1.SORTING/BUNDLING
SORTING OR BUNDLING is the process of matehing patterns according to size and design.The surter makes bunldes of patterns.This step requires much precision create several problems.On each bundle there are specifications of the style, Size and the marker is attached with it.
2.SEWING/ASSEMBLING
The sorted bundles of fabrics are now ready to be stitched.Large garment manufactures have their own sewing units but some give the fabrics under contract to other contractors.Stitching quality control during the processing.Else,if contractors are hired,keeping an eye on quality is difficult unless the contractor is the one who precisely controls the process.
There are seeing stations for sewing different parts of the cut pieces. In his workplace,there are many operator's who perform a single operation.One operator may make only straight seams,while another may make sleeve insets.yet another two operator's can see the waist seam ,and make buttonholes.various industrial sewing machine,too can make different types of stitches.These machines have different configuration of the frame.some machine work sequentially and feed their finished step directly into the machine,while the gang machines have multiple machines performing the same operation supervised by a single operator.All these factors determine what parts of a garment can be seen at that station.Finally,the sewn parts of the garment,such as sleeves or pant legs,are assembled to give the final form to the clothing.
A.Directions:Assemble the cut parts of the sleeping garments.
*IRON AND IRONING OR OTHER PRESSING SURFACE you need an ironing board or other heat-proof pressing surface.
*SEAM ROLL is a handy pressing tool, used all the time. Besides the sleeve board, it's a mainstay of the pressing tools.
*SEAM STICK helps you press in small places.
*TAILOR'S CLAPPER is used in tailoring to help press wool seams flat. First you press the seam with a good steam iron.Then, before the seam is cooled,you press the clapper against the seam to hold it in place while it cools.
PRESSING TECHNIQUES
PRESSING and IRONING are two different uses of elecric iron.
PRESSING is lifting and placing the iron on the garment.
IRONING is pushing and using pressure to iron out the wrinkles of the garment.
SEAM IMPRINTS to avoid seam imprints on the right side of the fabric,place a strip of the brown paper bag between the seam allowance and the garment before pressing
.
RUB OUT SCORH MARKS if you scorch wool fabric by using an iron that is too hot,rub a nickel on the scorch mark.The scorch Mark will disappear.
Be careful to use a clean nickel on light colored fabrics.
PRES AS YOU GO when sewing, never see over an onpressed seam.Always press the seams as you go.This will make sewing easier and will improve the quality of hanging of your finished garment.
IRONING VS. PRESSING ironing is done by using a back and forth motion.Pressing is done by using an up and down motion.Ironing can stretch the fabric cut of shape and can cause wrinkling and puckering on finished garment.
COOL IT to keep freshly pressed fabrics and garments from getting wrinkled allow them to rest and cool minutes before moving them.if you are in a hurry or just impatient,use a fan directed at the ironing board to cool and set'press.
SETTING AND REMOVING CREASES a solution of one part water and one part distilled white vinegar will remove an old crease with this mixture and press hand as the fabric allows.Press until the press cloth is dry.The vinegar smell will dissipate as the fabric dries.
CLEANING YOUR IRON irons get dirty and accumulate color form the fabric dye.Clean your iron periodically especially when sewing and pressing light colored fabric.The beut way to clean the suleplate of your iron is with a commercial hot iron cleaner,sold at fabric and sewing supply stores.
This product is very easy to use.
SEAM ROLL a seam roll can be used to press areas that are hard to lay on a flat surface,like a sleeve.They also provide a covered surface for pressing seams without leaving imprints form the seam allowance.
CLAPPER use a clapper to flatten seams after pressing. A clapper can reduce bulk and make fabric lay flat.Steam press the seam area.Press the clapper over the area to seal in the heat and moisture.After about a minute,the fabric or seam will lay perfectly flat.
"Procedure in pressing sleeping Garments"
1.Pressing/Finishing;
The next operations are finishing and/or decorating.
Molding may be done to Change the finished surface of the garment by applying PRESSURE,HEAT, MOISTURE,or other combinations.
Pressing, pleating and creasing are the basic molding processes.Creasing is mostly done before decorating the garment with something like a pocket,
Appliques, embroidered emblems,etc.
Vertical and form presses are automated machines.they perform simple pressing operations,such as touching up wrinkle in knit shirts.around embroidery and snaps,and at difficult to reach places on garments.
