CAD System for Automated Garment Pattern Construction and Grading
PDSTailorXQ
PDSTailorXQ
is unique among CAD systems for garment industry. The complete pattern design is based on construction
network database and is created from very simple input consisting of base body measures and several
parameters. All other measurements of the pattern are calculated automatically according included
mathematical model. All corrections could be made only by changing the parameters. Standard
incremental grading is replaced by automatic recalculation of each size with values from assortment
table. The original construction system was developed in cooperation with the Technical University
Liberec. Great emphasis on didactic qualities results from this cooperation, which predestinates
PDSTailorXQ
for utilizing in specialized education for garment industry.
PDSTailorXQ - Construction
PDSTailorXQ
was developed for modern operating systems Windows XP/Vista/Seven.
PDSTailorXQ
utilizes newest methods
and features from IT branch in synergy with technological knowledge of both developing team and
many software users.
PDSTailorXQ - Modification pieces
PDSTailorXQ
has been was proofed by long time experiences in garment industry of many countries. More
than 10 years after introducing first PDS-Tailor version to the market, it still remains unique
among noted CAD systems worldwide, by its concept of construction network database.
PDSTailorXQ - Grading
Among main original features of the
PDSTailorXQ
we can list database of construction networks of typical garment products and automated grading by repeated
construction according to specific body measurement. Thanks to this concept, the
PDSTailorXQ
becomes a very effective tool for clothing production designer and technologist.
Main features:
database of construction networks for all typical garment products:
casual and formal dresses
sport clothing
working and profession clothing
networks for special types of clothing could be prepared on demand (motorbike overalls, neoprene diving suits)
suitable for construction and grading in all assortments and categories: ladies, gentlemen, children
default data could be easily modified by requested body measures and individual parameters
automatic calculation of all other body measures to complete model pattern
automatic re-calculation of all dependent parts when editing any detail of the model
easy modeling, interactive pattern editing
automatic generation of curved lines
automatic grading to requested assortment
possibilities of individual grading modification
output formats allowing various devices (drawing or cutting plotter, NC cutter)
data export to the
NestMakerXQ
a module for efficient and exact nesting, marker creation from several models
The drawing plotter is a most common output device with
PDSTailorXQ.
Sophisticated software solution allows to utilize not only specialized garment plotters
(width 160-240 cm) but also much cheaper standard office A0 plotters (90 cm width).
What is of IT specialist interest:
entirely redesigned application kernel on MS Windows XP/Vista/Seven platform
efficient combination of user friendly features of operating system with ClassiCAD's typical technological approach
individual maintenance: widely configurable technological properties, personal settings of user interface
high performance on standard "office" computers, optimized memory and other system resources treatment
easygoing cooperation with peripherals
standard installation driven by install processor
easy operation, short training and running-in period
national localization of the interface and database
integrated context help and tooltips
Sample Videos
PDSTailorXQ sample video part I includes these following parts:
1. The choice of product, 2. Setting the parameters of the product, 3. Modeling
PDSTailorXQ sample video part II includes these following parts:
4. Creation of pieces, 5. Modification pieces
PDSTailorXQ sample video part III includes these following parts:
6. Grading, 7. Outputs
For better quality video playback, we recommend you set the video resolution of type 720 HD and full-screen mode.
NestMakerXQ
PDSTailorXQ
can be complemented with
NestMakerXQ
positioning module, which enables optimum positioning of
parts on the material used. This module is delivered with the system and is among the most elaborated
and effective programs of this kind. The output of this module can be markers drawn on a plotter, or even
a code for cutting device control (GERBER type).
