Abstract
This reports is based on my internship period at Irfan Textiles, which is situated at FerozePur Road, near Nushter Colony, Lahore. Irfan Textile Unit-I was established in 1990 and Unit-II was established in 1999. It was one of the first units of knitwear industry, which got ISO 9001 certification very first time then the other textile units. It is a major garments exporting unit of our country. Methodology, which 1 have adopted totally base on my personal observations, discussion with people and practicals performance. During my training I have went through all the process of dyeing and printing. In the start of this report 1 have given a brief introduction about the textile and knitwear industry cf Pakistan, information about company and than I have discussed the process tlow of dyeing lab, dyeing production, dyeing quality lab and procedure of printing. During my training I worked in dyeing lab to find out the exact procedure of recipe formation and appropriate method for shade matching. I have also worked in printing department to find out the printing faults coming due to the printing screen development along with causes of occurrence and than recommendations have gi\ en to minimize the printing faults and improvement of quality. Fisheyes and Pinholes. overlapping and under lapping of printing paste. Uneven color print. Screen Blockage are some main faults occur during printing. During my Internship period at Irfan Textiles, I have observed that workers on the floor were not much trained and motivated towards their work and ultiinately shades was not matched with standards and just because of this rate of re-dyeing (rework on lot) was very high. Production rate was also slow due to tiring of workers at floor level after the attack of 11 September 2001. At the end I have given some recommendations according to my observation. There should be proper training program for employees to minimize the redyeing (rework) process. Some incentives should also be given, not only for effectiveness of production but also for good efficiency
