IE TECHNIQUE
Planning and designing manufacturing processes and equipment is a main aspect of being an industrial
technologist. An Industrial Engineer is often responsible for implementing certain designs and processes.
Industrial Technology involves the management, operation, and maintenance of complex operation
systems. Techniques of industrial engineering are-
1. Method study To establish a standard method of performing a job or an operation after thorough analysis
of the jobs and to establish the layout of production facilities to have a uniform flow of material without back
tracking.
2. Time study This is a technique used to establish a standard time for a job or for an operation.
3. Motion Economy This is used to analyses the motions employed by the operators do the work. The
principles of motion economy and motion analysis are very useful in mass production or for short cycle
repetitive jobs.
4. Value Analysis It ensures that no unnecessary costs are built into the product and it tries to provide
the required functions at the minimum cost. Hence, helps to enhance the worth of the product.
IE TECHNIQUE
5. Production, Planning and Control: This includes the planning for the resources (like men, materials and
machine) proper scheduling and controlling production activities to ensure the right quantity, quality of
product at predetermined time and pre-established cost.
6. Inventory Control: To find the economic lot size and the reorder levels for the items so that the item
should be made available to the production at the right time and quantity to avoid stock out situation
and with minimum capital lock-up.
7. Material Handling Analysis: To scientifically analysis the movement of materials through various
departments to eliminate unnecessary movement to enhance the efficiency of material handling.
8. Ergonomics (Human Engineering): It is concerned with study of relationship between man and his
working conditions to minimize mental and physical stress. It is concerned with man-machine system.
TYPES OF GARMENTS
Garments – also referred to as clothes, apparel – are typically
items made from fabric and other materials that are worn on
the human body.
There are clothing ‘types’ based on setting:
•Business attire – worn for work purposes
•Casual wear – worn as standard clothing
•Formal wear – worn for events such as weddings
•Lingerie – under garments worn for support and / or
decoration
•Sports wear – worn for athletic activites like running
TYPES OF GARMENTS
And ‘types’ based on gender and age:
• BATCH PRODUCTION
• MASS PRODUCTION
• CONTINUOUS PRODUCTION
PRODUCTION SYSTEM
JOB SHOP PRODUCTION: Job shop production are characterized by
manufacturing of one or few quantity of products designed and produced as per
the specification of customers within prefixed time and cost. The distinguishing
feature of this is low volume and high variety of products. A job shop comprises
of general purpose machines arranged into different departments. Each job
demands unique technological requirements.
Parameter of Efficiency
1.Production output from the line (Pcs),
2.Standard allowed minutes (SAM/SMV) for garments,
3.Total number of operators in the line,
4.Total working hours.
EFFICIENCY CALCULATION
Example:
In Zara Fashion Ltd. a garment production line produced 300pcs Sweet shirt
garments in 45 Standard allowed minutes (SAM) by using 40 operators, where
working hours was 8.
Now, estimate the lines efficiency for the mentioned garment production.
Solution:
Here,
Production output from the line- 300pcs
Standard allowed minutes (SAM) for garments – 45
Total number of operators in the line – 40
Total working hours – 8hrs

SMV
Standard Minute Value is the time value arrived at for a task based on the average rate of output which qualified
workers will naturally achieve without over exertion provided that they know and adhere to the specified method and
provided that they are motivated to apply themselves to their work. It is the time required for a qualified worker
working at “Standard Performance” to perform a given task. The SMV includes additional allowances for rest and
relaxation, machine delay and anticipated contingencies.
SMV=BASIC TIME+ALLOWANCE
Cycle Time
Cycle time is the duration of time from the starting point of a task to the starting point of the next task. This time is
captured by the observation of a person’s work by stopwatch.
The formal formula for Cycle Time is-
Basic Time is the time which is obtained by multiplying rating factor to the Cycle Time (Observed Time).
The formal formula for Basic Time is-
Basic Time = (Cycle Time × Performance Rating)/100
This Basic Time is also known as Normal Time. Allowances are not included in the Basic Time.
Standard Time
Practically nobody can do work continuously for a long time without taking rest. During working there may occurred
machine and needle breakage as well as need to manage bundle during working. Also many other issues may
occurred during working. To measure standard time, some additional time is added due to different types of
allowance and non-avoidable issues.
Formally, standard Time is the time which is measured under the specific conditions as well as considering defined
label of performance.
SMV
Allowance: The following type of Allowances are applicable in garments industry.
1. Relaxation Allowance
✓ Personal Allowance
✓ Fatigue Allowance
2. Contingency Allowance

