TY - JOUR TI - Study of operations in sewing process of girls’ pants AU - SEVIM YILMAZ T2 - Industria Textila AB - The sewing labour that has a portion of up to 70% of the labour cost in the clothing production, creates a very effective cost component. That is why it is necessary to analyse the workflow in the sewing room better and use the optimum performance and productivity of the workers. In this research rationalizations of girls’ pants production are studied and the developed method is implemented in a middle-sized company in Aegean Region of Turkey. As a result, the productivity of balancing was increased by 6.53 % (from 93.07% to 99.6%). Due to done method development studies, the Total Sewing Time/Piece was been reduced to 20.92 minutes from 21.22 minutes. Before method development studies the theoretical number of workers need was 37 and the actual employed number of workers was 38 at the end of method development studies (MDS) and line balancing this number was been decreased to 35 workers. This girls’ pants order was planned for 12 days of production, thus, in total 576 $ saving was provided by the utilization of the rationalized method. The benefits attained through the method development in the company base will globally contribute to the garment industry in the world in terms of the competitive power and the rise in the employment of the labour.
