grading Technology:
With great cutting hardware comes the need for great software. We continue to operate with Gerber/Lectra to ensure the data created from rough draft patterns, be seamlessly integrated to the physical product. Our graders have extensive knowledge in garment assembly which helps in the proper measurement application.
Updated Software:
We use Gerber software, currently at version 15, to ensure efficient and quality processes.
Commitment to Continuous Improvement:
We do our best to upgrade our grading software as soon as it becomes available, but like all software updates, we make sure to run tests with the developers before implementing them into our production.
About the service
In the fashion world, every creation starts with a vision. Our garment grading process takes a customer’s base size and meticulously scales the pattern up or down to the desired size range. After grading, we recommend sample cutting, allowing customers to verify the fit and measurements before production begins. This ensures that every garment not only embodies creativity but also fits perfectly.
What is
our grading process
Initial Assessment
We start by taking your base size and understanding your specific needs. This ensures we have all the necessary information for accurate grading.
Pattern Scaling
Using your base size, we apply precise measurements to scale the pattern pieces up or down according to the requested size range.
Sample Cutting Recommendation
After grading, we recommend proceeding with sample cutting to verify that the measurements are correct before moving on to production.
Thorough Review
Our team meticulously checks for any inconsistencies in the patterns, whether developed in-house or provided from external sources, ensuring quality and accurate process.
