Laser Tailored Garment Technology

With the development of the times, computer technology is increasingly used in all walks of life, clothing as a traditional labor-intensive industry is also accelerating the pace of technological innovation to adapt to increasingly fierce international competition. Nowadays, clothing CAD technology is gradually adopted by more and more enterprises, and achieved good results. Supporting computer laser pointer cutting bed has also begun to gradually for the strength of the promising enterprises. Have you heard of laser tailoring techniques? This new technology, which looks fine like paper cutting, is leading the fashion industry. Laser cut appeared originally in the field of high fashion, but with its mature technology and low cost, so now like Topshop and ASOS fast fashion brands have begun to launch laser cut clothing.

First it is necessary to understand what is laser tailoring. As the name suggests, is the use of laser cutting laser cutting all kinds of clothing materials, and compared with the traditional method of cutting, laser cut quite accurate and smooth and clean, but also prevent wear, cut out of the clothing is full of modern sense. In addition, due to the characteristics of the laser, laser cutting and no material restrictions, whether it is silk, nylon, feathers, chloroprene rubber, cotton or poly fiber will be nothing difficult. In addition, laser tailoring does not cause any pressure on the garment, so there is no need to worry about unnecessary traces left in the cut, this advantage is particularly suitable for silk and lace. The Marc Jacobs, Georgina Chapman, Keren Craig and other fashion designers as early as around 2011 on the use of green laser pointer tailoring to create a lot of very luxurious fashion classic.

There are three kinds of laser generators for laser cutting: carbon dioxide laser, neodymium (Nd) laser and neodymium yttrium aluminum garnet (Nd-YAG) laser. In most cases CO2 laser is the preferred method for tailoring cloth, and the whole tailoring includes three processes: melting, burning and gasification. In order to achieve precise laser cutting, through a tube like device for traveling, and then after a few mirrors, finally reach a focus lens, aiming at the choice of materials for cutting, and laser intensity can be adjusted according to the selection of different materials. It is worth mentioning that, due to the different nature of the three lasers, so they apply to different tailoring tasks. Carbon dioxide laser produced by infrared laser, easily absorbed by organic matter, it is very suitable for processing leather fabrics. On the other hand, Nd and Nd-YAG due to the high power laser pointer engraving and cutting metal, it is their forte.

In terms of price, laser tailoring is no longer synonymous with Haute couture. Now a laser trim vest Topshop less than $100, while Forever 21 feather material laser trim tops also $30. To know that this is a few years ago did not dare to think, I believe that soon after the laser tailoring clothing will become one hand fashion consumer goods.

The application of computer laser cutting bed makes enterprises no longer holding a calculator to calculate the number of fabric waste, or because of the delay of the construction period, increase the number of cost, can happily accounting saves a few percent of the material, saves the labor consumption of a few percent. At the same time, due to the completion of the project ahead of schedule, the production line can calmly face another batch of orders, thereby enhancing the advantages in the competition. So, in the next few years, computer burning laser pointer cutting bed will be like clothing CAD technology, clothing enterprises as a new round of production technology innovation weapon.
