3. Total Textile Process at a Glance

4. Marker is the thin paper in which all necessary pattern
pieces are drawn, in such a way to minimize the fabric
wastage. It gives the special instruction for cutting. It can
be done both manually and computerized method.

6. •Marker making can be done by two processes one is manual
method and another is computerized method.
–In computerized method all information are in the pre
fashionable data file and an operator helps the
computer to make the best choice.
–In manual method marker making is done by efficient
marker maker.

10. •In this process, at first
production pattern is
entered in the memory of
computer by using
digitizing, scanning, and full
size production pattern also
stored in memory of
computer but all pattern
pieces are displayed in
miniature from at the top of
screen.

12. •There are two types of computerized marker is available.
•Automatic marker making
•Interactive marker making
•Automatic marker making:
•Computer makes marker itself. Marker making is done automatically by
previously planned data more efficient marker is obtained by this method.
•Interactive marker making:
•It is a common process, where the planer makes the marker with the help of
computer. All the pattern pieces are displayed in the miniature from at the
top of the screen. A horizontal line in the middle of screen is seen which is
called width of marker. A vertical line placed left side of horizontal line is

13. Marker is attached fabric lay by pin or gum. Marker works as a guide during
fabric cutting. Marker paper is cut during fabric cutting for that marker copy is
needed. These are many methods of duplicating methods of duplicating
marker making:
Drawing the marker by hand:
•Carbon duplicating method
•Sprit duplicating method
•Photograph or light sensitive paper method
•Perforated marker
•Computerized marker
•Photographic system

14. •Drawing by chalk or pencil:
•In this method marker is drawn
directly on fabric. According to
marker plan pattern pieces are
directly placed on the fabric
then chalk is made by pipe clay
or wax or fluorescent. In
requires more time and highly
skilled planer. It is an ancient
method. It is less use in
garments industry but more
use in tailoring.

15. The marker planner measures his success by the efficiency
of the marker plan. If the marker efficiency is high the
fabric wastage will be less. Fabric price is half of total price
of garments. So 1% marker efficiency means that profit
include with total profit. For that increasing marker
efficiency is more important. Marker efficiency cab be
calculate by following formula-
Marker efficiency=

16. Factor related to marker efficiency are as below:
1.Marker planner:
2.Size of garments:
3.Marker length:
4.Marker width:
5.Pattern engineering:
6.Fabric characteristics:
7.Marker making method:

17. At first a marker maker placed big patterns on marker paper.
Then small pattern are placed in the gap of the big patterns to
minimize the fabric wastages. After that pattern pieces are
moved in various directions to increase the maker efficiency.
The obstacles of marker:
1.Grain line .
2.The design and characteristics of finished garment.
3.Symmetry or asymmetry of fabric.
4.The design and characteristics of finished garment.

18. Generally highest uses of marker depend on marker efficiency.
But some fabric wastages are happened which are the out of
control of marker plan. Descriptions are as below, which are
the causes of fabric losses.
1.Ends of ply lose
2.Losses of fabric Ends
3.Selvedge losses
4.Purchase loss

19. Without practical knowledge education cannot be effective. So the
importance of the practical visit as well as mill visit is beyond discussion.
First of all we want to say with great regret that through garment
industry is a blooming sector for Bangladesh which can boost up our
economy but there lies deficiency in using technology.
It is mentioned that our visited textile mills is a composite factory
having garments, knitting and dyeing section but there are only three
textile engineer and the others are non technical person. That’s why
they use manual process for marker making, fabric spreading and fabric
cutting will be done. They use a technology to reduce the wastage of
fabric that is to maintain the fabric width according to the cutting table
width. It is mentioned the computerized marker making is not effective
for the knit project as well as the weaving project.
