Abstract

PURPOSE:To provide the title system capable of switching running system for every division. CONSTITUTION:A specified number of sewed products common in sewing parameters (e.g. color, size) as one sewing unit is automatically imparted with lot numbers (61). Lot running system designed to control sewing units by lots and run these units to the line and number running system designed to control sewed products according to the sewed products' number irrespective of sewing parameters are provided. Changeover between the lot running and number running systems is made for every division (30-100). This change is made in such a manner that the running system is rewritten, for every division, in its memory containing the data whether the running system corresponding to each division is lot or number running system. Thus, kind of running system can be determined in consideration of the work unique to a division in question, enabling efficient work.

Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a production management system at the time of sewing, and more particularly to a production management system at the time of sewing in which a plurality of departments are provided, and each department manages a sewn product.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art In a sewing factory, when a sewn product is produced, a lot number and a loading order are determined based on sewing parameters such as color and size. A sewing factory has various departments such as cutting, sewing, finishing, and finishing, and each department must manage the amount of sewn products. In this sewn product management system, the number-of-sheets-sending system is used to manage how many pieces are sewn or other work is performed without considering the color and size, and the sewing parameters such as color and size are specified. There is a lot flow method in which each of the lots is flowed for each lot, and not only the number of prints but also the sewing parameters are taken into consideration for advanced management.

[0003]

[Problems to be Solved by the Invention] In the case of the flow-through method based on the number of sheets, it is possible to grasp the output amount. whether the thing of what the state can not recognize is flowing, also can not be that the determination of whether the whether the lagging is proceeding on the basis of the production plan.

In a sewing factory, a cutting department uses a sheet-feeding method to cut a raw material and divide it into parts. After being divided into parts, each part is sewn, finished, and shipped. It is preferable to carry out the lot flow method. Although the prior art has a number-of-sheets-flowing method, neither a lot-flowing method nor a composite-flowing method based on those departments.

From the flow system, the lot flow is advantageous because various data can be grasped in various ways, but there is a drawback that the management becomes complicated accordingly. In addition, there is also a department where the size and number of sheets need to be managed because the object to be sewn is a uniform color such as school uniform. Furthermore, the type of sewn product may initially require lot control, but then no longer, or vice versa.

Therefore, the present invention has been made in view of the above points, and an object thereof is to provide a production control system at the time of sewing, which can switch the flow system for each department.

[0007]

In order to solve this problem, the present invention has a plurality of departments, and in each of the departments, in a production management system at the time of sewing in which a sewing product is managed and sewing is performed, a sewing parameter is set. A lot number is automatically assigned to a predetermined number of common sewing products as one sewing unit, the sewing unit is managed for each lot and the lot flow is flown to the line, and the sewing products are sewn according to the number of sewing products regardless of the sewing parameters. We have set up a sheet number control to manage, and adopted a configuration that allows switching between the lot number and sheet number for each department.

[0008]

The changing of the flow method for each department is performed by rewriting the flow method for each department in the storage unit that stores only the lot flow or the number flow for the flow system corresponding to the department. In this way, since the sink system can be changed according to each department, the sink system can be determined in consideration of the work peculiar to the department.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS The present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the embodiments shown in the drawings.

FIG. 1 showing an embodiment of the present invention includes a planning department 2
0, original fabric storage department 30, postponement department 40, cutting department 50,
A production line of a sewing factory including a sorting section 60, a sewing section 70, a grouping section 80, a finishing section 90, a shipping section 100, and a host computer 10 that manages the entire sewing is illustrated. Host computer 10
Is a CPU 1 for managing the whole, input means such as a keyboard 4, output means such as a monitor 2 and a printer 3, and a ROM
5, RAM 6 and other storage means.

Next, the flow of production management according to the present invention will be described with reference to the flow showing the overall flow of FIG.

