    Development of regression model to investigate the correlation of selected input parameters to the thread consumption of over-lock stitch 514
    Author(s): T.S. Niroshan*

    The cost of manufacturing and distribution of apparel products are highly depended on the sewing thread consumption. Thus, the calculation of sewing thread consumption has to be done accurately using effective methods. Due to the inefficiency of the existing formulae, the predictions of thread requirement became inaccurate. The consumption calculations exhibit significant error percentages due to the ignorance of important parameters which effect on thread consumption. This study investigates on correlation of many parameters such as GSM, seam width, SPI, frequency, thickness of fabric and yarn count to thread consumption of over-lock stitch 514. The existing thread consumption formulae are optimized by considering new parameters, using regression analysis and geometrical modelling techniques. For the over-lock stitch 514, results indicate that above parame.. View more»
