6.1 Objects of Quality Control:

1) Specification test2) Raw material control3) Process control4) Process development5) Product testing6) Research

6.2 Quality Control of Weaving Section

To produce high quality fabric it is necessary to inspect the fabric roll after receiving from different machine. This is done to assure the quality of the fabric before dyeing.

List of equipments used in inspection

a. Inspection m/cb. Electronic balancec. GSM cutter

6.3 Inspection Procedure

As the fabric is produced by the Air jet loom it is then collected by the quality inspector and the fabric is thoroughly inspected in front of a white light board. During this inspection the holes, oil marks, reed marks, loom bar, temple mark, double end, double pick, tight warp, loose warp, faulty denting, faulty drawing are checked. If the fabric is within the acceptance level (by the four point system) then it is sent to the garments section for further treatment.

6.4 Quality Standard

Sim Fabrics Ltd. Follows the four point grading system to inspect the body of the fabric. In the four point system the faults are found by inspection and are given points against the fault. Then the total no. is calculated. The following table shows the four point system.

Four Point Grading SystemSize of defects Penalty Points3 inches or less 1Over 3 inch but not over 6 inch 2Over 6 inch but not over 9 inch 3Over 9 inch 4

30

6.4.1 Calculations of points is done by-

= Actual Point Grade

If point grade is 40 or below then the fabric is ok. If the result is more than 40 points, then inform it to GM or respective merchandiser

The fabric is also checked for shading defect in side by side and length. Any non- conformities/ shading will be notified to asst. manager using inspected reports. Roll wise color uniformly card is maintained for identification of shade variations.

During the fabric inspection if the yardage of any roll is reported more or less by the fabric inspection machine then the one specified in the roll, the roll will be measured manually using measuring tapes. Only calibrated measuring tape should be used.

The result of fabric inspection shall be recorded in fabric inspection report.

6.7 Quality Assurance System:

Quality assurance procedure may be divided into two major parts

a) Online quality controlb) Offline quality control

6.7.1 Online Quality Control:

Online quality control comprises with the raw material control, process control & finish fabric inspection.

6.7.1.1 Raw material control: As the quality product depends upon the raw material quality, quality assurance department must ensure the best qualities of raw material are used in production.

The yarn should be with a known concentration and high degree of purity The fabric must be without faults, with proper absorbency, whiteness as per

requirement of the subsequent process.6.7.1.2 Process Control:

The method chosen for process must be provided with necessary parameters. During weaving samples should be checked at each stage of process. GSM, width, shrinkage (both length & width) should be maintaining as per buyer

requirement.

32

6.7.2 Offline quality control:

Offline quality control generally comprises different tests of final product so that it is possible to identify whether it pass against the norms given by buyer, the following test are generally done-

GSM test Shrinkage test Shade Check Wash fastness test Fastness to water Rubbing fastness test Perspiration test Durability test Dimensional stability

7.1 Basic Procedure of Production Planning & Control

A planned work brings success. Without planning nothing is complete within the required time. So planning has its own importance which is intolerable. Planning gives a schedule task and controls it success. But production planning and control is not an easy task. Its basic working procedure is as follows-

Taking order form marketing division Analyzing the orders Planning for dyeing the yarn Planning for weaving the fabric Planning for finishing the fabric

It is only a basic procedure. It may change according to the type of order. Sometimes the order is planned only for finishing the materials or only for weaving the goods. Then some steps are minimizing for planning.

a) Taking order from the marketing division: Sinha Denims Ltd. Marketing division supplied fabric orders to the planning and control division by a specific format.

b) Analyzing the orders: After getting the fabric order, this section analyzes the orders according to buyers order quantity, type of orders (i.e. type of fabric) delivery date etc. This section plans for required quantity of fabric to be weaved, delivery fabric.

c) Planning for weaving of the fabric: Production planning for weaving is called ‘” Beam Plan”. Weavers beam is prepared according to m/c capacity, reed count, fabric construction, width, GSM and priority of delivery etc and written in a pattern card.

9.1 Costing:

Costing is a very complex procedure, with set patterns and guidelines followed by the industry, and it is difficult to find out costs for every process as there are some inbuilt costs while costing.

9.1.1 Amount of raw material or GSM of the fabric:

Amount of raw material is reflected by the weight or GSM (grams/sq m) of the fabric. GSM is directly dependent on the EPI and PPI or construction of the fabric and is inversely proportional to the count of the yarn. Relation between GSM and cost is a little complex. For the same variety of the fabric, as the GSM increases the cost increases. But when the yarn becomes very fine and there is a variation in picks per inch in the fabric, then the cost of spinning and weaving plays a more important role than the GSM and even when the GSM is similar, the cost of voile fabric with finer yarns and more picks per inch is more.

Weight of the fabric is the weight of warp and weft which can be calculated by the formula below:

Weight of warp in grams/sq m of fabric = (EPI x 0.6) / Count of Warp = A

Weight of weft in grams/sq m of fabric = (PPI x 0.6) / Count of Weft = B

GSM = A+B

9.1.2 Sizing and Chemicals Cost:

The sizing cost depends upon the count of the yarns. The count becomes finer the size and chemical cost increases as a rich solution, better quality of size and chemicals is required for better strength.

