product testing there is no way to make a place in largest industrial market place where is contesting
among every single company. For making better garments than textile product testing is so important. Now a days
every textile industry textile product test there produced garment step by step from fiber selection to cloth, need to
be hundred percent sure as a better textile product. Any company depend on there product quality and the product
quality and assurance depend on textile product testing. So we can call it the textile testing is a part and parcel in
textile industry. Textile product testing is a very important way to certified a textile fiber, yarn or fabric as a use able
material in textile products or garments. Textile product will inform you what kind of fiber is this and approximately
what kind of garments you’ll be produce by this fiber, yearn, fabric. Let’s have a look basically how many textile
testing is used to test, textile fiber, yearn, fabric in the textile lab...
Textile Fiber Classification and Test Fiber:
Textile fibres and textile fiber testing play important role in garments factory .Textile fiber classification testing is
listed below- 

             Textile Fiber Classification


 Identifications of textile fibres
 Grading process of test fiber
 Color of textile fibres
 Fiber Length
 Fiber strength and elongation
 Fiber fineness
 Fiber maturity
 Trash
 Neps
 Short fiber index- SFI
 Short fiber content- SFC
 Immature textile fibres content
 Test fiber for dust
Yarn Testing Methods and Classification:
There are different types of yarn testing methods. Several yarn testing methods are stated here- 

Yarn Testing Technique


 Yearn count
 Twist per unit length
 Single yearn strength
 Lea strength and elongation
 Appearance
 Evenness and regularity
 spool of yarn

Test Fabrics and Classification:


There are different ways of test fabrics mechanism, some of them is described below- 
Fabrics Test
 Strength and elongation
 Length
 Width
 Thickness
 Weight
 Number of warp yearn per unit length
 Number of weft yearn per unit length
 The count of yearn used
 Design and construction of cloth
 Earn permeability
 Crimp
 Shrinkage
 Stiffness
 Handle
 Drape
 Crease resistance and recovery
 Abrasion
 Thermal properties
 Pilling
 Water absorbance and resistance
