Study on Operation Factors and Standard Time of Clothing Cutting Process

With increasing competition in garment industry, many companies have to improve their efficiency of production and reduce the cost through management, which have become one of the important issues of garment production research. In this paper, the process of garment cutting was divided into several key factors. Combined with the real situation of garment cutting in manufactory, the related influence factors of every factor were also discussed. Based on the study of the process of cutting, the operation processes of garment cutting were investigated and the time consumption of every process was measured. The parameters used for time consumption were proposed. It can be expected that the results of this research can be used to provide reference on the determination of standard time of cutting processes. The results of this research are also great instructive importance for the enterprises to improve the efficiency of garment cutting and the standardization of operation time in order to make a scientific and reasonable working schedule for decreasing production cost and increasing economic benefits.
