FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Lectra releases DiaminoFashion V6R2
New release expands the possibilities of automated marker making
Paris, July 7, 2015 - Lectra, the world leader in integrated technology
solutions dedicated to industries using soft materials-fabrics, leather,
technical textiles and composite materials-is pleased to announce the release of
DiaminoFashion V6R2, the latest version of its marker-making solution. This new
release expands the scope of its automated marker-making capability, producing
better results and bigger savings in the cutting room.
Fashion companies and apparel manufacturers today are operating in a marketplace
that has been transformed by fast fashion, moving at a pace that makes it
difficult to remain both profitable and competitive. "The industry norm has
moved from two big collections a year to a steady stream of low-quantity orders
in a variety of styles, sizes and colors. This complexity has put enormous
pressure on businesses, who need to find new ways to improve productivity and
cut costs," says Céline Choussy Bedouet, Chief Marketing Officer, Lectra.
"Because fabric makes up such a large portion of clothing's cost price, an
efficient marker-making process that optimizes material usage can be a real
competitive advantage." she explains.
Part of Lectra's fashion and apparel offer, DiaminoFashion helps streamline the
development process and keep production costs down without sacrificing product
quality, forming an integral part of a lean process from product development to
cutting room. With DiaminoFashion, companies can plan strategically to ensure
they get the most out of every last inch of fabric-sometimes before even a
single physical prototype is created.
This latest version brings manufacturers one step closer to fully automated
marker making with new added controls that make it possible to take fabric flaws
and quality issues into account automatically. "With DiaminoFashion V6R2, we can
now stipulate that key pattern pieces need to be placed next to each other
during automated processing, whereas before, we had to lay this type of marker
by hand. Our marker-making time has been cut in half and with the additional
improvements in efficiency, we have also been able to reduce our fabric waste by
up to 1%," notes Amir Pradhan, Managing Director of Pradhan Mercantile, a
manufacturer of quality ready-made apparel (India).
The expanded automated capability means that manufacturers are able to process
even more markers quickly, efficiently and with less fabric waste: a surefire
recipe for a better-quality product at the lowest possible price. Manufacturers
under pressure to meet tight deadlines can also keep up with peaks in activity
by using DiaminoFashion's automated processing feature to take advantage of off-
hours. This latest version boasts enhanced processing power that can batch
process marker lists faster than before, overnight or while other tasks are
being performed during the day, for a double dose of productivity. In addition,
it can be launched directly from Lectra's cutting-room optimization solution
Optiplan(®), for a streamlined process that saves companies both time and
fabric.
DiaminoFashion V6R2 allows companies to accurately predict how much a given
product will cost to produce ahead of time, for more informed decision making.
If an item threatens to go over budget, they can suggest changes that will
improve fabric yield and save on costs without compromising product quality or
the designer's vision. The solution's integrated technology also connects
design, development and production teams through seamless data sharing between
Lectra's different design, development and cutting-room solutions. Tasks are no
longer needlessly duplicated, communication is improved across departments and
the entire workflow is streamlined, shortening the development cycle and getting
merchandise to stores in time to capitalize on market trends.
