Gerber has announced the February 2020 release of their robust software platform, AccuMark, AccuMark 3D, AccuNest, and AccuPlan. The new release continues to revolutionise the industry by digitising the supply chain from 3D design right through production, making product development and production even faster, more efficient and sustainable.
Already applauded by customers, the new release makes developing production-ready garments quick and easy with powerful 2D-to-3D integration and increased digital printing capabilities. AccuMark February 2020 also streamlines production with tight integration between cut planning software and the customer’s ERP system. Whether the customer is creating customised, made-to-measure or mass-produced garments, AccuMark February 2020 accelerates time to market, improves fabric consumption, and dramatically cuts costs, according to Gerber.
The AccuMark February 2020 release will help exceed consumers’ expectations of speed, sustainability, and quality by decreasing lead time from 3 weeks to 48 hours while reducing material waste by as much as 40 per cent. The new release will empower on-demand manufacturing like never before with improved digital printing capabilities and true-to-life virtual samples, making ideas production ready 60 per cent faster than manual processes.
“After speaking with our customers, we found that they were spending millions of dollars and countless hours making thousands of samples per year. So for this release, we completely enhanced our 3D workflow so that our customers could validate their designs without spending valuable time and money making physical samples, for a truly streamlined and efficient workflow,” Melissa Rogers Senior Vice President and General Manager for software at Gerber said.
Brands, retailers, and manufacturers of all sizes will see major improvements in their production process as well with up to 25 per cent fabric savings thanks to the powerful duo of Gerber’s automated nesting solution, AccuNest, and powerful cut planning software, AccuPlan.
The newest addition to the AccuMark legacy offers enhanced 3D capabilities that will allow designers to edit directly in the 3D workspace, completely streamlining the design and development process. Users will be able to visualise their entire collection in multiple fabric options and colourways while validating style and fit, using the same model, without ever having to make a single physical sample
