The next milestone in the evolution of Stratasys 3DFashion technology has been launched with the TechStyle Fabric Alignment Station.
This solution is designed to meet the demands of high-end fashion designers, offering a unique workflow, enabling integration with embroidery, laser cutting, embossing, 2D silk printing and many other production methods.
By extending the capabilities of the J850 TechStyle full colour solution, designers can now enjoy unprecedented accuracy by aligning 2D printed patterns with intricate 3D designs within defined garment areas such as pockets and patches and 3D designs on specific sections of a garment created using stitching techniques like embroidery and knitting.
This unprecedented additive manufacturing fashion solution eliminates the trial-and-error traditionally associated with aligning designs on finished garments, reducing costs, improving production times and promoting more sustainable production by minimising material waste.
Zehavit Reisin, Senior Vice President of Consumer Solutions at Stratasys, said: “Today’s fashion consumers value personalisation, driving demand for customisable and bespoke products, empowering them to achieve a new level of design. This solution is transforming the creative process and production efficiency.”
