Analysis of factors affecting cutting scheme based on analytical hierarchy process

In order to determine the key factors affecting the cutting scheme,analytical hierarchy process(AHP) has been adopted.A systematic AHP model which contains 3-hierarchies with 5 types and 22 factors was established based on the analysis of factors affecting the cutting scheme in practical production.A questionnaire was designed about the importance of the affecting factors and sent to specialists in garment enterprises.And the recovered data were arranged into judgment matrixes whose consistency was examined.Weight analysis of the factors was conducted using AHP calculation rule,and the results showed that quantity of size,number of sample for reproduction,layers of fabric laying,number of maker,and fabric spreading length are the key factors affecting the cutting scheme.This study provides quantitative reference for preparing the cutting scheme.
