Design assyst

Eliminate sample production with this comprehensive and user friendly graphics software package, developed for the clothing industry. Produce storyboards and colour ways, using R.G.B and /or Pantone© colours.

Create and modify fabric designs and visualise the results using the latest draping techniques. Include fabric effects and fills to show accurate and informative specification drawings and illustrations.

Available as a plug-in to Photoshop™

The knitting and weaving modules enable knits and plaids to be created and realistically displayed -
trouser patternCad.assyst

Cad.assyst is an easy to use programme enabling the user to create or modify patterns quickly and accurately.

Patterns can be entered onto the system by digitisation of existing styles or receive them by importation from other software or draft directly on the screen.

Construction and measurements can be checked accurately and modified where required.

Seams added change automatically with pattern amendments and added to split pieces.

The grading functions can be used to create a size range of your choice.

Create ratings or markers to get maximum utilisation of your material.

Nesting can be directly on screen, by automatic placement or automarker.com

Smart pattern automates regularly performed tasks to standardize and de-skill operations such as facing and lining creation etc.

vidyaVidya

Takes your Cad patterns, assembles them and tries them on a virtual body.

See how your garment fits in real time, make pattern adjustments and see the effect immediately, see where the material is under tension as the body moves, sits down, turns etc.

As well as dramatically reducing pattern development time, vidya can also be used to create and view made to measure garments.

The made to measure programme enables a reduced timescale from customer order to delivery via an easy, user friendly interface, entering client measurements to produce accurate patterns tailored to the individual’s requirements.

The skills of the tailor/ pattern maker are harnessed in the assyst software to enable a consistent standard of amended patterns.

Customer measurements for made to measure production are easily achieved using data from body scanners.

Software to program the machines of the Gemini, Libra and Aries range.

Designed since the beginning under Windows environment and therefore totally PC compatible, this software stands since long time as a benchmark in the sector. The simplicity in the creation and use of its logic symbols really makes every user independent in the creation of his own knitting programs.

The program offers a very important base library that is being constantly updated and enlarged and that can be freely customized by the user. .

Moreover, the program analyses the pattern feasibility and displays a simulation of the knitting process, thus really helping the user to understand the stitch structures formation. .

To program intarsia patterns, an intarsia subroutine analyses and optimizes the simultaneous movements of the 32 available yarn-carriers and consequently generates the knitting program to be down loaded to the machine. .

With a few instructions, this Model version allows from a BMP format graphic design to automatically create the whole program while optimizing the production time.The left end side of the displayed window shows the original graphic pattern while the right one shows the automatically generated program. .

Despite the "full automatic" option, the user can always make changes at each level. For instance, he can directly select the yarn-carriers in a part or in the whole of the program. Or, he may also decide which knitting symbol will be selected or even change the sequence to let the yarn-carriers in and out of the intarsia areas. The final result will be in any case a file that can be read, changed or stored in the Model environment.

With the last version 7.22 , Model presents various news, such as a navigator, the possibility to establish for each row of knitting parameters for carriage speed, take-down speed, stitch.

Ottimo-Perfect Cut is a cutting optimization software for single blade and angular beam saws with several features such as: materials archive management, pieces archive management, single-job and multi-job (cutting list with pieces of several materials) optimization, expected machining time and costs computation, machine code generation, production reports, panels labeling, 3D simulation.
Ottimo-Perfect Cut is installed in a PC with Windows® O.S. in the factory or in the office, can be connected with an Ethernet network with the administration software and with the Panel saw software interface.
Ottimo-Perfect Cut allows to obtain an optimized sequence of cutting pattern starting from a cutting list, a material list and a machine configuration. By modify the configuration parameters you can obtain the solution as needed, with minimum waste or minimum machining time. Complete production reports are available. Optimized programs can be exported easily to the panel saw. Moreover the optimizer shows report with estimated times and costs and output customized labels for obtained pieces and off-cuts.
* Materials Database (up to 3.000 different sheets)
* Sheets classification for material type
* Grain and trims information for each type of material
* Automatic used sheets unloading and off-cuts recycle
* Pieces Database (up to 10.000 different pieces)
* Simple job programming to optimize cutting lists with panels of the same material.
* Standard parameters can be customized for each job in order to obtain the best result.
* Several sheets and off-cuts formats can be selected to cut pieces
* Production data, waste and machining time are showed to check immediately for result
* Automatic filling of cutting patterns with by using a filling list.
* Report with optimization general statistics (linear meters, surfaces area, volumes, waste, etc...)
* Materials, panels and strips report
* Graphical lay-outs of cutting patterns with pieces and waste dimensioning
* All reports can be saved as PDF files
* The manual editor allows to insert, delete, move and rotate pieces; to insert, delete and move head-cuts
* Details are showed for each selected panel or waste in the pattern.
* The pieces can be inserted from the job list, from the piece archive or as a new piece
* Statistics of the modified pattern are automatically updated
* The multi-job programming allows to optimize cutting lists (up to 10.000 lines of pieces) with panels of several materials.
