Hi Volcano
The sentence does need some repair, but since I'm really not sure exactly what you're trying to say, it's difficult to tell you how the sentence can be repaired.
Can you explain what you mean in a couple of shorter sentences?
One thing is definite, though: You need to have a space after each comma. . _________________ "Nearly all men can stand adversity, but if you want to test a man's character, give him power." ~ Abraham Lincoln |

I wonder if using "are" twice here "The products which are completed in this way,are ironed passing quality control" is correct and,
"They are brought ready for forwarding by packing" does make sense ? Is there verb like "bring something to be ready" ? |

Hi Volcano,
You would help us greatly if you could answer the following questions:
1) What products are you talking about? 2) How are they manufactured? 3) How are they packaged? 4) What do you mean by "bring something to be ready"? Where did you hear or learn this phrase?
Many thanks, Torsten

I don't think that we need to answer these 4 question.I just want to know if the sentences are right as to grammar.Here I changed the sentences
"The clothes which are come from factory, are ironed passing quality control in workshop" Using "are" twice is right here ?
"Then, they are made ready for forwarding by packing" Should I use "by" here ? |

The clothes that come from the factory are ironed... and here I don't understand what comes next. It really WOULD be helpful to answer the questions so we can help you form the sentence correctly.
Is "packing" a department? |

What about this: 'The clothes that arrive from the factory are ironed, checked by quality control and then packaged to be shipped.' (You can't use the verb combination 'are come'.)

| But here 'The clothes that arrive from the factory' you didn't use passive tense |

You probably mean the "passive voice". You might want to take a look at the following sentences and decide whether they are in passive or active voice:
The product sells for about $ 95. The sign reads "Don't Walk". My new car drives like a dream.
