SMV Calculator

Calculate Standard Minute Value for sewing operations

Basic Time (min)

Allowance Time (min)

How It Works

Calculate Standard Minute Value (SMV) — the standard time for completing a sewing operation.

Standard Minute Value (SMV) represents the time required to complete a sewing operation under normal working conditions. It is a cornerstone of Industrial Engineering in garment manufacturing, used for line balancing, operator performance measurement, and production target setting.

SMV is determined through time studies, motion analysis, and predetermined time systems. The basic time is the actual time to perform the operation, and allowance time accounts for personal needs, fatigue, and delays. Typical allowances range from 10-25% of basic time. SMV is continuously reviewed and updated as operators improve and processes change.