BOTTLENECK & LINE BALANCE
What is a Bottleneck?
In operations, a “bottleneck” is a work stage that cannot meet the production quota even at its maximum
throughput capacity, thereby delaying or stopping the flow of operations.
A bottleneck in production works the same as a physical bottle. The narrow neck reduces the rate at which water
flows out, and causes backup behind it.In an operation, bottlenecks can cause major interruptions to work
productivity, delaying the production process across the board, and failing to keep up with the rate of customer
demand
BOTTLENECK & LINE BALANCE
There are three different classifications of bottlenecks that businesses can run into on any given day. Those
include:
• Production line bottlenecks – When the output of one process is faster than another it leads to an increase in
material piling up, waiting to be used.
• Supply chain bottlenecks – A poorly designed material flow from suppliers is what results in a supply chain
bottleneck. This can be the result of lackluster inventory management, changing products frequently, financing
issues, or an incorrect forecast of demand.
• Bottlenecks caused by People – A lack of effective training leads to inefficient work, which causes ineffective
communication. Both are attributed to low employee morale due to constant work interruptions.
Aside from the different causes of bottlenecks identified above, there are also two different classifications that
bottlenecks fit into. Those are:
• Short-term bottlenecks
• Long-term bottlenecks
BOTTLENECK & LINE BALANCE
Dealing with Bottlenecks: Examples of Solutions
• Add additional capacity – If a bottleneck is being caused at a specific step in the production process, consider adding
additional capacity. For example, bottlenecks can occur during painting tasks because it may take a longer time than other
steps. Adding a second painting station will effectively double capacity and should eliminate the bottleneck problem.
• Eliminate wasteful steps – Some products may have extra features that customers don't want or need. If these types of
steps are causing a bottleneck, it is a good idea to eliminate them all together to keep work moving along smoothly.
Eliminating waste is an important part of fixing bottlenecks and improving efficiency.
• Add staff – One of the most common causes of a bottleneck is insufficient staffing to complete a task. Hiring additional
employees to work in a specific area is an excellent solution.
• Reduce production – While reducing the rate of production is not typically a good long-term solution, it is better to reduce
production rates than to have huge amounts of inventory building up along the production line.
• Adjust the flow – It is often possible to adjust the workflow to keep things moving. When a bottleneck forms, see if the step
where it is occurring can be skipped and then completed later. This is only a good solution for situations where a temporary
bottleneck forms for some reason, such as a broken machine or absent employees.
BOTTLENECK & LINE BALANCE
Line Balancing
A line is defined as a group of operators under the control of one production supervisor. Balancing is the technique
of maintaining the same level of inventory at each and every operation at any point of time to meet the production
target and to produce garments of acceptable quality. Generally we know line balancing in apparel production means
allocation of sewing machine according to design. It is done for proper allocation of operation and helper in a sewing
line in such a way that smooth production can be possible with minimizing the idle time.

CAPACITY & PRODUCTION STUDY
CAPACITY & PRODUCTION STUDY
Capacity Study is the ability to perform real physical work, and work ability is a result of interaction of worker
to his or her work that is how good a worker is at present, in near future, and how able is he or she to do his
or her work with respect to work demands and health and mental resources
Production study is a continuous and lengthy study (may be of days), taken with purpose of checking the
present or proposed standard time. It may be used to obtain the information affecting the rate of output. So
production study is not a standard time setting technique but a checking technique.
Why Need:
• To check the accuracy of time study, conducted earlier.
• To check the standard time, whenever it encounters any challenge.
• To insure the time standards do cover all the activities.
• To check the process when the performance of worker is found progressively deteriorating. To estimate
the various delays or waiting times etc.
• To make the performance records of various department.
• To estimate relaxation and interference allowances.

