Cutting Master Hint: Combining multiple sizes in one cutting lay (e.g. 1 Small + 2 Medium + 1 Large) reduces marker dead space, improving fabric utilization by 6% to 9% compared to single-size lays.

Frequently Asked Questions

Fabric consumption formulas, cutting allowance, and roll metrics

Formula: Total Meters = [ Order Quantity × Marker Consumption per piece ] × [ 1 + (Cutting Wastage % ÷ 100) ]. For example, producing 200 shirts at 1.6m each with a 5% end-loss allowance requires (200 × 1.6) × 1.05 = 336 meters.

Narrow 44-inch fabric cannot fit large garment panels (like shirt sleeves or trouser legs) side by side across the marker width, forcing linear lay placement and consuming ~30-40% more linear meters than 58-inch wide fabric.

In Nepali garment factories and tailoring workshops, a 4% to 6% buffer is standard to account for fabric roll end-bits, splice overlaps, selvedge trimming, and minor yarn slubs.

Divide total required meters by the standard roll length (e.g. 50m) and round up to the nearest whole integer. Any remainder fabric is tracked in inventory as remnant stock for collar bands, cuffs, or pockets.

ByaparOS Bill of Materials (BOM) calculates precise roll allocations by shade lot, tracks cutting table remnant scraps, and automatically deducts raw fabric stock upon cutting job ticket completion.
