Training Programme in CAD for Garments

Intoduction Pattern design engineering is a niche element in the apparel design and production. Conventional, manual methods of pattern designing and grading requires skilled personal and time consuming. Use of computer aided design (CAD) systems have rendered much of the above exercises simple and precise. Alterations/modifications, repeated routine operations at the touch of the key, efficient and interactive marker and costing layout, plotting and cutting of the graded patterns are some of the salient features of the CAD systems for apparel design. The other significant advantages are Material optimisation Lead time minimisation Enhanced storage and quick retrieval Production planning Costing analysis The need for the trained manpower in CAD applications for apparel design & production is ever increasing and CLAD at CLRI offers specialised programmes in CAD applications in apparel design and Grading.
