Easy, accurate pattern matching and piece identification Gerber Technology introduces three modules and a
par t identification system that are used to maximize the accuracy of fabric
matching, minimize bow, skew and repeat irregularities, and simplify
par t identification. Comprised of advanced software and an overhead projection
system, these are used after material is spread and before or after it is
cut, and are options to all GERBERcutter® Single-Ply systems.
Textile irregularities and flaws are common in most materials, and pose a par
ticular challenge to upholster y and apparel manufacturing, where matching is
critical. The pattern matching modules provide solutions to these common
problems.
Match Module — Using this module, you can perfectly align stripes, plaids,
florals, and five- star fabrics. Move the projected images of the par ts up,
down, left, right, or slightly rotated until the desired location is reached.
Match and cut almost simultaneously, or ”on the fly.”
MatchPro Module — This module may be added to the Match Module and provides the
ability to distor t par ts and cut them to match the bow and skew
inherent in the fabric.
ManualNest Module— You can move individual par ts around on the table or mix
par ts from several different jobs together, to create your own nests. Move par
ts to avoid flaws in the material or nest on fabric remnants or other
irregular-shaped goods.
Part Identification System — Identify cut pieces as they are removed from the
cutter. The overhead projector projects par t outline and annotation directly
onto the fabric, making it easy for the operator to identify par ts and place
them in the correct bins for assembly.
