With fabric, unlike sheet metal, distortion happens in both the x and y axis and it’s very difficult to predict the final 3D form from the 2D cut pieces. Digital Patterning can play a major role in the design and fabrication of any type of textile where the product is created from or covered in fabric.Next, he refined the 3D model with ReMake and then used Fusion 360 to prepare the model for production.Īfter that he moved to the pre-production stage and created perfect flat patterns in just a few minutes with ExactFlat Online software.
With very little time (and not a lot of money to spare) Hung started the process with ReCap Pro and converted human scan data to a 3D mesh model. Worse yet, presenting a badly designed and/or constructed costume at Comic-Con can be devastating to a young person’s ego.While the 3D design capture and creation tools are starting to address the requirements of these users a new generation of flattening and digital patterning tools are also needed to get the job done quickly and cost effectively.Traditional machine design experts find it difficult to impossible to take advantage of their current skills and tools when they need to design, validate performance and then produce products for textiles or fashion clients.The designer Hung Nguyen (lover of 60's comics) from SolidCAD Canada and his son used the Autodesk Product Design and Manufacturing Collection and integrated apps from ExactFlat and Pepakura to get the job done. In this article, we’ll explore a digital workflow to design and fabricate a custom-fit superhero suit for Comic-Con the largest (and most discriminating) assembly of pop-culture fans in the world.
