Marker:
It is an illustration of accurate and precise planning of patterns for a particular style of garment and the sizes to be cut from a
single spread on a marker paper. To prepare an efficient marker, the width of the fabric to be spread in a lay as well as the
number of pattern pieces to be included in the marker plan for all the required sizes should be known prior to it. Marker width
that is less than fabric width leads to more fabric wastage while marker width that is wider than fabric results in incomplete cut
components. The individual marker has to be prepared for linings and interfacing materials.

Closed marker: In this marker, only one half of the pattern set is generally used for symmetric garments and the
fabric is folded lengthwise on the table after spreading it in face-to-face mode. Subsequent to the cutting
operation, one pattern could produce both sets of pattern pieces, that is, right and left garment panel when

process, after the garment panel is cut, the cut block for the pattern is separated in half, and the smaller size
pattern of that component is placed on the second half. This is then recut to the smaller size.
sectional marker
Single section marker: In this type of marker, different sizes of patterns are distributed all over the length of the
marker. It gives higher marker efficiency as a huge quantity of patterns could be accommodated in the marker.
marker length
Section marker: This kind of marker is utilised when the ratios of different garment sizes are known in advance.
Step markers are used when the order ratios of different sizes are not known in advance. It aids in processing
small orders of different sizes in an efficient manner by means of a stepped lay.
CATEGORIES
Grain: The patterns should be positioned in the marker in such a way that the grain line in the pattern piece
should be parallel to the selvedge of the fabric, which has a direct influence on the draping quality of the
garments. ACCESSORIES
APPAREL PRODUCTION
Mode:
AUTOMATION
Generally, markers are made in several modes. The direction of the nap on the fabric is used to define the mode of spreading.
CAD
Nap/One/Way marker: The Nap/One/Way marker (N/O/W) is produced with every pattern placed in the ‘down’
direction of the pattern in the identical direction. This kind of mode is required for asymmetric fabrics. CLOTHING
Nap/Either/Way marker: When there is no restriction of orientation of pattern placement this kind of marker

could be used. The patterns could be placed in ‘up’ or ‘down’ direction but as parallel to the fabric grain. It is the
most efficient marker yielding the highest fabric utilisation. CUTTING

Cutting quality
Production planning
1. Alignment of patterns with respect to fabric grain – All the patterns in the marker plan should be kept such that the grain
line in the pattern should be parallel to the fabric selvedge for better hanging and draping of garments (Figure-1).
2. Fabric symmetry and asymmetry – If the face and back side of the fabrics have a similar appearance, then they are called
‘two-way’ or ‘symmetrical’ fabrics and it does not warrant any special requirement while marker planning. The asymmetric
fabric where the face and back are dissimilar needs some attention during marker planning.
Examples of asymmetric fabrics are those having a nap or pile. More complicated fabrics are ‘one way’ or ‘asymmetrical’.
These kinds of fabrics have a surface pile or a print design that has a recognisable object which can only be used one way.
Open
3. Design requirements in final garment – Design aspects of final garments also have to be considered while marker
planning to get a better visual appearance of the finished garment. For instance, if a vertical stripe in a garment does not
exhibit a complete replica of a repeat on the right and left panels of garment it looks awkward.

between the patterns in the marker plan depends on the cutting method used.
A counting of number of patterns in the marker should be carried out to verify the complete set of patterns has been
incorporated in the marker plan. After cutting of fabric panels, sorting of pattern pieces as per the size, bundling of cut fabric
panels as per the colour and size and finally pattern count in each size should be done to confirm that all the patterns are
available for the assembling process. The marker planner should give coding to all patterns with its size during the preparation
of marker planning.
Production planning:
Each order is specified by a certain quantity with respect to size and colour. For example, an order for 12,000 trousers may
include 4800 blue, 4800 green and 2400 red, across sizes 30, 32, 34 and 36 in the ratio 2:4:4:2. The production planning and
control department have to ensure adequate supply of cut components to the sewing room at regular intervals.
Construction of Markers:
A marker is generally made by keeping the patterns one after the other in the length of the marker. The marker length states
the length of fabric that could be used in a lay. The marker length is defined by the following components, which are common
to all markers.
1. Selvedge lines: The two parallel lines should be drawn parallel to the edge of the cutting table. The gap or distance
between the selvedges represents the maximum fabric width that could be used during marker planning.
2. Beginning line: The beginning line is at the left side of the marker as seen by the marker planner and is perpendicular
to the selvedge lines and is considered a beginning position of the marker.
3. End line: The end line is marked at the end/right side of the marker (opposite the beginning line) which is located after
the extent of the last pattern and is drawn parallel to the beginning line joining the selvedge line.
4. Splice marks: Splice marks represent the area in the cutting table where the fabrics are overlapped during the run out
of fabric rolls or elimination of fabric defects during spreading. These marks are placed along the control selvedge.
5. Legend: The legend is used to give the key about the marker and normally consists of reference information about the
marker.
6. Placement rules: The marker planner has to consider the following general rules while marker planning:
a. The grain line in the pattern should be parallel to the fabric selvedge.
b. The patterns should be placed on the marker by considering the grain line in it.
d. The patterns can be placed from largest to smallest, to get higher marker efficiency, leading to the least amount of
markers. The marker planner works easily by moving around the full-size patterns until an acceptable marker plan is obtained.
Multiple copies of the marker are usually required, which can be done by reproducing the master marker with a range of
duplicating methods.

1. Carbon duplicating – This method is utilized when very few numbers of copies are needed. Double-sided carbon paper or
special NCR-type (no carbon required) paper can be used for duplicating the master marker. In this method, only six to eight
copies of master marker can be made without much deterioration in the line.
2. Spirit duplicating – In this system of duplicating, a special hectograph sheet is placed underneath the marker. The
hectograph paper transfers a blue line on the back side of the master marker as it is drawn. A master marker is then utilised to
produce multiple copies one at a time in a duplicating machine where the master marker along with the white paper wetted in
alcohol is moved through the rollers which transfer the line onto the copy.
3. Diazo photographic method – This technique can be used to make copies as required, one at a time. Here, both the light-
sensitive paper and a marker are passed through a UV light source, where the light-sensitive paper can be developed by
conveniences for pattern alteration, and by inputting suitable grading rules to create all the required sizes. The various
components involved are visual display unit with keyboard, tablet, data pen and mouse (Figure-3).
The marker planner indicates the precise make-up of the marker plan such as fabric width, the pattern pieces to be utilised,
and product sizes to be included in the marker and the constraints to be considered including any matching of checks. Then
