3. INTRODUCTION
What is textile Design ???
 A process of creating design for woven ,knitted or printed fiber
 It involved production of those designs, which are used
sometimes repetitively, in clothing and interior decorating items.

5. CAD SOFTWARE USED IN TEXTILE INDUSTRY
 Tuka CAD
Fully automated marker making software for add
on tukamarker
It saves 3 to 15 % fabric cost per marker [1]

9. CAD CAM IN TEXTILE MACHINERY
 Automatic spreading machine
TUKA spreading machine having automatic sharpening knife and raw edges of fabric and
having photo Electric Guides which is used to maintain uniform tension in the fabric
Advantages of spreading machine
Superimpose layers of fabric
Smooth ,tension free surface
Accurate ,efficient cutting

10. CAD CAM IN TEXTILE MACHINERY
Difference between Automatic Spreading machine
And manual
MANUAL
Speed depends on operator
Used by: small firms;
Big firms for small orders
Low productivity
Slower spreading
AUTOMATIC
Can spread 100-150 yards per
minute
Preferred by all firms which
can afford it
High productivity
Faster spreading

12. ADVANTAGES
 Reduce lead time and increase productivity
Two unit of garment industry that is C and M. C unit produces 15,856 pieces per day by using CAD
CAM while M unit produces manually 4,013 pieces per day .
So, the observation results show that cad cam system nearly 10 time faster than manual system.
 Reduction of wastage
Mathematical algorithms built in CAD system
The observation results show10 % fabric saving by using CAD CAM
 Raw edges of fabric do not fray out
