Like different business, garment manufacturing facility is set for earnings generation. Profit can be expanded by means of saving from every price elements of garment making. The cloth is the most essential represent of a garment and it represents around 60-70% of whole product manufacturing cost. Fabric price of a product relies upon how a whole lot of cloth is bump off to make the garment such as reduce wastes and cease bits. So material consumption should be calculated accurately.
Most of the Indian clothing factories' cloth consumption is made with the aid of sample masters. The rest of the personnel do now not trouble how it is done. If you have a product technical sheet then you can calculate the precise cloth consumption of a garment. Average cloth consumption additionally relies upon on nature of the fabric, like tubular or open width fabric. Whether the cloth is stable colored, test or stripe, or any unique plan repeat required. In the following, one instance has been proven with a formulation for higher clarification about the calculation.
Basic formula:
To estimate material consumption for a knitted pinnacle use the following formula.
Consumption in grams= {(L*C) + (B*SL)}*2*GSM/10000 grams
(when size devices are in centimeter)
Where,
C= Chest +allowance
L= size of the physique measure + allowance
SL= Sleeve size +Allowance
B=Biceps +allowance
GSM = material weight in grams per rectangular meter
Example: Product - knitted top. Garments elements are front, back, and sleeves.
Measurements without allowances Measurement with allowances
Chest (C) = 23.25” +1.75” = 25”
Body Length (L) = 30.5” +2.50” = 33”
Sleeve Length (SL) = 26” +1.50” = 27.5”
Bicep (B) = 9.2” +0.80” = 10”
Fabric GSM =200
As per above method consumption of material for this fashion is
= {(L*C) + (B*SL)}*2*GSM/10000 grams
= [{(33*25) + (10*2*27.5)}*2*(2.54*2.54)*200]/10000 grams (Note: 2.54 is inch to cm conversion factor)
= [{825+550}*400*6.45]/10000 grams
= 354.83 grams
Note: The above components will supply you the weight of material solely that is ate up via a garment. In the above formula, I have now not blanketed material loss due to material width, marker loss, and cloth wastage (such as cease loss, cease bits, defects). When you buy cloth you have to think about all of these parameters in cloth consumption calculation.
