garment wastage calculation

Garment Wastage Calculation

This garments and industrial engineering guide is built for IE teams, line supervisors, and production planners.

Bangladesh-focused guide with practical calculation workflow.

Step-by-Step Explanation

  • Collect operation-time, manpower, output, and working-hour data accurately.
  • Apply standard IE formula in the same method every day for consistent tracking.
  • Use calculated values for target, balancing, and bottleneck decisions.

Formula

  • Efficiency % = (Day Production × SMV) / (Manpower × Working Hour × 60) × 100
  • Target/Day = (Manpower × Working Hour × 60 × Efficiency %) / SMV

Example Calculation

  • If production is 2,400, SMV is 1.0, manpower is 50, and hours are 8, efficiency is 100%.
  • Use the target/day formula to set realistic production commitment.

FAQ

  • Which value impacts efficiency most? SMV accuracy and manpower deployment both matter.
  • Should formulas be recalculated by style? Yes, each style should be measured separately.
