| dc.description.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%, re-work 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. | en_US |
