Abstract

The project is on industrial training in garments. Traditionally operated garments industries are facing problems like how productivity, longer production lead time, high re-work and rejection, poor line balancing, low flexibility of style changeover etc. These problems were address in this study by the implementation of lean tools like cellular manufacturing, single piece flow, work standardization, just in time production etc. After implementation of lean tools results observed were highly encouraging. Some of the production time decreased by 8%, number of the operations required to produced equal amount of garments decreased by 14%, rework label reduced by80%, work in process inventory stays at maximum of 100 pieces from around 500 to 1500 piece. Apart from these tangible benefits operator multi skilling as well as flexibility of style changeover has been improved. This study is connected in the stitching section of shirt manufacturing company. This study includes time study, the conversation of traditional batch production into single piece flow and long assembly line into small work cells
