Recent Development in CAD Industry

Modern computer-aided designing software provides the possibility to avoid small operations and manual work, to raise precision, productivity and organize information flow. Computer Aided garment designing system excludes the time consuming manual preparation of patterns, creation of layouts and also relocation of written information. The computer systems execute every single process and the integration of all processes into one joint flow, for the organization of logistics and the mobility of work tasks. The computerization of different processes in the garment industry is necessary to reduce the costs of a product and to raise the competitiveness.

Computerized designing systems use software specifically designed for the development of industry specific objects, input and output of graphics, scanners and other remote devices. Computer systems allow making two-dimensional and three-dimensional product illustrations and visualizations. It is possible to create computer-aided garment patterns, gradations, and a virtual pattern. Such computer-aided operations significantly save time and costs necessary to design a product. The cost of a product can be calculated with the help of the product management systems of the company stored in a database.

Recently, a variety of CAD systems have been widely used in the field of fashion. The software system like Lectra gives a comparative concentration on the integration of CAD software. The system has adopted new strategies to expand its technology and provide a system of simulation for the entire textile industry from yarn and textile design; manufacture of virtual goods and to the ready-to-wear since 1998. It represents the direction of development of a new generation of textile and clothing in computer aided design. Assyst Bullmer system can simulate three-dimensional effect which can give the design structure and fabric. It also has more than 400 different kinds of databases for optional format-making, picturizing and modifying. It can make a format automatically and according to the actual size, it can change the size freely. The system also has intelligent database, which can make styles quick and efficient. Spanish Investronica system has made more effective efforts in the application of artificial intelligence and other technologies.
