CAD/CAM for Apparel Industry and Fashion Design

Abstract

It is an established fact that CAD systems along with its tools are essential elements for garment manufacturing. Any task analysis in the process of textiles begins when a new project is proposed. When CADD is used there is no limit of solution for fashion and textile designers. CAD is used or pattern making, pattern grading and making marker. There is a classification of 3-D CAD system used in apparel industry. The task in the sample room like productivity, accuracy and cutting process become easier when CAD is used. With the introduction of fashion CAD lots of improvements and scopes are created with more styles and random changes in making new designs, number of collections, and generation of patterns with graded size patterns. In fashion designing, different colours can be picked up from the colour library. The fashion design CAD/CAM software can be broadly classified into a few categories. To understand the role of computer aided design in the industry it is first required to know what it is. Cad refers to a broad range of design program. Cad significantly refers not only to the design process but further more to the manufacturing, which is designed as being advanced.
