Does your manufacturing company have control over fabric yield? Although not always monitored, this information has a major impact on costs, as waste <\/a> is one of the main problems within the textile industry and knowing the yield prevents this waste from occurring.<\/p>\n

By knowing data on fabric yields, it is possible to devise strategies that allow better use and obtain a more profitable return on production. Do you want to understand more about the topic and discover how to calculate fabric yield? Check out the article below!<\/p>\n

What is the yield of fabrics and knitwear?<\/h2>\n

The yield of fabrics and knitwear is information expressed through the assessment of the quantity of fabrics that can be transformed into pieces. It makes it possible to calculate costs in a way that, when taking other values \u200b\u200binto consideration, it is possible to obtain exactly what value is used to produce each part.<\/p>\n

How to calculate the yield of fabrics and knits?<\/h2>\n

The first step in carrying out the calculation is to identify the characteristics of the fabrics that will be used. This information helps guide important decisions, even when choosing the thread and needle used in sewing.<\/p>\n

The weight is one of the most important pieces of information and is usually indicated on the material label. If not, it can be calculated using the formula for the relationship between the weight of the fabric and the square meter.<\/p>\n

Using weight, it will be possible to classify the fabric as light, medium or heavy, see the table below:<\/p>\n

With this information in hand, it will be possible to calculate the linear and technical yield. Check out more about how and why to do this below.<\/p>\n

Linear Yield<\/h3>\n

Linear yield (RL) is the yield per m\u00b2 of fabric in each linear meter and considers the width of the fabric. It is calculated with the following formula:<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

RL = 1 x 1000<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

total width x weight<\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

It is worth mentioning that, if the fabric is tubular, you need to multiply the total width by 2.<\/p>\n

Technical performance<\/h3>\n

Technical yield is information about the area available in each kilogram of fabric and is calculated using the formula:<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

RT = 1 x 1000
