Apparel Manufacturing
Reverses garment wash shrinkage to size the raw pattern block: raw length and width needed to land on the finished measurements, the growth added in each direction, the fabric consumption uplift and the spread caused by shrinkage variability.
Calculator
Apparel Manufacturing
Adds up garment thread consumption across the ISO 4915 stitch classes actually used — lockstitch, chainstitch, overedge and safety stitch — each at its own consumption factor, with wastage allowance and thread weight.
Calculator
Apparel Manufacturing
Scales a base-size tech pack measurement across a full size run from the grade rule, returning the top and bottom size measurements, the span of the run, the tolerance band and how far adjacent sizes overlap within tolerance.
Calculator
Mill Operations & Industrial Engineering
Builds a ratio pack from retail size demand: garments of each size per master carton by largest remainder allocation, the largest deviation from the demand curve, cartons required for the order and the biggest size overage it creates.
Calculator
Apparel Manufacturing
Calculates open-to-buy for a buying period from planned sales, markdowns, opening and closing stock and outstanding orders, alongside inventory turn, weeks of supply and gross margin return on inventory investment.
Calculator
Mill Operations & Industrial Engineering
Models yellowing of unfinished fabric in uncontrolled storage: acceleration factors from temperature, humidity and residual size, the yellowing rate they produce, current b* value, months until the acceptance limit and whether stock is already overdue.
Calculator
Apparel Manufacturing
Splits sewing line efficiency into performance and utilisation using earned, on-standard and attended minutes, accounting for absenteeism and off-standard time, and converts attended minutes into a labour cost per piece.
Calculator
Mill Operations & Industrial Engineering
Predicts loss of dye strength in storage: degradation rate after temperature correction, strength remaining now, the corrected dose needed to reach the original shade, the percentage dose increase and shelf life remaining against a strength limit.
Calculator
Apparel Manufacturing
Plans a cut order into lays: full lays at maximum ply height, the remainder garments and the short lay they need, how poorly that short lay uses the spread, total plies and the fabric the order will draw.
Calculator
Mill Operations & Industrial Engineering
Maximises fabric rolls per shipping container: rolls per layer, layers achievable with hexagonal nesting, the load limited by volume against the load limited by payload, volume and payload utilisation and the weight actually shipped.
