Design of Clothing Manufacturing Processes: A Systematic Approach to Planning, Scheduling and Control (Woodhead Publishing Series in Textiles)by Jelka Gersak
Synopses & ReviewsPublisher Comments: The era of mass manufacture of clothing and other textile products is being replaced by more flexible manufacturing systems to fit individual customer preferences. This means faster and more flexible design, manufacture and delivery of more customized products. It also means a more integrated and automated supply chain. The editor and contributors review developments in international garment classification and sizing systems, techniques for developing an overall garment collection, garment design and pattern preparation, garment production and testing. The eight chapters of the book provide a detailed coverage of the design of clothing manufacturing processes using a systematic approach to planning, scheduling and control. The book starts with an overview of standardized clothing classification systems and terminologies for individual clothing types. Chapters 2 and 3 explore the development of standardized sizing systems and review the key issues in the development of a garment collection. Chapters 4 to 7 discuss particular aspects of clothing production, ranging from planning and organization to monitoring and control. Finally, chapter 8 provides an overview of common quality requirements for clothing textile materials.
