Quality & Quality control:
Introduction :Quality means customer needs is to be satisfied.Failure to maintain an adequate quality standard cantherefore be unsuccessful. But maintaining anadequate standard of quality also costs effort. Fromthe first investigation to find out what the potentialcustomer for a new product really wants, through
the processes of design, specification, controlledmanufacture and sale.There are a number of factors on which qualityfitness of garment industry is based such as -performance, reliability, durability, visual andperceived quality of the garment. Quality needs to bedefined in terms of a particular framework of cost.Quality Control:Quality is of prime importance in any aspect of
business. Customers demand and expect value formoney. As producers of apparel there must be aconstant endeavor to produce work of good quality."The systems required for programming andcoordinating the efforts of the various groups in anorganization to maintain the requisite quality". As

such Quality Control is seen as the agent of QualityAssurance or Total Quality Control.In the garment industry quality control is practicedright from the initial stage of sourcing raw materialsto the stage of final finished garment. For textile andapparel industry product quality is calculated interms of quality and standard of fibres, yarns, fabricconstruction, colour fastness, surface designs andthe final finished garment products. However quality
expectations for export are related to the type ofcustomer segments and the retail outlets.Quality control and standards are one of the mostimportant aspects of the content of any job andtherefore a major factor in training.
Total Quality Control:"To ensure that the requisite quality of product is
achieved". This ensures customer satisfaction, but itleaves quality control as a necessary but expensiveevil.

To ensure, at minimum practicable cost, that therequisite quality of product is being achieved atevery stage of manufacture from raw materials to
boxed stock
Objectives: To maximize the production of goods within the
specified tolerances correctly the first time. To achieve a satisfactory design of the fabric or
garment in relation to the level of choice indesign, styles, colours, suitability of componentsand fitness of product for the market.
Textile quality control experts:Quality Control :
AQM performs quality control and inspection services for
different customers from all over the world. Using
international standards such as ISO 2859, our Quality
Controllers (QC) method consists to check different
control points:
Conformity: The QC checks the conformity of the product
(design, colors, raw material) with the Pre-Production
Sample (PPS) and other technical files.
7/28/2019 Assignment on Quality and Quality Control Final

Quality: Our QC checks for defects (fabric defects, colors
defects, accessories and label defects, manufacturing
defects) and classifies them accordingly.
Measurement: Following the measurement chart, our QC
checks the measures for each size of the product.
Packaging: Our QC checks the quantity of cartons, size of
cartons, their weight, shipping marks, etc.
Concept of Quality:Simply, quality refers to one or more desirable characteristics tproduct should possess.
Quality is inversely proportional to (unwanted) variability.
7/28/2019 Assignment on Quality and Quality Control Final

Quality Characteristics:Every product possesses a number of properties that jointly des
what the user or consumer thinks of as quality. These propertie
known as quality characteristics.
For example, fiber length is known to be one of the important q
characteristics of a fiber.
Quality Cost :Preventing, detecting and dealing with defects cause costs that
called quality costs or costs of quality.
Quality costs can be broken down into four broad groups.
(1). Prevention Costs:product/process design.Process control.Burn-in.

On Line and off line Quality Control System:Quality Control System:
1.On- line quality control system2.Of line quality control system
On Line Quality control System:
This type of quality control is carried out without
stopping the production process. During the running ofproduction process a set up is automatically performs and
detect the fault and also takes corrective action.
Online quality control comprises with the raw material
quality control and the process control.
Raw Material Control :
As the quality product depends on the raw material
quality so we must be provided with the best quality raw
material with an economical consideration. The fabric
must be without fault, with proper absorbency, whiteness
as per requirement of the subsequent process. The Grey
inspection report gives the condition of the raw fabric.
Process Control :
7/28/2019 Assignment on Quality and Quality Control Final

The method chosen for the process must be provided with
the necessary accurate parameters. Here the specific
gravity, water level, residual hydrogen per oxide etc. at
each stage is checked.
Laboratory :
Lab is the head of the textile industries. Higher precision
lab can aid easily to achieve the goal of the organization.
Before bulk production a sample for the approval from
industry is sent to the buyer. As per the requirement of the
buyer the shade is prepared in a lab considering the
economical aspects.
Lab Line:
1. Standard sample: The buyer to the industry gives the
standard sample. The sample is measured by the CCM to
get the recipe.
2. Lab trial: Getting the recipe the lab officer produce lab
trial and match with standard according to buyer
requirement. Lab trial is made by the AHIBA dyeing
machine.There are some programs for dyeing. The
programs are given below.
Off line Quality Control System:
Performed in the laboratory and other production area by
stopping the production process consisting of fabric
inspection and laboratory and other test. Correction steps

