Lilach Porges, the fashion designer and brand owner of Procode_Dress, has introduced a patent-pending robotic arm 3D-printing technique that combines pattern creation and fabric stitching with 3D printing to make ready-to-wear outfits.
Procode_Dress seeks to transform the fashion business by automating the creation of wearable collections using robot-printed clothing. By collaborating with sponsors such as ABB and New Bedford for Research and Robotics for Robotics and Xtellar for sustainable 3D printing materials, the company intends to bring the worlds of “science, engineering, and fashion together” for a better future.
Porges stated, “3D printing will open the door to a new universe of sustainable materials that we may not have considered previously. I have a background in architecture and engineering, and I’ve always liked coding, programming, and science.
“My goal is to merge technology and fashion using unconventional materials and software to create fashion for the future that empowers women.”
Porges’ brand is believed to revolve around creating novel technologies for 3D-printing clothes using robotic arms and investigating architectonic designs. The brand’s initial collection, titled “The Roller Coaster,” was designed using robotic arm 3D printing technology.
It was inspired by the forms and colours of a roller coaster, which were utilised to code the robot’s movement and decide the draperies of the cloth around the human body.
