"The expanded AccuMark family of products will increase throughput and reduce physical samples by as much as 50 percent, and boost productivity by as much as 10 percent. We've made communication and quality control more collaborative all along the development and production process," said Mary McFadden, Gerber's executive director, CAD Product Management. "In addition, it can cut product development time by two weeks."
AccuMark pattern design, marker making, grading and production planning software fully integrates the new AccuPlan and AccuMark 3D modules to increase productivity and accelerate time to market. It also coordinates and shares easily with YuniquePLM™.
AccuMark 10.1 closes the gap between production systems by streamlining workflows and supporting improved communication. It offers enhanced pattern design and development, marking, nesting, spread and cut planning. "AccuMark 10.1 accelerates collaboration and improves development time," explained McFadden. "Patternmakers can easily validate the accuracy of their patterns, and produce a wide range of styles for development. We have made great gains in reducing redundancies and improving integration from design to delivery."
AccuMark supports digital design, production workflows and collaboration through a comprehensive family of features:
Enhancements can be found throughout the AccuMark family of products. AccuMark users will find new smart patternmaking tools to improve pattern design productivity and color matching capabilities for fabric printing. Rule-based marker layouts increase marker throughput by using AccuNest on markers previously laid by hand. New DXF output options from AccuScan give customers more options for using photographs for pattern input.
"Throughout our product development process, we take into account the needs and experiences of our customers," said McFadden. "We understand their challenges and have created this family of integrated products that make going to market easier, more accurate and much more successful."
