Garment Manufacturing MCQs (Set-4)

Consider a style with work content of 14.4 standard minutes and target takt of 0.80 min/garment. Before precedence and equipment restrictions, what is the theoretical minimum operator count?

Usable roll length is 180 m. Each ply needs a 5.8 m marker plus 0.20 m end loss. With five garments per ply, how many garment sets can be cut?

Two independent sewing sections have first-pass yields of 95% and 96%. Assuming garments must pass both without rework, what fraction passes first time?

Three tasks take 19, 16 and 13 seconds at one station. If whole tasks can be reassigned and no precedence constraint applies, what is the smallest task that can be moved to meet the 44-second target?

Style A uses 40 minutes setup plus 1.8 min per unit. Style B uses 100 minutes setup plus 1.2 min per unit. At what batch size are total times equal?

One operator can sew a seam in 0.9 min. To support 220 garments in a 110-minute activity window, how many identical parallel stations are needed?

Observed sewing time is 54 s at a performance rating of 110%. Allowance equals 10% of the final standard time. What is standard time?

At steady flow, a sewing line completes 60 garments/h and carries 90 garments in process on average. Estimate mean flow time.

Start with 1,000 garments. First-pass yield is 92%. Of the failures, 75% can be successfully reworked. How many good garments result after rework?

Two marker options contain the same garment pattern area. Marker B is 5% shorter at equal width. How does its efficiency compare to A?

Fusing and sewing in sequence have capacities of 240 and 180 components/h. Every garment requires two components through both stages. What is the steady output limit for whole garments per hour?

For stations rated at 150, 120 and 130 garments/h, a second identical operator is added at the 120 garments/h station. Ignoring other constraints, what is the new maximum line output?

Demand is 450 garments per shift of 450 productive minutes. Before a change, actual cycle time is 75 s. How many garments per shift must be added to meet demand?

At a production run, five garment sizes must appear in the ratio 1:2:3:2:1. How many size-3 garments are in a complete batch of 360 at this ratio?

During an eight-hour shift, a two-minute operation is active for 85% of the time. How many whole units can it finish?

After washing, bond failure occurs only in the fused collar. Which trial isolates the effect of fusing?

With 20 operators working 450 minutes each, 15 standard minutes per garment and 72% planning efficiency, what output is expected?

Purchased cloth is 1.60 m wide, but 3 cm at each edge are unusable. Over a 10 m marker length, what area can be used?

To plan for 720 good garments at 90% first-pass yield, how many must enter the line if repaired garments are excluded?

Two seam sections require stitch counts of 96 and 144. Starting and ending backtacks add six stitches at each end of each section. What total stitch count should be budgeted?

Spreading a 150 m fabric batch wastes 6 m. Marker utilization is 84% of the remaining fabric. At constant width, what equivalent length is used by pattern pieces?

On a seven-station line, total work per garment is 270 seconds and actual cycle time is 50 seconds. What is station balance efficiency?

Thirty 12-piece bundles each require one setup of 15 s and 25 s per garment. What total processing time is needed?

Holding two days of cut work protects sewing from cutting stops but adds large queues. Which policy first tests whether less stock can support stable flow?

Shipment demand is 600 garments. The line produces 90 per hour for five hours and then 75 per hour. How many hours are needed in total?