SKILL MATRIX
A skills matrix pinpoints the skills that a team/organization has or needs in
order to do their job effectively. By creating a skills matrix, organizations can
easily identify where employees are succeeding and where they need to
improve. using an employee skills matrix chart will allow us to see at a glance
who has the skills to work on various tasks
T = Ta/D
Where
T = Takt time or Takt, e.g. [work time between two consecutive
units]
Ta = Net time available to work during the period, e.g. [work time
per period]
D = Demand (customer demand) during the period, e.g. [units
required per period]
TAKT TIME
Example:
If there are a total of 8 hours (or 480 minutes) in a shift (gross time) less 30 minutes lunch, 30 minutes for
breaks (2 × 15 mins), 10 minutes for a team briefing and 10 minutes for basic maintenance checks, then the
net Available Time to Work = 480 - 30 - 30 - 10 - 10 = 400 minutes.
If customer demand were 400 units a day and one shift was being run, then the line would be required to
output at a minimum rate of one part per minute in order to be able to keep up with customer demand.
In the beginning, people tend to confuse takt time with lead time and
cycle time, which are Lean metrics of no lesser importance
• Lead time is the time frame between an order being received and
the client getting their value.
• Cycle time is the time your team spends actively working on a
customer order.
• Takt time is the maximum amount of time you need to comply
with to meet customer demand.
THREAD CONSUMPTION
For apparel merchandising, in today’s competitive marketplace, there is a need for tight cost control. A realistic
estimation of potential thread requirements for particular garment styles or contracts will not only end up saving
money, and warehouse maintenance. As, if you buy sewing threads more than you require that will be a matter of
extra warehouse maintenance. To understand sewing thread consumption we also need to understand the Seam
and Stitch analysis.
Step 1: To calculate thread ratio, you need a sewing machine, fabric and sewing thread that will be used
for bulk production. For fabric and thread, you can take similar thickness and same thread count in case
actual is not available.
Step 2: Sew a seam of 12 cms long and take 10 cms seam out of it by trimming 1 cm from both edges.
Step 3: Unravel both needle thread and bobbin thread from the seam. Remove crimp from the unraveled
thread and measure its length in cm. Generally, it will be higher than the seam length. Now find the
multiplying factor by dividing thread length with seam length. Assume unravelled needle thread length is
12.5 cm then needle thread multiplying factor is 12.5/10 or 1.25.
Using this method you can find out any types of machines’ thread consumption factors.
Step 4: Once you have consumption factors then it is easy to calculate total thread consumption. Measure
the seam length of all operations of the garment and get thread requirement by multiplying thread
consumption factor. Add thread wastage 15% for the thread that trims out from each end of the seam.

CPM
CPM: cost per minute is a financial term used to describe the total cost a project or goal takes per minute of time.
In general cost per minute is used to define cost per unit time for jobs that are usually priced on an hourly basis,
but often take less than an hour of time.
For example, if a lawyer is hired for a job and costs $200 per hour, but only averages 15 minutes of work on the
case per day, it helps to understand the cost per minute to better understand the total cost.
• Calculate the actual salary of all operators and other direct labors working on the line in a day
• Total pieces made by the line
• Garment SMV of the running order
Objective
• The objective of the Time and motion study is to determine a normal or average
time for a job by using observers to record exactly how much time is being devoted
to each task
TIME & MOTION STUDY
Principles of motion economy
• Analysis of an operation when carried out in terms of individual motion of a worker is
known as Motion analysis.
• The purpose of motion analysis is to design an improved method which would eliminate
unnecessary motion and employs human effort more productively.
• It consists of a set of rules designed by Gilbreth and later rearranged and amplified by
others(Branes Lowry et al) to develop better methods.
Step 1: First select the job to be studied. Breakdown the work content of the job into smallest possible
elements. Then, inform the worker and define the best method.
Step 2: Observe the time for appropriate number of cycles (such as 25 to 50).
Step 3: Determine the average cycle time (CT)
Step 4: Determine the normal time (NT)
Step 5: Determine the standard time using Givenformula.
TIME & MOTION STUDY
Time Study Equipment
The following equipment is needed for time study work.
• Timing device
• Time study observation sheet
• Time study observation board
• Other equipment
Timing Device. The stop watch is the most widely used timing device used for time study,
although electronic timer is also sometimes used. The two perform the same function with the
difference that electronic timer can measure time to the second or third decimal of a second
and can keep a large volume of time data in memory.
Time Study Observation Sheet. It is a printed form with spaces provided for noting down the
necessary information about the operation being studied, like name of operation, drawing
number, and name of the worker, name of time study person, and the date and place of study.
Spaces are provided in the form for writing detailed description of the process (element-wise),
recorded time or stop-watch readings for each element of the process, performance rating(s) of
operator, and computation.
TIME & MOTION STUDY
Time Study Equipment
Time Study Board. It is a light -weight board used for holding the observation sheet and
stopwatch in position. It is of size slightly larger than that of observation sheet used. Generally,
the watch is mounted at the center of the top edge
Other Equipment. This includes pencil, eraser, device like tachometer for checking the speed,
etc.

seiso, seiketsu, and shitsuke. Translireted into Roman Script,
they all start with the letter "S". The list describes how to
organize a work space for efficiency and effectiveness by
identifying and storing the items used, maintaining the area

DIFFERENT WASTAGE
• The waste is defined as anything that
doesn’t add value to your customer.
• Any activity that does not change the
product or assembly is waste.
Toyota (Taiichi Ohno) define waste as;
• Necessary
• Just because a process step is not value-added does not mean it is a bad
thing. Processes all include steps that do not add value, but are necessary
to make the product or service happen.
• Unnecessary
• In these steps resources are expended, delays occur, and no value is added
to the product or service. Customers are absolutely not willing to pay for
these activities.
