Stitches, Seams and Machines

You learn that a seam is fully specified in two numbers and no drawing. You see what each number means, which machine it buys, what it costs in minutes and thread, and what it does when somebody wearing the garment bends down.

Course value

What will you be able to do?

Work outcome

You can read a tech pack you did not write, name every gap in it, and turn it into a brief somebody can cost without guessing.

Who it is for

Factory and supplier teams.

What you will produce

You write a complete seam specification for one trouser order. You write every seam as a stitch type and a seam class with its density, thread, and needle. You cost two constructions side by side, per pair and per order. You read the machine list as a capacity plan with four priced ways out of a bottleneck. And you work a failure back from eleven returns to one machine setting.
