Abstract
Future automation and robotisation of apparel manufacturing processes will undoubtedly require that the machines and systems are selected based on the specific properties of the fabric being processed. Thus it is essential to develop and use objective evaluation methods for producing fabric compatibility data which are necessary for control of material handling, sewing and other processes involved in the conversion of fabrics into garments. The qualitative and quantitative analyses of relationships between properties of apparel fabrics and garment making‐up processes are focused on. Studies of mechanical properties of fabrics such as extension, shear and bending and their relationship to objective tailorability determinations constitute the main part of this research work
