The Apparel Export Promotion Council (AEPC) has done this study to understand the impact of COVID-19 on Indian Apparel industry. The study is based on:

1. Secondary survey on overall impact of COVID-19 crisis on India in perspective of Global Apparel Value Chain.
2. Primary survey on Impact on Revenue, Inventory, Wages and Government schemes.
3. Primary survey on Buyers and Order Position

For a University of applied sciences, cooperation with industrial companies forms a bridge for the transfer of scientific know-how – and one collaboration between Voith Turbo in Crailsheim, represented by Mr. Willi Zinnecker (Vice President Actuators and Governors), and the Institute for Fast Mechatronic Systems (IMS), headed by Prof. Jürgen Ulm at the Künzelsau Campus, deserves special mention. The partnership started 10 years ago has very quickly turned out to be a win-win situation for both sides. The university’s extensive expertise in the field of electromagnetism flowed into new Voith Turbo developments in the area of electromagnetic drive systems, such as the oil-free actuator EMA with safety features shown below, crowned by patents and research transfer prizes in 2012 and 2019. Thanks to these very successful R&D activities, high-tech actuators are assembled by a team of specialists in the Voith Turbo production hall in Crailsheim, followed by intensive tests. Then the actuators are shipped all over the world and installed in mission critical steam turbines for power plant & compressor applications at the customer’s premises. A remarkable cooperation arrangement that will hopefully last for many more years! #Voith #Career #VoithTurbo #Cooperation #University #Future

Looking into the Nature, hair has numerous functions such as to provide warmth, adhesion, locomotion, sensing, a sense of touch, as well as it’s well known aesthetic qualities. This work presents a computational method of 3D printing hair structures. It allows us to design and generate hair geometry at 50 micrometer resolution and assign various functionalities to the hair. The ability to fabricate customized hair structures enables us to create super fine surface texture; mechanical adhesion property; new passive actuators and touch sensors on a 3D printed artifact. We also present several applications to show how the 3D-printed hair can be used for designing everyday interactive objects.

Country’s first ever garments factory in prison was opened in Narayanganj on 27 December 2017. The initiative was undertaken to facilitate the prisoners to earn money using labour while serving jail term. Bangladesh Knitwear Manufacturers and Exporters Association (BKMEA) had been assigned the task to train around 300-400 prisoners to knit garments-wear. The garment factory was built on 5,000 square feet of area with the help of the district administration and the Department of Social Services. The facility has sewing and embroidery machines imported from abroad.
