Upon completion of the course the student shall be


able to.
• Do Knows about selection of Production system
Do you know?

In order to survive in a highly competitive


environment or during an economical crisis every
company needs to maximize the efficiency of its
activity. For garment factories and workshops this
means a higher utilization rate of the workforce
and a strict control of raw material costs.
Knows about Production
system
 Garment production system is a
combination of production
processes, materials handling,
personnel and equipment that
direct workflow and produce
finished garments.
 It is a system that depicts how the
two- dimensional fabric is
transformed into a three-
dimensional garment in a
Knows about Production
system
 The names of the production
systems are based on the various
factors like utilization of a number
of machines to assemble a
garment, layout of machines, total
number of operators involved to
produce a garment and number of
pieces moving in a production line
during the production of a garment.
Know selection of Production
system

In the apparel industry, four types of production systems are


commonly used:
 Bundle system
 Progressive bundle system (PBS)
 Unit production system (UPS)
 Modular system.
Know selection of Production
system
 Most of the industries use Unit
production system.
 The unit production system (UPS) for
apparel industries is a flexible material
handling
system that requires a computerized
overhead transportation system to
move the garment components
automatically from one workstation to
the next according to a pre-
Unit Production system

 It replaces the traditional


garment production system of
handing, bundling, tying and
untying, and manually moving
garment parts. It provides
uninterrupted workflow to the
workers and helps to improve
work efficiency and product
quality. In the fast-moving
fashion and apparel industry,
Unit Production system
 No need to replace the sewing machine.
 Bundle handling completely eliminated.
 UPS increase production efficiency 15-30%.
 Decreased work in process (WIP), improved space utilization, and
increased productivity are but a few of the systems benefits.
 Support multi-order, multi-style and small batches production.
 Reduce production cycle.
 Improve the machine utilization, reduce the handling and increase
the moving time of needles.
 Generate real-time performance report.
Unit Production system

 Create a clean and tidy work environment.


 Easy and efficient staff assignment with minimum human resources.
 Improved lead timeless work in process.
 Improved space utilization.
 Better handling of garment without touching the floor.
 No chance of serial and sequence mistakes.
 Output is automatically recorded, eliminates the operator to
register the work.
Unit Production system

 Labor costs reduced by elimination of bundle handling and


employee attendance improved.
 Less rejection and automatic counting of the finished
product.
 Required minimum ironing due to the hanging of garment
pieces.
