Gerber Technology will take the opportunity to present its newest release of the YuniquePLM™ product lifecycle management system with enhanced integration with Adobe® Illustrator®, dynamic line creation capabilities, sourcing and compliance tracking, as well as powerful “what/if” scenarios that enable teams to determine if a product will meet profitability expectations before designers even sketch a concept or generate a single piece of artwork. Texprocess 2013 will also be the platform for the world premiere of Yunique 360 Interactive Sample Capture. Now, both brand owners and suppliers can capture a 360-degree view of a sample on a model or form and send these images, complete with annotation and mark ups, to colleagues and partners via YuniquePLM. Digital sample images eliminate barriers caused by time zones and divergent languages, minimize the number of sample submits and courier charges and enable organizations to reduce product development time and improve fit quality.
Also on display will be the AccuMark® pattern design including new functionality to digitize hard patterns using a standard digital camera.
Besides, Gerber will also present its popular pattern draping system, the Vstitcher™ 3D, which enables apparel companies to transform 2D patterns into 3D draped garments on true-to-life virtual models (avatars). The software reduces time to market, facilitates communication with colleagues and suppliers, and reduces costs associated with sample making.
