Impact of Different Seam Types on Seam Strength
Seam strength is the strength of the seam measured from a sewn garment. A seam can be failed due to different reasons like breaking of sewing thread, tearing of fabric, excessive seam slippage or can be a combination of those. The objective of this study is to find out the effect of different seam on seam strength. For this experiment, a denim fabric having the construction of (68*9)/(46*7) has been collected. Then the samples are prepared according to ASTM D1683 (EQ28C) method having dimension of 10cm width & 20cm long. After that seam strength of all the samples have been done using tensile strength tester.
Impact of Sleeve Types on Marker Efficiency and Fabric Consumption
In present day, the apparel industries should be very versatile and should capable of processing any kinds of design as per buyer demand. Better quality in every sense of the word warrants a better price point, but the idea and real trend are to mitigate risk and maximize net profits. During order taking, we need to make fabric consumption using mathematical estimates before actual marker making consumption. Two types of mathematical methods of fabric consumption are widely used by many factories. But due to lack of knowledge, what type of formula is suitable for which type of garments, it is not clear to all.
