  • Before and after wash shrinkage
  • Integration of art work and logos
  • Yield reports with costing
  • Adobe PDF plot format
  • Multiple sizes grading with automatic half size creation
  • Angle grading for curved contours
  • Block libraries with master grading
  • Automatic grading update with pattern changes
Unit2

Unit 2: MARKER MAKING

  • Manual or automatic marker making
  • Stripe and plaid matching (with image view)
  • Merge pattern pieces and marker for efficient result
  • Dynamic blocking and measuring functions
  • Call up additional pieces or complete sizes
  • Create and edit cut path for CNC cutters
  • Edit or alter patterns while making markers
  • Add buffers during marking at selected segments of patterns for quality cutting
Unit3

Unit 3: TAILOR EDITING

  • Import or key in body scanned measurements
  • Find closest size from standard size ranges
  • Automatically see differences between the customer and chosen size measurements
  • Generate XML file for trial done by customer
  • Maintaining history of a particular customer's pattern file
  • Create template for various fits allowances
Unit4

Unit 4: INDUSTRIAL EDITION

  • Create single Excel report for multiple markers
  • Generate weight and yield report
  • Send marker files to plotters and cutters
  • Generate PDF file of markers
  • Generate Excel report for weight, cost and time calculations
Unit5

Unit 5: DIGITAL SAMPLING AND VIRTUAL FIT

  • Concept and theory: role of digital sampling in reducing physical sample rounds, taught via
  • TAPE & free online video modules and TUKA3D's own tutorial channel, no license required for this portion
  • Importing a graded 2D pattern into a 3D visualizer: demonstrated on one institutional
  • TUKA3D single-seat license or trial license, faculty-led, batch rotation for hands-on time
  • Assigning virtual fabric properties (drape, weight, stretch, texture mapping): practiced individually on a free trial license of an alternative 3D garment simulation tool (Marvelous
  • Designer 30-day free trial, or CLO3D trial), scheduled so each student's practice window falls inside the trial period
  • Digital stitching and seam assignment on a virtual avatar: practiced on the same trial tool as above, concept is transferable across TUKA3D, Marvelous Designer, and CLO3D since all three use the same 2D-pattern-to-3D-avatar principle
  • Reviewing virtual fit on a standard fit model: identifying pull lines, excess ease, drag, and grain distortion
  • Recording fit comments directly on the virtual sample in place of a physical fit sample round
  • Exporting a virtual fit report and turntable/still images for buyer or merchandiser review, submitted as the graded deliverable regardless of which software produced it
  • One-day exposure visit to a local export house or CAD bureau already running a licensed
  • TUKA3D setup, in place of individual student licensing, tied to the existing Suggested Visits category
Course Objectives6 points
  • To develop proficiency in pattern-making software with advanced functionality and process engineering for accurate pattern building
  • To enable students to create bespoke grade rules and apply automatic grading across multiple sizes
  • To develop skill in marker nesting and layout optimization for every style conceived
  • To familiarize students with tailor editing and made-to-measure workflows using scanned or keyed-in customer measurements
  • To develop competence in generating industrial reports for costing, yield, and production planning
  • To introduce digital sampling and virtual fit review as a substitute for physical sample rounds ahead of buyer approval, delivered through a cost-viable mix of institutional and free-trial resources
Course Outcomes (COs)6 outcomes

After completion of the course student will be able to:

  1. •Be able to build and grade patterns digitally using standard measurement charts and cutter & specifications
  2. •Be able to create efficient markers, including stripe/plaid matching and CNC-ready cut paths
  3. •Be able to apply tailor editing functions to fit a pattern to individual customer measurements
  4. •Be able to generate industrial-standard reports for weight, yield, cost, and time from marker files
  5. •Be able to import a graded 2D pattern into a 3D visualizer, apply virtual fabric properties, and review fit on a virtual model, on whichever available platform (TUKA3D, Marvelous Designer, or CLO3D)
  6. •Be able to compare virtual sample turnaround against physical sample turnaround as a cost and time decision
