TUKAcad Professional Edition Released

Tukatech announced the completion of the next release of TUKAcad, the company’s flagship pattern making, grading and marker making solution.

The Professional Edition boasts several important features focused on making the entire production cycle “digital”. For instance, All pattern and marker files can be managed by a ‘non- CAD’ user via Windows Explorer. All files contain summary information in the thumbnail view. Multiple files can be plotted, updated and converted to different formats, and pattern cards can be generated through “batch processing”, which does not require the program to be opened or any special software to be used.

TUKAcad is now fully integrated with e-fit Simulator by TUKA, Tukatech’s 3D virtual sample-making program. TUKAcad comes pre-loaded with libraries of graded 3D basic block patterns for women, men, and children with different body types. The styles have been pre-stitched and pre-draped in cotton muslin fabric and are ready for modification in CAD with live updates to e-fit.

TUKAcad is available in three different versions: a very low-cost Learning Edition for students and schools, an affordable Enterprise Edition for small businesses and freelancers, and the full-featured Professional Edition. Rental of the software is also available.

Other powerful new features include:

o Half-Size Grading

o Proportional Shrinkage

o Point Movement Enhancements

o Auto-Guidelines

o … and dozens of other tools.
