Advanced Level of Technologies and It’s ROI in Apparel Manufacturing by Dr. Prabir Jana Pdf

Getting higher productivity doesn’t mean working for more time with the available resources. It is all about how smartly we work. On a sewing floor, it refers to how efficient we are at doing a piece of work, i.e. opting the best method with the combination of most recent technology available. This not only increases the productivity but also saves money, improves quality by reducing defects. Following the above concept, a series of articles review the different levels of technology solutions available for an operation, the make and models of machinery and equipment available in the market. At the outset, it must be borne in mind that many of the operations are complex, time consuming and require a skilled operator. The process can be greatly simplified by using automatic machines available for the purpose, which, promisingly enough, also give a fair ROI. This is calculated for each of the operations to gauge the overall advantage an automatic machine holds over a basic manually operated one.

Technology and the Search for Progress in Modern Mexico by Edward Beatty Pdf

In the late nineteenth century, Mexican citizens quickly adopted new technologies imported from abroad to sew cloth, manufacture glass bottles, refine minerals, and provide many goods and services. Rapid technological change supported economic growth and also brought cultural change and social dislocation. Drawing on three detailed case studies—the sewing machine, a glass bottle–blowing factory, and the cyanide process for gold and silver refining—Edward Beatty explores a central paradox of economic growth in nineteenth-century Mexico: while Mexicans made significant efforts to integrate new machines and products, difficulties in assimilating the skills required to use emerging technologies resulted in a persistent dependence on international expertise.

A Forecast of Advances in the Apparel Manufacturing Industries Over the Next Five Years by Morton L. Silverstein Pdf

A general technological survey and short range forecast of probable garment fabrication techniques and apparel industry operations was undertaken. The investigation revealed that over the next five years significant improvements in the productivity and in the management functions of the industry will develop. It appears that the impact of these developments will result in more rapid and more mechanized output of the same type of clothing generally available today, rather than in completely new types of apparel.