One needs to add Rs 35/kg as additional cost which includes steam, power or wages. For two plied yarn no sizing is required.

39

9.1.3 Production cost or cost of weaving process:

It includes machine running cost, maintenance, labour cost, power & fuel, etc. The weaving cost is affected by the beam size -- if the beam is small in length, the cost will be more as beam gaiting and knotting will add to the cost.

Mill-made or power-loom made:

The quality of mill-made fabrics is better than power loom made fabrics in terms of yarn quality; therefore the cost of fabric is higher. At times it can be as high as 25%. eg, the cost of 40s Poplin 92 x 88 can vary between Rs 22/m and Rs 34/m. It depends on the type of loom whether power-loom, rapier, air-jet, dobby or jacquard and the weave and construction.

The weaving cost is expressed as paisa /pick/inch/sq m. The cost of weaving is different for different weaves. The cost of weaving for rapier loom for plain weave 40" width fabrics = 8 paisa/pick/inch/sq nm which means that for a 120 inch width fabric the cost will be 24 paisa/pick/m.

For twill weave, the cost = 12 paisa/pick/inch/sq m. For satin weave, the cost = 12 paisa/pick/inch/sq m.

In case of P/V suiting, the cost ranges from 14 paisa/pick to 20 paisa/pick. For 1,000 m beam with dobby, the weaving cost is 17 paisa/pick and for 1,000 m beam with jacquard is 20 paisa/pick.

For dobby, the cost = 12 paisa/pick/inch/sq m. For 2400 hook jacquard the cost = 40 paisa/pick/inch/sq m.

For double beam fabrics like seer sucker, the cost is = 20 paisa/pick/inch/sq m.

Costing of the product:

Costing system mainly describe how the cost of the final product is fixed by the company / top managements. As it is a garments manufacturing factory, so according to the buyer / customer requirements of final garments, merchandiser give the consumption of fabric with specifications. Then it is calculated how much dyestuffs & chemicals are required for processing. After that, the final cost is fixed including some profit. Then the unit price is offered to the buyer for their approval.

40

9.2 Costing of a product includes:

- Yarn cost- Warping cost - chemicals cost- Sizing cost- Cost of Weaving- Cost equipments & accessories etc- Transportation cost- Labor cost (direct & indirect)- Factory cost- Office & administrative cost- Sales and caring cost- Others cost- Profit, etc.

Remarks:

The costing of the product is most secret matter of the Industry. They are not interested to flash the cost related data. So we could not collect the Costing process of the products

11.1 Effluent Treatment Plant

Description of the ETP Process:

1. Equalization tank consist raw effluent. At the beginning raw effluent is led to the mixing tank/ reaction tank by pumping.

2. In Reaction tank Lime & Ferous Sulphate are added with effluent. Here blower is used to mix them properly

3. At the end of reaction tank the solution is led to the flocculation tank where polyelectrolyte is added for further reaction.

4. From the flocculation tank solution is drained to Tube settler-1. Here sludge is divided and placed in the sludge sump.

5. After the operation of tube settler-1 the solution is brought to pH control chamber where HCl is mixed to control the required pH.

6. After the completion of pH control the solution is led to the biological reaction tank 1 & 2. In this tank Bacteria Media is used to absorb the harmful insects that exist in effluent. An amount of Di-ammonium phosphate and Urea is used as food of Bacteria.

7. From the Biological Reaction tank water is again drained to Tube Setler-2. Like Tube Setler-1 sludge is divided here and placed in the sludge sump.

8. The cleaner effluent is passed through the filter feed tank to the sand filter and activated carbon filter for final filtration. After the final filtration the treated water is drained out in the air. Before draining out the Biological Oxygen Demand and Chemical Oxygen Demand are to check and keep it in required range.

9. The less contaminated liquid that is obtained from different operations except dyeing is stored min the less contaminated reservoir. It needs to be filtrated too before drain out.

10. In another operation, liquid sludge is collected from sludge sump and makes it inject into Sludge thickening tank.

11. In sludge thickening tank divination of raw sludge is occurred by centrifuge hydro extractor and the filtrated liquid is led to the equalization tank for further processing.

12. The Centrifuge hydro extractor is used to convert the sludge into cake which later brought to the air by the help of hand drum. After hydro extracting the rest substance is drained to the equalization tank for further processing.

13. The tested temperature of the equalization tank is approx 420c. Here blowers are used to maintain the proper circulation of the effluent.

12.1 Conclusion

Findings:

Industrial training is an essential part for textile education because it minimizes the gap between theoretical and practical knowledge. Undoubtedly, this industrial training taught us lot about textile technology, production processes, textile machineries, industrial management, and made us comfortable to industrial life. Besides it gave us the first opportunity to work in industry.

Limitations:

We had a very limited time. In spite of willingness to study in more details it was not possible to do so.

Some of the points in different chapters are not include as these were not available. It is not possible to compose the whole process in such a small frame as this report.
