Greige Department in the Textile Industry The greige department plays a crucial role in handling unfinished fabrics directly after weaving. It is responsible for conducting fabric inspection, defect detection, quality control analysis, and ensuring the overall quality of the fabric production process. Sa by Sagar kumar Rathi
Importance of Quality Control in Greige Department Fabric Inspection The greige department conducts rigorous fabric inspection to identify and grade fabric quality, ensuring that any defects or imperfections are caught early in the production process. Defect Detection and Correction By thoroughly examining greige fabrics, defects are promptly identified, allowing for corrective actions to be taken to maintain high product quality standards. Quality Control Analysis Advanced techniques such as Failure Mode and Effects Analysis (FMEA) are applied to enhance the quality control analysis of greige fabrics and ensure that the final product meets the required standards.
Overview of the department's improvement work Continuous Improvement Consistent efforts to enhance processes and optimize quality. Collaborative Approach Teamwork and shared responsibility for achieving excellence in quality. Innovative Solutions Utilizing innovative approaches to address challenges and drive progress.
Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) in the Greige Department 1 Critical to Quality (CTQ) Parameters Measuring parameters such as fabric width, GSM, ends/picks, and shade variation are critical in maintaining product quality and reducing deviation from standard specifications.
Importance of ensuring CTQs (Critical to Quality) 1 Quality Standards Strict adherence to CTQs ensures that every product meets our quality standards. 2 Customer Satisfaction CTQs are directly linked to customer satisfaction, driving loyalty and trust. 3 Market Competitiveness Meeting CTQs enables us to remain competitive in the market and maintain our reputation.
