 CHAPTER-Ⅰ

1.1 INTRODUCTION:
An internship is a temporary position with an emphasis on on-the-job training rather
than merely employment, and it can be paid or unpaid. An internship is an opportunity
offered by an employer to potential employees, called interns, to work at a firm for a fixed,
limited period of time. Interns are students, and most internships last for any length of time
between one week and 12 months. Internships (also called placements, work placements, or
industrial placements) may be part-time.

8
 Internships offer students a period of practical experience in the industry relating to
their study. This experience is valuable to students as a means of allowing them to experience
how their studies are applied in the real world and as work experience that can be highly
attractive to potential employers on a candidate’s CV.
Students all have their educational experience in common. What stands out to
employers is those students who also have work experience by the time they graduate. This
automatically makes them more marketable; as they may require less training and are
assumed to be able to handle more responsibilities. In addition to the specialized skills of
your field, transferable skills are generally required at any job.
Most students enter college with an idea of a major or career path, and most students
end up changing their minds. Exploring is a very important part of the academic process, and
gaining work experience is a great way for students to acquaint themselves with a field they
are looking to learn about. By the time of graduation, the students have confidence that the
degree they are receiving is the right one for them.
Many people learn best by being hands-on. But everyone can benefit from seeing the
things that they have been learning in class put to action; whether it’s in a chemistry research
lab, a marketing development meeting, or a substance abuse counseling session.
It's all about who you know. As a student intern, you are surrounded by professionals
in the industry that you are seeking access to. It's more than just about getting a grade,
earning credit, or making money. This is an opportunity to learn from everyone around you,
ask questions, and impress them with your eagerness. These people can be your future
colleagues or can be the connection to your first job.
Learn your strengths and weaknesses by creating objectives and receiving feedback
from your supervisor. This is a unique learning opportunity that you may never have again as
a working adult. Embrace the mistakes that you will make and the things you won’t know.
Ask questions, observe, and take risks.

1.2 OBJECTIVES:
1) To gain practical exposure to real-life on-the-job experiences.
2) To apply theoretical classroom knowledge in practical situations.
3) To study the work atmosphere of the employees.
4) To get exposure and gain experience in a corporate environment.
5) To learn the various manufacturing processes and functional areas.
6) To understand each department's contribution and their importance for growth in a
company.

materials, or the process of being so manufactured. The production department is where the
tangible inputs like raw materials, semi-finished goods, sub-assemblies, and tangible input
like ideas, information knowledge, are converted into finished goods or services.
Production management becomes the acceptable term from 1930s to 1950s. As F.W.

FABRIC DEFECTS:
These defects are found in the fabric and are mostly not caused by the Inspection. Fabric
defects could be addressed at the point of fabric inspection. Fabric defects are classified as
below.
 Critical Defects:
 Non-Conformity that impacts customers safety in reasonable use of the
product or that represents a legal risk.

 Major Defect:
 Non-Conformity that impacts or forbid the sale, the use or assembly of the
product, or main function of the products.

 Minor Defect:
 Non-Conformity that doesn’t impact sale, use, assembly but can affect the
perception of quality from customer.
 For sure, customer will detect it in the store meanwhile, he will decide to buy
the item.

VISUAL DEFECTS:

 Rust Stain
 Knitting Flies
 Needle Line
 Shade Variation
 Softener Mark
 Oil Dot

 Dye Dots

FABRIC INSPECTION PROCEDURE:

37
 DEFECTS ARE IDENTIFIED AND ASSIGNED WITH A NUMBER OF POINTS
DEPENDING ON THE SEVERITY/ LENGTH OF THE FABRIC
PENALITY POINTS
SIZE OF DEFECTS

Defect between 0 to 3 inches in length/ width (0 to 8cm) 1

Defect between 3.1 to 6 inches in length/ width (8.1 to 15cm) 2

Defect between 6.1 to 9 inches in length/ width (15.1 to 23cm) 3

Defect over 9 inches in length or the full width (23cm) 4

During the quality checking process, the fabrics undergo a thorough inspection to identify
any defects. Each type of defect is assigned a specific penalty point based on its severity.
The cumulative penalty points for all identified defects are then tallied. If the total penalty
points exceed 25, the batch of fabrics is deemed to have failed the quality standards and is
subsequently rejected. This system ensures that only fabrics meeting the highest quality
criteria are approved, maintaining the overall integrity and reputation of the production
process.

DEFECT CALCULATION
 For One Roll:
Average points / 100 Sq. yards =
Total defect points ×3600
Length of roll inspected ∈ yard∗Cuttable width∈inches

 For One Roll:

Average points / 100 Sq. metre =
Total defect points ×10000
Length of roll inspected ∈metre∗Cuttable width∈cm
