Module 2 — Inspection and Measurement

Covers garment inspection procedures and measurement discipline.

What you will be able to do

Inspect incoming material, in-line work and finished garments to a stated plan, classify defects consistently, and run a measurement audit that stands up to challenge.

The practical work

Draw the AQL sampling plan for a real order quantity at the buyer's inspection level, carry out a four-point fabric inspection on an incoming roll, then audit measurements on ten finished garments against the spec and tolerance. Record which findings are critical, major and minor, and check two inspectors against the same garments to expose classification drift.

Prerequisite: Read module 1 and pass its quiz first.

Module quiz

5 questions on Module 2 — Inspection and Measurement. Answer them all, then check your score before moving on. 4 correct or more is a pass. Your best score is saved on this device, and to your account when you are signed in. This is a self-check, not an accredited assessment.

  1. 1. In a single sampling plan with AQL 2.5, sample size 200, Ac 10 and Re 11, what happens at 11 major defects?

  2. 2. What does the four-point system score?

  3. 3. A garment's chest spec is 52 cm with a tolerance of ±1 cm. A measurement reads 53.4 cm. What is the correct call?

  4. 4. Why are inspectors calibrated against the same set of defect samples?

  5. 5. What is the purpose of in-line inspection rather than end-line only?
