Computers in the Textiles Industry

What are the main advantages of using computers? More Efficient Faster: Reduces the time taken to complete tasks Cheaper: Decreases costs within industry Provide a simple means on presenting designs/work Clearer: Improves and clarifies Communication Duplicating: Reduces repetition

The 5 main examples of computers systems used in the Textile Industry: CAD: Computer Aided Design Development of designs, creating and grading patterns and lay planning. Computers are used for store design, lay planning and cutting, sewing and pressing. CAA: Computer Aided Administration CAM: Computer Aided Manufacture Technology ICT packages are used for marketing, sales order processing and monitoring stock levels. A system – computer based which speeds up sales transactions and keeps account on stock levels. CIM: Computer Integrated Manufacture EPOS: Electronic Point of Sale This ICT system is used at every stage of planning, designing and manufacturing.

e.g. Bebo, My Space and You Tube Other New Technology? Companies take advantage of other new technologies. Some examples are: Skype Instant Messaging Video Conferencing Interactive Design Technology Blogging Virtual Imaging Networking Sites e.g. Bebo, My Space and You Tube E-retail

How is ICT used? STAGE: PURPOSE: EXAMPLES: Research and Presenting Collecting and recording relevant facts Using digital imagery Internet/email Graphics Software Digital Camera Word Processing Software Video Conferencing Design Creating visual designs Developing a specification Creating a prototype Experimental work Scanner Digital Printer CAD Systems Manufacturing/Production Producing patterns Producing end garments Controlling machinery Costings Lay planning Digitisers / Digital Printers 3D body scanning equipment Computerised sewing, knitting and weaving ,machines EDI (Electronic Data Interchange) Distribution Stock control and dispatch systems Order processing Tagging (RFID) Word Processing / Databases Spreadsheets Stock/asset tracking software Sales Promoting the product e.g. Advertising Sales channels e.g. on TV, website/E-tailing E-Commerce Security Tagging EPOS software PDM Software

The Three Phases… There are three main phases to the creation of commercial textiles product. ICT is used in all of these phases: Research… topic using ICT software such as on line Specification… typing a garment specification Present… ideas using graphic packages, powerpoint presentations or using mood boards Stage 1: Pre-Production Model… fabric on a product using 2D mapping or 3D image draping system Develop… a series of designs using vector drawing graphics ICT software Design… fabrics using CAD package

The Three Phases… There are three main phases to the creation of commercial textiles product. ICT is used in all of these phases: Testing… on the product 3D image… can be generated via a flat 2D pattern and mapped on a computer =‘avatar’ Production is made Product is sent to … Production Line ( this could be a production plant abroad) Costings… are generated using PDM (Product Data Management) software and manufacturing specifications Stage 2: Production Phase Production Sample… is produced Fabrics are cut out accurately using …cutting tables PDM… These systems are used to track materials/components for manufacturing can begin Lay Plans… are produced with an ICT package. This will calculate the best way of laying pattern pieces on the fabric- minimising waste Product specification is used with specialist software for… creating patterns

On line retailing… selling products online The Three Phases… There are three main phases to the creation of commercial textiles product. ICT is used in all of these phases: Sales/Marketing… This involves a virtual design system, which shows how the product can be displayed on in-store systems With a computerised barcode system EPS a garment can be tracked at any retail outlet Stage 3: Post-Production When launching the product it can be viewed on the web and a virtual fashion show can be seen On line retailing… selling products online
