Integrating the cutting and sewing room of Garment Manufacture using mechatronic techniques
Mechatronics, 1995Co-Authors: C.a. CzarneckiAbstract:Abstract The design and development are described of a mechatronic system which automates the stripping operation performed in Garment Manufacture. Stripping is the process of removing Garment piece parts from a cutting table. All aspects of the development and implementation are reported, starting from an initial study undertaken to establish the feasibility and potential benefits of automating the process, through mechanical design to the automatic computer control system employed. The use of knowledge based technology is shown to be suitable for application to the programming and control of complex mechatronic systems.

the development of a robotic handling cell to perform the stripping operation in Garment Manufacture
International Conference on Robotics and Automation, 1994Co-Authors: C.a. CzarneckiAbstract:This paper describes the development of a robotic handling cell that performs the stripping operation in Garment Manufacture. Stripping is the process of removing Garment piece parts from a cutting table and loading them onto a transportation system which feeds the pieces to sewing stations where the Garments are made. The concept of automated stripping is completely novel and the development from initial feasibility study through to implementation is presented. The requirement of the cell to fit in with the CIM concept and the necessity of an automated planning and programming environment are discussed. >

automated stripping a robotic handling cell for Garment Manufacture
IEEE Robotics & Automation Magazine, 1995Co-Authors: C CzarneckiAbstract:The cutting room is currently the most highly automated part of the Garment industry's manufacturing cycle. The next step, stripping the pieces from the cutting table and sorting them for assembly, is still highly labor intensive. At De Montfort University a robotic handling cell to perform the stripping operation has been developed and demonstrated. >

a review of fusible interlinings usage in Garment Manufacture
Polymers, 2018Co-Authors: Qian Bo-zhangAbstract:The consumer's enhanced awareness of Garment quality, appearance, and related eco-safety production Manufacture means that not only shell fabrics, but also accessory materials should be paid much more attention. Interlining is the one of the most important and state of the art accessory materials that currently lacks review and exploration. This article comprehensively demonstrates an organizational integration of interlinings which includes their history, classification, Manufacture, characteristic, properties, function, fusing technology and application. In addition, the article highlights a new innovation of printable interlining, which could replace the traditional fusible interlinings because of its cost-effectiveness, its simple process and its environmentally-friendly nature.

Thinking sewing machines for intelligent Garment Manufacture
International Journal of Clothing Science and Technology, 1996Co-Authors: George K Stylios, J.o. SotomiAbstract:Quantitative fabric‐needle‐sewing machine interactions at different speeds have been used to construct qualitative rules mapping fabric properties to optimum sewing machine settings for the next generation of “intelligent sewing machines”, using model free estimation. The inference procedures of fuzzy logic have been implemented in a neural network to allow for optimization of output membership functions and subsequently, self‐learning. The technique is successfully applied to industrial lockstitch and overlock sewing machines. Optimum settings were achieved under static and dynamic machine conditions from the properties of difficult fabrics and compensation for mishandling by the operator over the speed range of the sewing machine.

The principles of intelligent textile and Garment manufacturing systems
Assembly Automation, 1996Co-Authors: George K StyliosAbstract:Despite the globalization and internalization of competition and surplus of apparel production, high labour costs and other economic pressures, apparel products are still being produced using traditional methods and machinery, the mechanics of which have not fundamentally changed since the seventeenth century, even nowadays when the materials produced are very flexible and diverse in texture and properties. In developing the industry further, the nature of interaction between machinery, fabric and operatives has to be taken into account, and this poses some real problems if one has to put forward realistic solutions for future industrial development. It is therefore important to be able to take into consideration fabric/machine/human interactions during the manufacturing process in order to propose the next generation of manufacturing systems which is much needed in the current apparel industry. Reports on findings in the area of intelligent Garment Manufacture which is a means of introducing flexibility, quality, production efficiency and maximization of resources to the apparel industry. Primarily emphasizes the importance of fabric properties and their interaction with the whole manufacturing process, the labour force and especially with sewing. In order to achieve this, applies computational intelligence and engineering to research, develop and implement intelligent textile and apparel environments, and introduce desired flexibility into the whole area of textile and apparel processes, especially in terms of quick response (QR) and just in time (JIT).

Modelling the dynamic drape of fabrics on synthetic humans: a physical, lumped‐parameter model
International Journal of Clothing Science and Technology, 1995Co-Authors: George K Stylios, Tao Ruan Wan, N.j. PowellAbstract:True 3‐D Garment design (CAD) systems are fundamental for the next generation of intelligent textile and Garment Manufacture and retailing. Reports a new approach for modelling fabric. The fabric model is developed based on a physical analogue to a deep shell system for describing and predicting the real 3‐D shape of clothes. The fabric motion is determined by deformation energy, gravity and external constraints, such as collision forces, using the deformable node bar concept. The advantages of this model are that engineering parameters can be used as model parameters directly and that the model is configured based on the surface co‐ordinate system, which is believed to be important as the basis of a powerful fashion CAD system. The model successfully simulated fabric drape and has been implemented on a synthetic female model.

A New Concept in Garment Manufacture: “THE SEWABILITY INTEGRATED ENVIRONMENT” INCORPORATING AUTOMATED OBJECTIVE MEASUREMENT SYSTEMS
International Journal of Clothing Science and Technology, 1992Co-Authors: George K Stylios, Jintu Fan, J.o. Sotomi, R. DeaconAbstract:Introduces a new concept which has been developed to combat the problems of sewability, named “the Sewability Integrated Environment”. It aims at knitted as well as woven materials and incorporates automated objective measurement systems to achieve automatic prediction of seam pucker, and sewing damage, on‐line optimum sewing conditions and the necessary amount of fabric property correction in fabric Finishing. Describes and discusses these systems and puts forward arguments and new ideas for future research in advance Garment Manufacture.
