It becomes necessary to maintain the quality right from the production stage in order to deliver a satisfactory final product to the consumer with the right quality which in turn results in getting continuous orders from the same customers. The garment manufacturers inspect their products by designated responsible inspectors then only the right quality product will reach the consumer. Under quality assurance process, the bulk production is inspected before delivered to the customers.

Testing is a valuable aid for textile production, distribution, and consumption. During textiles testing the variation of a fibre or fabric i.e. length, colour, fineness, threads per inch, cover factor, is detected properly. Continuous test of the textiles results a enhanced and efficient output of the production. By Apparel Testing we can evaluate and ensure the quality of the garments to be used by the end users.
The zipper is a popular device which acts as a fastener for temporarily joining two edges of the fabric. The zipper is a part of the everyday costume. Also called slide fastener. a device used for fastening clothing, valises, etc., consisting of two toothed tracks or spiral metal or plastic coils, each bordering one of two edges to be joined, and a piece that either interlocks or separates them when pulled.

Plain weave is the most common and tightest of basic weave structures in which the filling threads pass over and under successive warp threads and repeat the same pattern with alternate threads in the following row, producing a chequered surface. They do not ravel easily but tend to wrinkle and have less absorbency than other weaves. The plain weave is variously known as Calico or Tabby weave. It is the simplest of all weaves having a repeat size of 2.

Symbols are written on labels, attached to textiles to indicate how a particular item should best be cleaned. Textile and apparel labels can help you consider alternative choices and make better buying decisions if you take time to read them. Permanent Care Labels (PCL) use symbols to explain how to care for wearing apparel and home sewing fabrics, so consumers need to learn the basic symbols.

A draft indicates the number of heald shafts used to produce a given design and the order is which warp ends are threaded through the heald eyes of the heald shaft. The principle of drafting (i.e. putting of ends on different healed shafts) is that ends which work in different order require separate heald shafts. To keep matters simple, we can also say that the ends that work alike are put on the same heald shaft.

The process of producing a fabric by interlacing warp and weft threads is known as weaving. The machine used for weaving is known as weaving machine or loom. Weaving is an art that has been practiced for thousands of years. The earliest application of weaving dates back to the Egyptian civilization. In order to interlace wrap and weft threads to produce a fabric, the basic mechanisms necessary for any type of looms are Primary, Secondary and Auxiliary mechanisms.

Weaving is the process of making fabrics by interlacing the threads lengthwise and widthwise commonly known as warp and weft in a regular order. The operation is performed in a machine called a loom. Two sets of yarns are interlaced, almost always at right angles to each other. One, called the warp, runs lengthwise in the loom; the other, called the filling, weft or woof, runs crosswise. The raising and lowering sequence of warp threads in various sequences give many possible weave structures.
