Optimizing Efficiency through the INA Hanger System
Since joining GMS Composite Knitting Industries Limited in September 2021, my focus has been on improving production efficiency through better industrial engineering practices. One of the key areas we addressed was the hanger system in our production lines. Initially, our process relied on a traditional manual system. By optimizing the INA hanger system and improving line balancing, we enhanced material flow and maximized workforce utilization. As a result, the helper percentage in our production lines was reduced from around 16–20% to nearly 15%, reflecting a significant improvement in operational efficiency. The hanger system plays a vital role in maintaining a balanced production line and controlling work in progress. Through continuous monitoring and a mindset focused on innovation and process improvement, we aim to sustain these efficiency gains and further strengthen our manufacturing performance.
About INA Intelligent Hanger System
INA Intelligent Technology (Zhejiang) Co., Ltd. has developed an advanced intelligent hanger system designed to transform garment manufacturing into a data-driven, highly efficient production process. The system uses overhead conveyors, digital controllers, and RFID-based tracking to automatically move garment pieces between sewing stations while collecting real-time production data. This enables factories to monitor operator efficiency, track work in progress, and balance production lines more accurately. By reducing manual handling and idle time, the system can improve productivity by 20–30%, reduce the need for helpers, and enhance operational transparency, thereby supporting smart factory development in the global apparel industry.