important as the
7.Quality of the garment itselfTo ensure quality:
To insure quality some factors are considered:
Recognize who the customer is
Build processes that anticipate and prevent defects Make a plan to achieve the desired quality level Set up ways to measure progress Work as a team to achieve goal
In this context, customer is the entity receiving a service
or product from our work. For example, we can take ashort production line.
Receiving Cutting Sewing Inspecting
Finishing
Quality problem in cutting may lead to problems in
sewing,inspecting and finishing. Its like garbage ingarbage out. In other words, one needs to have good
quality materials to produce good quality goods. So this
has to be applied to every process in the system to have a
total quality control.
7/28/2019 Assignment on Quality and Quality Control Final
22/30
A good plan requires:
(a) A clearly defined objective
(b) Goals or expected results(c) The activities needed to achieve the desired results
(d) Defined roles and responsibilities for the activities
(e) Dates for beginning and completion of each activity
(f) An analysis of potential problems
Measurements are a vital part of any quality improvement
program. Anything that is not measured does not improve.
We need to establish these standard measures and
measure the progress periodically.
Team work is also an essential element for the success of
the program. Remember ONE of us is NOT better than
an All of US. The whole effort needs to have a directionthat a team leader will provide.
Way of control quality:
1.Have the proper approach toward operators.2.Train the operator to sew with good quality from the
beginning.3.Know quality specifications and tolerance. Be sureyou understand what constitutes good and poor
quality. Be consistent in your decisions toward
quality.
7/28/2019 Assignment on Quality and Quality Control Final
23/30
4.Comment on both good and bad quality. We all havea tendency to be silent during good times and vocal
during the bad.
5.Be sure to check each operators work daily.6.Use a check list. Do not rely on memory of
specifications.
7.Do not rely on inspectors to tell you the quality levelof your operators, instead find out yourself.
8.Do not have a compromising attitude towardsproblem related to quality.
Basic quality inspection procedure in cutting area:
1.Marker is checked for all parts and for any variationagainst pattern.
2.Spreading has to be inspected3.During cutting:4.The marker line had to be followed5.All notches should be located correctly with even
depth say 1/8 in. ( 1/16). When cutting, care should
be taken not to shift the stack of parts to a side or cut
with the blade at an angle.
6.In bundling and shade marking, care should be takento ensure that the numbering is correct. For the final
audit process, the quality inspector will determinehow many bundles to check from every size
depending on the sample size.
7/28/2019 Assignment on Quality and Quality Control Final
24/30
Basic quality control procedure in sewing line:
(a) 100% inline parts checking
The operations which are difficult to re-process afterassembling is checked 100% to avoid damages and waste
of time.
(b) Inline inspection
During the production of garments the operators finished
work is audited in an inline inspection. A quality
inspector moves from one operator to another at random
inspecting a pre-determined number of parts from a
finished bundle. This helps to control quality at needle
point.
(c) 100% end-line inspectionAt the end of a line or section there should be a checker to
inspect all the parts before they leave the section. The
inspections should be effective in identifying all defects in
a garment. The checkers should have their forms filled
correctly. A good source of information to determine the
quality performance of the section is the point of 100%
inspection. The section supervisor should check thequality level at the point of 100% inspection periodically.
With this information, the supervisor should address the
problems, correct the possible causes and make plans to
prevent them.
7/28/2019 Assignment on Quality and Quality Control Final
25/30
(d) Pre-final audit
A pre-final audit should be performed on packed items on
a daily basis to ensure that the good packed items aremeeting the quality standards. Any problem seen can be
arrested at the early stage. If pre-final audits are done
properly, the final audit of the buyer should also be
carried out without any issues.
Quality Training:
The purpose of the training program is to train operators
to attain high speed and production together with good
quality work. Good quality comes from the consistent use
of correct methods
The steps to be taken to achieve good quality are as
follows:
1. Initial instruction
Point out the key points of method and quality to the
trainee and be sure that she understands them.
2. Trainee practice
When the trainee first practices an exercise, the instructorshould watch her methods very closely and correct any
incorrect methods immediately. The trainee should not be
timed or be permitted to start timing until she is doing the
exercise correctly. Even after starting her timing, the

In SQC technique attempt is made to seek out systematic
causes of variation as soon as they occur so that the actual
variation may be supposed to be due to the guranted
random causes.
Statistical quality control refers to the use of statistical
methods in the monitoring and maintaining of the quality
of products and services.
Basic Categories of Statistical Quality Control(S.Q.C):
All the tools of SQC are helpful in evaluating the quality
of services. SQC uses different tools to analyze quality
problem.
1) Descriptive Statistics
2) Statistical Process Control (SPC)3) Acceptance Sampling
1. Descriptive Statistics:
Descriptive Statistics involves describing quality
characteristics and relationships.
2. Statistical process control (SPC):The application of statistical techniques to determine
whether a process is functioning as desired
3. Acceptance Sampling:
7/28/2019 Assignment on Quality and Quality Control Final
28/30
The application of statistical techniques to determine
whether a population of items should be accepted or
rejected based on inspection of a sample of those items.
Variations of Statistical Quality Control(S.Q.C):
1. Allowable or cause variation
2. Assignable or preventable variation
Function of Statistical Quality Control(S.Q.C):
1. Evaluation of quality standards of incomeing material,product process and finished goods.
2. Judging the conformity of the process to establish
standards taking suitable action , when deviation are
noted.
3. Evaluation of optimum quality, obtainable under given
condition.4. Improvement of quality and productivity by process
control and experimentation.
Main purpose of Statistical Quality Control(S.Q.C):
The main purpose of Statistical Quality Control(S.Q.C) is
to divide statistical method for separating allowablevariation from preventable variation.

The Significance of Statistical Quality Control(S.Q.C) in
the Textile Industry:
1. The expected quality of product can be produced andhence customers satisfaction can be achieved which
brings higher profit.
2. It is very easy to separate allowable variation from the
preventable variation by this.
3. It ensures an early detection of faults in process and
hence minimum wastage.
4. With its help one can easily defect the impact of chance
in production process in the change in quality.
5. It ensures overall co-ordination.
6. It can be use in the interpretation control chart.
Some test for quality control textile finishing:
Test For Quality Control:1. Shrinkage Test
2. GSM Test
3. Tensile Test
4. Tearing Test
5. Color Fastness Test
6. Rubbing fastness Test
7. PH Test8. Shade Matching Test
9. Fabric Width Test

Conclusion:There are many quality parameters in different types of fabric. And
there are also many different faults in different types of fabric, which are
effect in quality of fabric. If we control those faults and effects ,we canget the good quality of fabric. So quality control is very important for all
types of fabric and textiles.
