Next Generation of 3D Solutions from Tukatech

Tukatech’s virtual sample-making software, TUKA3D, is a solution catered to the fit-conscious fashion product developers. “It’s important for a 3D system to help designers use their creativity with design, embellishments, style lines to make a unique looking product but nothing sells unless it fits,” comments Ram Sareen, Founder and CEO of Tukatech. “Brands and retailers who have begun implementing 3D have been stuck using it only in the design stage; they can’t use it for fitting, which ends up wasting time and resources, because they still need to see the fit samples in real life.”

What makes Tukatech’s TUKA3D application unique is the built-in motion simulation, which allows for the garment to be worn by the virtual fit model while they perform various movements such as bending, jumping, flexing, etc. These movements are customized by Tukatech as part of their implementation package. “We include custom virtual models and motions because it’s really the only way to use a 3D system for fit analysis. If you’re not analyzing fit with real-time motion simulation, then you’re not getting the most out of your 3D system,” adds Sareen.

To develop fit, one must have the digital fit model that is a true replica of not just the measurements, but also the live model’s shape and posture. This replication plays a major role to correctly evaluate the drape and fit of a product. With over 650 fit model replicas of brands and retailers, each TUKA3D user is empowered to make a great fitting garment virtually. With the retail sector shifting to a consumerdriven market, agility is the name of the game for brands and vendors. Brand loyalists expect a consistent fit from the brand each time a product is purchased. “Hanger appeal can only go so far. If a garment does not fit well, the ‘look’ will not be there when the consumer wears it,” explains Chris Walia, Tukatech’s VP of Sales & Marketing.

“TUKA3D is built on the most powerful 3D CAD platform developed by Autodesk, 3D Studio Max. This platform enables our users to not only eliminate physical sample-making, but also to make powerful presentations to buyers or even endconsumers,” says Savannah Crawford, the Chief Collaborator at Tukatech. “At the PI Apparel conference in Berlin, we will be showcasing these 3D systems specifically from a fit development and collaboration perspective,” she added.

Other systems in Tukatech’s product development suite include TUKAcloud, the web-based digital sample room, and TUKA3D Designer Edition, the new assetbased design room. Tukatech is the garment and apparel industry’s leading provider of fashion design software and technology solutions. Founded in 1995 by garmentindustry veteran Ram Sareen, Tukatech offers award-winning 2D pattern making, grading, and marker making software, automated marker making software, 3D sample making/virtual prototyping software, as well as garment plotters, and automatic spreaders and cutters for production.

Enterprise material management solutions by Threadsol

The world has transformed, trades have advanced. With the boom of the new era, apparel business all over the world has witnessed majestic shifts. To manage this change, apparel manufacturers need to accelerate their operations and reevaluate the legacy of manufacturing practices. The dynamic technologies being introduced each day is a sign of constant development. ThreadSol – the pioneer in enterprise material management for the sewn products industry- takes pride in constantly challenging the present and being part of such a revolution. ThreadSol’s outlook is to introduce technologically driven products to drive manufacturing by targeting material cost and differentiate from the extremely competitive environment.

With its innovative solutions- intelloBuy, intelloCut, and intello3C, ThreadSol offers an entire range of enterprise material management solutions, which can help apparel manufacturers and brands to boost their topline and bottom-line, in an industry that is heavily dependent upon economic priorities.

intelloCut is a material planning and optimization solution for the sewn products industry. The flagship solution of ThreadSol has been successfully deployed in 150+ factories worldwide, which plan 1.5 bn pieces per year.

With the help of its advanced algorithms, IntelloCut gives the most optimized cutplan and lay plan, in just one click. The cloud computing structure helps to access the solution from any point. It also offers a feedback system which works like GPS: Any variations on floor and the plan can be changed with a single refresh button. With over 150 features, intelloCut is a product ahead of its time and truly defines the new age technology.

In a constant effort to improve, ThreadSol has introduced intelloGreen: A tablet application, which replaces on-floor printed lay slips. The application is based on cloud computing and takes data from intelloCut, transforming business from traditional to environment friendly.

The advanced reporting structure of IntelloCut provides an edge to the manufacturers to get complete control over factory ’s practices through IntelloMobile: World’s first fabric utilization reporting app. IntelloMobile provides 100 per cent real-time traceability of fabric, with all reports on mobile phone. intelloBuy is a material estimation solution for the sewn products industry. It is the second product by ThreadSol, taking the enterprise material management model of the company to the next level.

IntelloBuy gives accurate buying consumption for a particular style which saves millions of dollars of material cost at the buying stage, every day, for manufacturers worldwide. IntelloBuy accesses factory historical database and allows the user to add exact wastage from factory floor to generate the most accurate fabric requirement. This can save up to 10 per cent fabric cost, ultimately boosting profit. Through the advanced reporting offered by intelloBuy, one can get details of the consumption calculation for different style/ order, vendor details for width/ shrinkage, factory process loss, buyer’s details of size-wise order break-up etc.

intello3C is an AI based cost negotiation platform. Intello3C aims to reduce sourcing cost and costing lead time for apparel brands. The current market scenario is very challenging. The lead time and retail prices are constantly decreasing whereas the cost of sourcing continues to increase.

