Research paper thumbnail of Optimization of Total Cost of Production for a Mixed Make-To-Order (MTO) and Make-To-Stock (MTS) Production System with Lot Sizing for the RMG Industry in Bangladesh

Global journal of research in engineering, Feb 23, 2023

This model is an example of mixed integer linear programming. The primary goal of this approach, which combines the make-to-order (MTO) and make-to-stock (MTS) production methods are to simultaneously satisfy existing customer orders and new customer orders in order to reduce the total cost. Here, make-to-order (MTO) and make-to-stock (MTS) production systems are becoming more and more common since they allow businesses to increase revenues while managing expenses by maintaining a positive cash flow. For mixed contexts where demand is cyclical but predictable, and the model stores the predicted data and fresh forthcoming orders.

Research paper thumbnail of Comparison between Tencel-Flax Blended Slub Yarn and Cotton-Flax Blended Slub Yarn

Tencel is regenerated cellulosic fiber & flax is natural bast fiber. Tencel shows more versatility than flax. Tencel has a softer feel with a variety of end uses. Tencel is wrinkle-prone and stiff. Tencel shows extreme strength even in wet conditions and at the same time, it is more durable than linen. The most important fact is that the heat dissipation property of flax is 5 times higher than wool & 19 times higher than silk. Linen clothing can lower the body temperature by 3 to 4 degree celsius in hot weather than clothing made of wool and silk. A yarn made of both Tencel & linen (50:50) will contain the properties of both fibers. At the same time, we can make this yarn more aesthetic by incorporating a slub. It was observed that the slub yarn made by blending Tencel and flax fiber shows better properties than the slub yarn of the same count made from the blending of cotton and flax.

This paper uses Porter's diamond model of national competitiveness to analyze the reasons that helped the sector achieve this position. The results indicate that while low cost human resources have significantly aided the competitiveness of the sector under factor conditions, the other three diamond-shaped elements (national demand conditions, related and supporting industries, firm structure, and management) were either inactive or not very so. The study advances the idea that countries can become globally competitive in a sector even if the national diamond is not sufficiently impregnable.

So defects minimization is the first condition of reducing cost and increasing productivity. The work aims to minimize the defect percentage by using DMAIC approach of Six Sigma methodology. The study is carried out in Ananta Apparels Ltd. by using DMAIC methodology of six sigma to minimize the defect rate in sewing section. Five phases of the DMAIC methodology named Define, Measure, Analyze, Improveand Control which indicates some critical defects such as stain, skip stitch, broken stitch, and slip out in the sewing section of Ananta Apparels Ltd. We applied various types of six sigma tools in different phases. The outcome of this study is very significant to implement in the sewing section of the apparel industry.

Above 80% of its total export earning is contributed by the RMG sector which has a huge impact on the economy of the country. At present this RMG sector is facing many threats and challenges to hold its flourishing position because of the entrance of new competitors both in the national and international market. To overcome these challenges continuous improvement is required to a great extent. This paper experiments execution of 5S approach to a production scenario in a garments industry. 5S method should be improved to ensure ergonomics in the workplace, to reduce defects and increase cleaning and productivity growth. It is one of the fundamental tools to intensify continuous improvement process in organizations and represents a transformation in 5 steps of a job, which is characterized by maximum efficiency at the micro level and minimum loss.

Different types of sewing and stitching defects are occured in this phase due to various problems. As today's world each customer is expecting a very high quality garments with product variety, it has become a very challenging task for garments quality management. Here all the data were collected from Gardenia Wears Limited situated at Barmi-Sreepur, Gazipur, Dhaka and data were analyzed for reducing Defects per Hundred Unit (DHU%) and also top 10 stitch defects were identified and analyzed later. Finally the work shows reduction of DHU% from 5.23% to 3.48% and also reduce the top ten stitch defects with comparison to before trial and after trial data of ten days and it is proved that an industry can achieve higher production capability & profitability with improved quality product and also saving cost due to reducing DHU%.

An important and emerging part of the textile industry is medical, hygiene and health care sector. Textiles are a compelling solution for implantable medical devices, primarily due to the versatility they offer in product design. Textiles are in 2D and 3D implantable forms, with configurations limited only by the imagination. The number of applications is enormous and diverse, ranging from a single thread suture to the complex composite structures for bone replacement and from the simple cleaning wipe to advanced barrier fabrics used in Operation Theater. The main object of this work is to study the types of implantable textiles used in the medical sector such as surgical suture, artificial skin, artificial ligament, and artificial cartilage. In this study, we have included different types of raw materials used and the manufacturing process of these implantable medical textiles.

The production rate of the existing layout was not close to the target. The target was 175 pieces per hour but actual production was 138 pieces per hour. So we analyzed the layout and found out the bottleneck area. Then we rearranged the workload by work sharing and reduced manpower. By doing so, actual production was 160 pieces per hour, which is near to the target, and line efficiency increased to 77%, where the existing sewing line layout was 55%. After reducing the bottleneck in sewing line capacity, we achieved 160 pieces per hour against the 138 pieces in the existing layout.
