It’s time for apparel companies to rethink how they do business, said Stan Przybylinski, vice president of research at consulting firm CIMdata, who spoke Tuesday at a Product Innovation Apparel seminar in New York titled “Enhancing Supply Chain Collaborative Practices.” “Yes, there are some practices that you do because they’re longstanding and are valuable but there are others that seem to be standard operating procedures and can potentially be replaced, and if you do that you can improve both your top and bottom line,” he said. And having product lifecycle management (PLM) technologies and strategies in place is one way to address supply chain and product development complexities. Apparel companies that harness technology to collaborate effectively across the supply chain—design, product, merchandising, sourcing and patterns, for example—have cut costs and sampling, improved time to market and boosted flexibility. But before diving into a new software system, Przybylinski advises companies to first determine what

This software integration will go live with a late-July release of the Fusion 360 application update.  “This is the first step in what we expect to be a successful combination of our tech-driven manufacturing services and Autodesk’s advanced Fusion 360 CAD software,” says Proto Labs’ VP and GM of the Americas, Rob Bodor. “We want to give product designers and engineers increasingly easy access to pricing and part analysis so they can quickly manufacture parts to test and iterate design during product development.” By clicking the Proto Labs logo within Fusion 360, users will be able to get an interactive quote with manufacturability analysis, for injection molding or CNC machining, within a few hours. The analysis highlights potential manufacturability issues allowing design

Gerber Technology’s integrated speed and accuracy of the Taurus II cutter with the enhanced workflow technology of CutWorks® 9 software can result in an up to 12 percent increase in hide cutting throughput for manufacturers. This means an increase of as much as one hide per hour with a high level of accuracy and expanded yield potential, said Tom Gordon, director of product management with Gerber Technology. Using CutWorks 9 with the Taurus II cutter results in a maximum hide yield, Gordon said. The Taurus II produces the maximum throughput with a single image hide capture, further reducing time and increasing accuracy. Taurus IIs computerized nesting engine is 250 times more powerful than previous offerings, mapping hides and flaws in seconds. The process is enhanced by CutWorks 9s flaw detection feature, which maps flaws much more closely for an expanded yield per hide. In addition, the CutWorks 9 nesting package, in combination

ZWCAD Design today released ZWCAD Mechanical 2015 SP1, an update to its manufacturing specialized product featuring with many exciting new enhancements. From newly added batch plot to optimized style configuration, more DIN standard parts to some fixed bugs, this new version will bring optimized user experience to your workflow. Designers always prefer to draw multiple drawings in model space instead of using layout spaces. Plotting one drawing a time largely hinders them from improving their work efficiency, however, with batch  plot integrated, multiple drawings can be plotted from the model space at one time. Simply define the border for every drawing in the model space and select the entities that need to be plotted, then plot all selected entities within all borders to each page at a time, they will be printed instantly. When standard varies in different countries and dealing with tons of mechanical parts is a necessity  in mechanical design.