Currently vendor cost negotiations are based on merchant experience. There is little focus on scientifically arrived accurate internal cost benchmarks for various cost components like fabric, CM, trims etc. for each style that is costed. This inflates the sourcing cost. Moreover, most vendor cost negotiations are carried out over email and excel that is time consuming and adds to the ever shrinking lead time.

With fast fashion, the challenges with vendor cost negotiations are going to multiply. This is already resulting in suboptimal costing. Intello3C uses advance technology like Artificial Intelligence, Big Data, Mobility and Agile Analytics to solve this problem. Intello3C creates scientific and fact based benchmarks for all the cost components.

intello3C uses AI that can automatically negotiate the best cost with the vendors without needing any manual inputs from the merchant teams. intello3C results in 3- 5 per cent decrease in sourcing cost and 30 per cent decrease in costing lead time.

ThreadSol solutions- intelloCut and intelloBuy, currently used by manufacturers in India, Sri Lanka, Bangladesh, Pakistan, Vietnam, Thailand, Indonesia, China, Philippines, Cambodia, Jordon and Turkey, have already set standards amongst Sewn Products’ automation solutions worldwide. The revolutionary solutions are presently benefiting more than 150 apparel factories like Hirdaramani, Luenthai, MAS, PtDaese, Raymond, Pacific Jeans, Omegaline etc., helping them save up to 10 per cent fabric cost.

Balanced-Coil Needle Detector by York Technology Ltd

“When it comes to detecting broken needle and other metal contamination in sewn product YORK® Technology continues to push the boundaries of performance. Ever since the concepts were pioneered in 1995 by the current founders of the Company, the technology based on “VLF* Electro-magnetic Balanced-Coil Bridge” in conjunction with “Active Phase Detection” techniques continue to deliver the most robust solution to detecting needle fragments buried inside garments that may have other metal components such as zips attached.

Since the electro-magnetic coils encircle the detection tunnel 360°, there are no half-measures or one-sidedness to this unique structure – the detector conducts a 100 per cent scan in a single pass at full sensitivity on each passing garment pack. No need to pass the garment twice or through two magnet type machines, nor to flip it and turn it in between two detectors. This makes double head magnet detectors redundant and the 9-point calibration check unnecessary.

Coupled with the inherent immunity from interference generated by sewing machine magnetic clutches and other electrically noisy equipment in the vicinity, a balanced-coil needle detector offers the most fit-for-purpose solution to meeting the Buyer’s compliance, in-house due-diligence practice, Brand Protection and Consumer Safety challenges all in one package.

The Company R&D Centre located in UK has recently added to the ND product range, extending it to 6 variants – tunnel heights from 105mm to 305mm in increments of 50mm with two tunnel widths at 550mm and 650mm are now available. This has broken new ground for achieving industry standard detection sensitivities** in larger individual products that have not been possible before.

All machines come complete with conveyor speed control, quick-release belt mechanism, reversing function, production data recording, report downloading via USB port, light stack and a colour touch screen. A foot pedal accessory is being tested as we speak, and there are many other novel value enhancing features in the pipeline to come.

The international brand retailers who know about the design advantages of Balanced Coil machines prefer it!

* VLF – Very Low Frequency.

** Sensitivity figures given in ‘free space’, subject to environmental and product effects beyond the control of the manufacturer.”

Water is over, air is the future with Jeanologia

e-Flow technology is the sustainable textile solution to transfer chemicals onto garments made of any fabric. Conventionally water is used as the carrier and, at the end of every cycle that water, still brimming with chemical products, goes to waste. Jeanologia’s disruptive solution has been to create a new system in which air from the atmosphere is transformed into nanobubbles where water and just the right quantity of chemical products naturally distribute themselves forming the nanobubble skin. They become the carriers of the chemical products and transmit them homogeneously onto the garment. e-Flow technology can accomplish a considerable number of finishing effects with the highest quality, a minimal amount of water and zero discharge. This is why e-Flow technology is the only one certified as ecological by an independent laboratory.

E-Flow

e-Flow is the perfect fit for every industrial washing machine. It can be connected to Jeanologia´s Contact Box or your own washing machines and its processes can be applied to denim and other fabrics like knits. Among the many finishing effects are softening, tinting flow, 3D effects with resins, stone flow and random flow. You will be able to optimize the resources needed to give your garments the properties you wish, saving water and chemical products while you also shorten the process in time and steps.

E-Flow Lab

e-Flow Lab has been developed for testing and sampling. It functions just like the production machines but at a smaller scale and will enable you to experiment with all the finishing effects that can be accomplished in industrial conditions. A perfect reproducibility from lab to bulk is granted since the recipes can be transferred from one to the other ensuring the results are the same.

E-Flow Mix

e-Flow Mix allows you to expand the possibilities of your processes by having two separate tanks that can be filled with different chemicals that could never feature together in the same wash by conventional processes, releasing them at the precise moment to get the perfect interaction and grant the desired results. This way, you will save both resources and time.
