Abstract/Hauptbeschreibung (Englisch)

The incoming control of fabrics is carried out upon their receipt in three production cycles. In the most general case, it is the cycle when the finished fabric enters the tailoring department of the sewing enterprise. In the second cycle, the raw fabric enters a finishing workshop and after processing, is sent to the sewing plant. At the beginning of the third cycle, the raw fabric enters a dyeing shop, after dyeing it is directed to the finishing and finally to the sewing plant. In all three cases, it is necessary to apply observations, measurements, and tests, which for the most part are the same and prescribed in detail in the relevant industry standards. The greater variety is found in the types of fabric. According to the basic construction, the fabrics are woven or knitted, leading to significant test methods differences. The fibrous composition; of wool, cotton, and man-made fibres also provoke a different approach to assessing quality compliance. Each cycle is characterized by the logical sequence of sampling - S, laboratory testing - T and quality assessment - E. Depending on the variants and the specificity of the cycle, the samples may be representative samples of the entire batch of fabric, pieces of fabric from the beginning of each roll or observations of the entire length of the fabric. In addition, laboratory tests can be performed as a measurement of geometric parameters and area mass, physicomechanical tests, and visual inspection of the entire length of the fabric. For this reason, the cycles are spirally interconnected and the tests tend to expand in detailed analysis. The subject of this article is the working procedure for the implementation of incoming quality control of fabrics in organizations with implemented quality management systems (QMS) according to ISO 9001. The work aims to differentiate the individual elements of the procedure and to ensure quality compliance by minimal resources. Keywords: fabrics, sewing production, input quality control
