Product Functions

	PDS - Pattern Design System System allows to create new patterns or change the existing ones in extremely fast way by several, highly effective methods, and all made directly in the computer without use of today not effective, not mistake-free,, manual & paper methods. Advanced tools make easy creation & modeling of any lines & figures, reducing to minimum the number of points defining pattern contour & shape. Advanced designer can create patterns base on construction grids. Darts, folds, pleats, notches, corner shapes, seam allowances, symmetry, snapping cut & join, single & multiply copying, measuring, checking… these & many other functions make InvenTex a one so much up-to-date CAD/CAM garment & fashion dedicated software in the market. Model & pattern properties components can have any photos or other type files (doc, pdf, etc.) attached Advanced, in full parametrized operations such as folding, cutting, pleats & darts formation are adopted Dynamic measurement: press D, all lines length values display at once. Tools like protractor, circle & ruler are ready to help measure whatever we need. Any change is made, it results at once by immediate value update   On-line help assistance dynamically inform on the current action & advices on subsequent action to go Seam & contour lines are correlated - we can work on both. Each line change reacts adequately to the 2nd All operations are reversible by “Undo” or full-session “History of changes” function unique to C/S DB arch. Powerful “walk” function two simulate stitching of two or more pieces with fabric shrinkage parameters Use of OpenGL makes graphic operation & display smooth accelerated, fast, multi-window active &top-exact
	DIG - Digitizing System Digitizing is a process to transfer really existing cardboard patterns (templates) into a digital form recorded by a computer. Contour shape consisting of different outer & inner lines, different points and technological marks, have to be precisely determined & transfered from analog to digital form. Digitizing process usually utilizes digitizing tablets A3 to A0+ formats or is made via camera. Intelligent software allows to digitize patterns of a limited size range enabling this simple way to grade garment automatically within wide sizing range. DIG is a smart system with a unique Voice Assistant synthetizer module. Voice synthetizer guides through a whole process, without a need to look very often to the monitor, further saving time and supporting mistake-free working method. InvenTex has many & more today, what other only think to have. Sequence and free-of-sequence digitizing process order, with voice assistant module to guide as user wants Use tablet of any format for pieces digitizing, no matter how large pieces are. Even a piece larger than tablet working area, can be digitized part by part and in the end it will be joint automatically for a whole piece    To simplify & speed-up digitizing, sticker with predefined commands can be put on a tablet to use as touch-active menu. Sticker commands are user-defined. In addition to 16-but. cursor, sticker makes no-limit on commands assignment: set corner point, curve p., set notch, del. p., set line type, finish line, set piece name, etc.- all can be assigned to any cursor button or sticker menu (we can print assigned funct. names on sticker) Operator no need to watch monitor, as whole digitizing process can be done using cursor and/or sticker Grading rules can be assigned to any point & auto-calculated during digitizing of min. two sets of pieces of different sizes.
	PGS – Pattern Grading System InvenTex sophisticated grading system brings the most significant time savings, assuring the best available management over garment grading features. It operates with multi-dimensional grading tables (size variations). Table does not finish on 1 or 2 dimensions. According to particular need, we can define 3, 4 or even more dimensional grading tables. Example: three dimensional grading table could be for: perimeter, height and figure profile (A, B, C, D). For men it would be: waist, chest & figure profile, while for women it would be hip, chest (under breast) and figure profile as well. Above makes InvenTex the only system in today market fitting to all, unlimited, possible needs of high quality garment industry. Within minutes we can process & finish professional grading of the style in hundreds of sizes. With such grading capabilities we can always extract a size just fitting to any imaginable human figure & size. This is something quite unobtainable with manual processed grading. Time spent for InvenTex grading takes usually 10-20 minutes only and could be even 100 times less comparing to same job made manually (for huge sizes quantity). Time & money savings on grading process are incredible. InvenTex gives 5 main grading rule types: Δ X & Y, offset, percent to base size, notches & CP grading by entering absolute (differ. to base size) & relative (differ. to previous, adjacent size) values switching between absolute & relative grading anytime we want change (edition/copy) of grading values point by point or by multiply selection of points to change multiply change of grading values on selected points in one size or within different selected sizes dynamic visibility of actual line/segment dimensions with real-time update after any change of grade System allows to create new patterns or change the existing ones in extremely fast way by several, highly effective methods, and all made directly in the computer without use of today not effective, not mistake-free,, manual & paper methods. Advanced tools make easy creation & modeling of any lines & figures, reducing to minimum the number of points defining pattern contour & shape. Advanced designer can create patterns base on construction grids. Darts, folds, pleats, notches, corner shapes, seam allowances, symmetry, snapping cut & join, single & multiply copying, measuring, checking… these & many other functions make InvenTex a one so much up-to-date CAD/CAM garment & fashion dedicated software in the market.
	IMM – InvenTex Model Manager InvenTex module for information management. Structure is dedicated for fashion/garment processing, such as: groups of materials, measurement tables, models (styles), suit of models and history of changes. multi-dimensional grading tables with variations. Tables are not limited to 1 & 2 dimensions. To fit particular need, we can define 3, 4 or even more dimensional grading tables (ex. waist/hip, height, figure profile) standard models organization by catalog structure is enhanced by “categorization” mechanism similar to “key words” mechanism universally used in internet. InvenTex operates & manages garment production versions. “engagement” track of any model/piece in all stages of production: designing, prod. orders, markers, etc. History of changes: log book records all “sensitive” information change & all “sensitive” operations realized Relative Client/Server DataBase SQL technology guarantees that all people always work on the actual data
	MGS – Marker Generation System InvenTex sophisticated marker generation system gives a lot of markers planning methods and tools. Operating a system You start to save a lot of fabric on markers (savings reach 3-5% or more, depending on actual effectivity). System smoothly operates with checks, stripes and/or motif restrictions. Fabric utilization is continuously monitored on a screen. Optional state-of-the-art Intelligent Auto-Nesting module (IAN) brings usually the highest available fabric use effectiveness calculated always within 1-3 minutes only. Cutting room layout order can be master-optimized by use of intelligent InvenTex Cut Planner module. automatic marker actualization after any change made. Automatic marker guards/alerts on changes advance possibilities to edit piece shape directly at MGS module fully customizable user interface with use of ribbons (icons, toolbars, shortcuts, colors) fully customizable data export to printers, plotters & cutters fast interface with OpenGL technology, bumping lines with extremely high accuracy of bumping (10-9mm) unlimited pieces quantity, size of fabric and separate sections quantity (for fused pieces, spreading, etc.) aerial view (preview) of marker and unlimited Undo/Redo steps increases work effectivity
