Ensuring the quality of fabrics is a critical part of ensuring the quality of finished products, which can be achieved through the inspection and measurement of incoming fabrics.
This process can effectively improve the authenticity rate of garments.
Fabric inspection involves two aspects: appearance quality and inner quality.
Appearance quality focuses on checking for damages, stains, weaving defects, color difference, and other defects that can impact the garment's appearance.
Sand-washed fabrics should also be checked for sand-washing defects such as sand channels, dead pleats, and cracks. Defects that affect the appearance need to be marked with tags during inspection, and should be avoided when cutting.
The intrinsic quality of the fabric mainly includes three items: shrinkage rate, color fastness, and gram weight (mommi, ounce).
During inspection and sampling, representative samples of different varieties and colors produced by different manufacturers should be cut for testing to ensure the accuracy of the data.
Auxiliary materials entering the factory, such as elastic belts, adhesive lining, zippers, should also be inspected for quality, including their shrinkage rate, adhesive fastness, and smoothness. Auxiliary materials that do not meet the requirements will not be used in production.
