Evaluation Criteria: Learning Diary----- 40 Marks Viva---------- 10 Marks Presentation------ 20 Marks Report/Dissertation----- 30 marks Total -----100 marks
Learning Outcome: Flow process sequence and Technical details on machine particulars of spinning, weaving, knitting, dyeing, printing, finishing, etc sections. Particulars of raw material, intermediate products and final product, process details, product quality parameters. Particulars of the manufacturing environment. Human resource management. Productivity analysis for various processes. NOTE: The students are supposed to complete at least three of the above mentioned assignments working in atleast three sections. In case any student finds more than three sections available in the factory, the time allocated for carrying out the assignments in each section may be suitably adjusted to cover all the sections available. The Project deliverables/results should be quantified as far as possible. Weightage would be given to the facts and statistics during evaluation of the report