First, a sewing order is registered from the planning department 20. The contents of the order are the contents shown in FIG. 3 (A), which are 30, 40, and 50 pieces of No. 7 size red, white, and blue skirts, respectively, and No. 9 size red, white,
Suppose there are 50, 60, and 70 blue skirts, respectively. As the order contents, data such as a product number (corresponding to a sewn product such as a skirt), a color, a size, and the number of sheets is input through the keyboard 4. This input is performed by determining the color and size as shown in step S1 of FIG. 2, reading out the color and size from the master data, and inputting the number thereof.

The data input from the keyboard 4 is stored in the RAM 6 via the CPU 1 which manages the entire sewing. Further, a ROM 5 storing a program for controlling the entire flow, fixed data, etc. is connected to the CPU 1, and further data or ROM calculated by the CPU 1 is connected.
5, the data stored in the RAM 6 can be output by the display 2 or the printer 3.

When this order is registered, the red, white, and blue original fabrics 31 are carried to the fabric spreading machine 41 and spread. This extended state is shown in detail in FIGS. 3 (B) and 3 (C). In FIG. 3 (B), there are three originals 3 of red 1, red 2, and red 3.
2, white 1, white 2, white 3 three originals 33, blue 1, blue 2,
Three rolls 34 of blue 3 are shown. First, the original fabric of Red 1 is placed on the fabric spreading device 41 and the fabric of No. 7 is rolled.
Supposing that 10 sheets can be spread from this original fabric, then the original fabric of White 1 is carried to the spreading machine and the No. 7 size is changed to 10 from this original fabric.
When one roll of paper has run out due to the unrolling of the rolls, blue 1
15 sheets of No. 7 size are rolled out from the original fabric, and the first rolling is completed. Next, the red 2, white 2, and blue 2 rolls are similarly spread to size 7. The reason that the multicolored original fabric is extended every time one original fabric is finished is to facilitate the separation in the sorting step described later. In this case, it is possible to extend 10, 15, and 20 sheets, respectively. To do. After the end of this second roll, red 3, white 3, and blue 3 rolls were each set to size 7
The 0, 15, and 20 sheets are postponed, and the third postponement, that is, the postponement of all the ordered sheets of 120 sheets is completed.

This state is schematically shown in FIG. 3C and in the form of a table in FIG. 3D, and it can be understood that the respective colors are laminated in the order of the above-mentioned spreading. In addition, in this embodiment, the red, white, and blue original fabrics are spread, but red 1
It is also possible to extend red 3, white 1 to white 3, and blue 1 to blue 3 in this order.

The same applies to the No. 9 size.

After the spreading has been carried out in this way, FIG.
The No. 7 size laminated web 42 and No. 9 size laminated web 43 shown in (E) and (F) are carried to the cutting machine 51 of FIG. 1 and cut into sewing parts. The cutting (or spreading) of (D) or (E) and (F) of FIG. 3 is stored in the RAM 6 via the keyboard 4 as a cutting result input 52.
This state is step S2 in FIG.

Next, the cut sewing parts are sorted and lot numbers are assigned (step S3). This state is shown in FIGS. 4 and 5, and the lot number is automatically assigned as follows. First, if you enter the product number via the keyboard in step T1, the registered colors and sizes are displayed (step T1).
2) Select a color and a size, and input a predetermined number of sheets having the same color and size, that is, the number of lots, into the place of the smallest lot number developed (step T3,
T4). Next, it is judged whether there is a lot of another color and size (step T5). If there is a lot, an unused lot number is searched for in step T6, and the lot number is displayed in step T7. Enter and automatically assign the lot number.

This predetermined number of sheets corresponds to the number of sheets when the above-mentioned spreading is performed. In this way, Red 7, White 7, Blue 7
The lot number is automatically assigned for each predetermined number of sheets by changing each color and size like No. 9, Red 9, White 9, and Blue 9. When all the inputs have been completed, the registration key is pressed in step T8 to store the lot number data in the memory (step T9). Registration of such lot numbers is
It corresponds to the reference numeral 61 in FIG. 1 and step S3 in FIG. 2, and the input screen display is indicated by reference numeral 62 in FIG. 5A and the state stored in the memory is indicated by reference numeral 63 in FIG. 5B. It is shown as a figure. As shown in (C), this lot number can be printed for each part in each lot as a label 64 on which a product number, a part name, a lot number, the number of lots, a color, and a size are printed.

