Set up one cut order and prove the cut is fit to sew
You have an 18,000-piece order in a mid-weight fabric with a repeat check, three colours and six sizes. You plan the cut, run it and prove the cut parts are usable.
Who this is for: Cutting-room managers, markers, planners and quality staff.
What you produce: A cut-order file: relaxation and spreading plan, marker and utilisation figures, the cut plan, the cut-part quality checks and traceability.
Nobody marks this for you. Write your own answer, compare it with the guidance under each task, then mark the capstone done when you are satisfied with it. Your writing is saved on this device, and to your account when you sign in.
Task 1
Write the fabric relaxation and spreading plan for this fabric, and say what happens if relaxation is cut short.
What a good answer contains: A good answer states relaxation time and conditions from the fabric's behaviour and links a short relaxation directly to garments shrinking after sewing.

Task 2
Plan the markers and cut: sizes per marker, ply heights, utilisation target, and how the check repeat constrains you.
What a good answer contains: A good answer trades utilisation against matching requirements openly, states its utilisation figure and how it was measured, and limits ply height by fabric and accuracy.

Task 3
Set the cut-part quality checks: what is measured, on which plies, how often, and the reaction to a failure.
What a good answer contains: A good answer checks top, middle and bottom plies against the pattern, defines a tolerance, and gives a reaction that stops the spread rather than a note.

Task 4
Design the bundling and numbering so a shade or size problem found in sewing can be traced back to a ply and a roll.
What a good answer contains: A good answer carries roll, lay, ply and size identity through bundles so containment is a bundle recall, not a whole-order sort.
