Calculator in This Article
SMV Calculator
Calculate Standard Minute Value for garment operations. Essential for production planning and costing.
Line Efficiency
Calculate sewing line efficiency with all required IE fields: day production, SMV, manpower, working hours, and target/day.
Line Balancing
Calculate line balancing efficiency and identify bottlenecks.
Production Capacity
Calculate daily/hourly production capacity of a sewing line.
Professional Workflow
- Define scope, period, and unit system before calculation.
- Collect source values from verifiable records.
- Run baseline and conservative cases before final decisions.
Formula And Method
- Line efficiency % = (production * SMV) / (manpower * hours * 60) * 100.
- Capacity/day = (manpower * hours * 60 * expected efficiency %) / SMV.
- Use a single approved SMV/SAM standard across planning and reporting layers.
Quality And Accuracy Checks
- Use current style-specific SMV and approved method bulletin.
- Separate downtime and non-productive time from productive minutes.
- Track hourly variance, not only end-of-day aggregate values.
Implementation Notes
- Store input assumptions with timestamps for future review.
- Recalculate on every major rate, policy, or demand change.
- Use related calculators for sensitivity analysis and cross-validation.
