Rational use of energy resources in the garment industry

To date, measures aimed at reducing the energy intensity of products of the clothing industry are mainly of a private nature and do not take into account all the factors of the production process. Although the formation of quality indicators is based on energy costs, however, they are studied, as a rule, in isolation from each other, which negatively affects the development of more efficient processes and equipment of sewing production. Meanwhile, studies in recent years, conducted in different countries, have shown that the final quality is largely determined by the amount of energy invested in the transformation of labor objects (deterministic, excessive, insufficient). Since the main part of energy is spent on the transformation of labor items, directly at the lower stage of the production system (equipment), the work aimed at reducing energy costs at this level in the context of the formation of quantitative and qualitative indicators of production becomes relevant. The paper presents a complex use of techniques to reduce material intensity and energy costs. The calculations of reduction of norm of time of processing of details of clothes and material expenses are made.