The lot numbers shown in FIGS. 5 (A) and 5 (B) are, for example, given to the front sewn parts, and the front sewn parts similarly cut by the cutting section. The same lot number is given to other sewing parts formed of the same cloth as, for example, the sewing parts belonging to one piece such as the back body and the belt cloth. Therefore, the lot number of (1) is allotted to one piece of the sewn parts for No. 7 Red and 10 pieces of the sewn parts for the next 10 pieces of No. 7 Red (2). ) Is assigned, and lot numbers are sequentially assigned to all sizes and colors in the same manner. This state is schematically shown in FIGS. 7 (A) and 7 (B). A unit to which each of the sewing parts 65a to 65f is given a different lot number is hereinafter referred to as a sewing unit.

Therefore, each sewing unit is composed of a predetermined number of the same sewing parts having the same color and size and the same material, and in this case, the sewing units of other sewing parts belonging to one piece are also the same. Lot number is assigned. Therefore, the sewn parts of the same lot number have the same color, the same size, and the same number of pieces, and the sewn parts of the same lot number have the same color and size ( One piece etc. will be produced.

For each sewing unit, a label 6 printed with the part name (together with the product number) bundled with a string or the like and the lot number, the number of lots, the color, and the size.
4a to 64f are attached.

The above is the process up to step S4 in FIG. 2. When a lot number is given to a sewing unit, parts processing and assembling work are performed. For this reason, a throwing order number is given to the sewing unit, and the throwing order is registered (66 in FIG. 1 and step S5 in FIG. 2). The throwing-in order number is given based on the color because the sewing department gives priority to the color in order to reduce the color exchange work of the sewing thread, and is given based on the size in the case of the same color.
Therefore, the color order is now red, white, blue, and the size order is 7.
No.9 and No.9, lot numbers 1 to 3 are assigned to Red No. 7, so the input order numbers from <1> to <3> are given, and then the red sewing unit is Red No. 9 From 10 to 1
Since the lot number is 2, the order numbers <4> to <6> are respectively given to the lot numbers. Therefore, as shown in FIG. 6, (1-3), (10-1)
2), (4-6), (13-15), (7-9), (1
6-18) In order of each lot number, the order number <1
> To <18> are given.

The numbering of the order of loading is automatically given by designating the color order and the size order through the keyboard and sequentially reading the lot numbers having the same color and size.

Subsequently, as shown in FIG. 1, the sewing units are put into the sewing department 70 in the order of input and sewing is performed.
Before starting sewing, the host computer issues a work instruction to the sewing station 75 (step S).
6). The content of this work instruction is shown in FIG. 8, and comprises data such as department, point number, color, size, lot number, number of sheets, final target number of sheets, and the like. Here, the point number is the number of the terminal 71 provided at the entrance and exit (indicated by a circle in FIG. 1) of each department or station.

Terminals 7 provided at the entrance and exit of each department
1 has a structure as shown in FIG. 9 and is connected to the host computer 1 via a LAN or the like, and display units 71a and 72b display a lot number and a target number based on a work instruction. .. Further, the terminal device is provided with a counter switch 72d, and each worker operates the counter switch every time the sewing is completed and inputs the result thereof. The count number is displayed on the display unit 73c together with the lot number.

