Lectra launches latest Diamino solution
Textile industry technology provider Lectra has introduced the newest version of its marker-making solution Diamino.
Available as DiaminoFashion, DiaminoFootwear, DiaminoFurniture, and DiaminoTechTex, it allows manufacturers to optimise markers and can also help to maximise fabric savings during production.
The first method, called interactive (or manual) markermaking, requires initial human intervention as the user prepares the markers on-screen for fabric pieces to be cut during production. The automatic method is entirely managed by the solution and can even be used overnight without an operator.
"With its new, reinforced algorithms that tight-pack all the pieces, this new version of DiaminoFashion Expert has enabled us to experience an incredible rate of efficiency with our materials," said Valérie Loiseau, Development office manager at JC Confection, a French womenswear company. "We've been seeing material savings of 3% to 4% compared to the previous version."