In this case, for each department, the number-of-sheets-flow method is suitable for the flow-through method (for example, a shipping department for packaging the finished product for each piece after finishing sewing for each part, etc.) and a lot-flow method. Since there is a suitable section (sewing section, etc.), the flow system of that department is detected from the master data in step S7, and work instruction data is created according to the flow system of each department. When changing the flow system in the department, the flow system is changed in steps S8 and S9. The change of the sink system for each department is shown in FIG.
As shown in FIG. 5, the flow method corresponding to the department is performed by rewriting the flow method for each department in the storage unit that stores only the lot flow or the number flow. In this way, since the flow system can be changed according to each department, the flow system of the department can be changed regardless of the flow system of the work department before that, and efficient work can be performed. Further, depending on the type of sewn product, lot management was first required, but when it is no longer necessary thereafter, or vice versa, it becomes possible to manage sewing with flexibility.

In this way, when the flow system is determined for each department, the work instruction data is transmitted to the terminal device at each point according to the input order number and stored in the memory (step S1)
0, S11).

In the sewing department 70, a plurality of sewing machines (sewing machines) 75 and 76 are arranged, and parts processing and assembly processing are performed. Since the sewing comes into the line in the order of input for each sewing unit, the sewing parts that make up the sewing unit are processed into parts. In this case, Red No. 7, Red No. 9, and White No. 7 are processed. , White No. 9, Blue No. 7, and Blue No. 9 are machined in the order of a predetermined number of parts.
The parts are processed in the same order as the other sewing parts on other lines or the same line. In the assembly line, all the sewing parts having the same lot number are collected, and the basic parts are sewn with other parts to complete the sewing for one piece.

In each line, the worker, every time one work is completed, the counter switch 72 of the terminal 71 at that point.
Operate to input. The display of the counter (the number of counts in FIG. 9) is incremented every time the result is displayed.

When a sewn product is thus produced for each lot, that is, for each sewn unit, an actual result is generated. Therefore, the actual result is input and transmitted to the host side. On the host side, the actual result data is stored in the actual result storage area, and this is repeated until the work is completed (steps S12 to S17). FIG. 11 shows a state in which the record data is stored, and it can be understood that the record is stored together with the order number and the lot number. Since such data is generated for each part number for each point, the actual data is prepared for each point and created for each part number.

Subsequently, in the grouping section 80, buttons are attached, scraps adhering to the sewn product are removed, and buttonholes are overlaid. In the finishing section 90, finishing is performed by ironing and pressing. In the shipping department 100, the finished sewn products are vinyl-packed and shipped.

In the case where the department is a lot sink, the lot number is displayed on the display section 71a of the terminal 71,
In the case of sheet number passing, this part is set to 0, and the count number is incremented for each number of completed sheets.

Since the data as shown in FIG. 11 is stored for each point of each department, this data can be processed with respect to various parameters to create new data. An example thereof is shown in FIGS.

In this example, the results by lot are totaled into results by color and size. First, a point number is designated as in step R1 to determine which department is the entrance or exit data. As a result, the lot-based performance data as shown in FIG. 11 is read. Then, in step R2, this data is totaled for each color size. Subsequently, the product number is designated (step R3), similarly, the lot-based performance data of the product number is retrieved from the memory, if any, the color size is added, and this is repeated for all product numbers (step R3).
~ R5).

Next, in steps R6 and R7, the results are displayed as a list and printed as a list. This state is shown in FIG. 12, and the actual number of sheets by color size is created for the point number n and the product number x.

Although the above-mentioned example is processed into data for each color size, the data in FIG. 11 has various parameters, and it goes without saying that the data can be processed according to other parameters.

In the embodiment described above, for simplicity,
There are two sizes, No. 7 and No. 9, and the colors are red, white,
Although there are three types of blue, it goes without saying that the same procedure can be used even if there are more sizes or colors.

[0039]

As described above, according to the present invention, a predetermined number of sewn items having common sewing parameters are automatically assigned a lot number as one sewn unit, and the sewn unit for each lot is managed and passed to the line. A lot flow and a number flow that manages the sewn items according to the number of sewn items are provided regardless of the sewing parameters, and a configuration that allows switching between the lot flow and the number of item flow for each department has been adopted. It is possible to easily determine the sinking method, and to change the sinking method of the department regardless of the sinking method of the work department before that, which enables efficient work.
