Overlapping Production Method Using Common Rolled Material
An overlap production method of using standard coiled material, comprising the steps of: selecting a standard coiled material, designing a pattern, laser cutting according to the design pattern, cutting or reserving spaces for inserting drawn strips, forming by staggering and overlapping each layer of standard coiled material, and inserting partial materials of a standard coiled material layer into an adjacent standard coiled material and fixing it with the partial materials of the adjacent standard coiled material, or inserting the drawn strips into the spaces reserved in each layer, and combining the composition and the base clothing to make a product. The present invention produces the product with the above production method by using standard coiled materials instead of thread or strip materials, which not only achieves the goal of higher production efficiency and lower cost, but also makes the finished products have a new staggered material effect.
INDIGO-DERIVATIVES AS IRREVERSIBLE COLOR CHANGEABLE DYES FOR TEXTILE MATERIALS AND PROCESS FOR DYEING TEXTILE MATERIALS
Provided are novel compounds of indigo-derivatives as irreversible color changeable dyes. Also provided are methods for the use of various indigo-derivatives for irreversibly color changeable dyes for textile materials and to novel compounds. Also provided is a process for dyeing textile materials, especially denim, with indigo-irreversible color changeable dyes and for textiles and garment articles made by the dyeing process for textile materials.
Laser finishing design and preview tool
A tool allows a user to create new designs for apparel and preview these designs before manufacture. Software and lasers are used in finishing apparel to produce a desired wear pattern or other design. Based on a laser input file with a pattern, a laser will burn the pattern onto apparel. With the tool, the user will be able to create, make changes, and view images of a design, in real time, before burning by a laser. Input to the tool includes fabric template images, laser input files, and damage input. The tool allows adding of tinting and adjusting of intensity and bright point. The user can also move, rotate, scale, and warp the image input.
Virtual reality store with previews of laser-finished garments
A system allows a user to create new designs for apparel and preview these designs before manufacture. Software and lasers are used in finishing apparel to produce a desired wear pattern or other design. The system provides feedback to the user on how their designs may appear in a virtual store or storefront, such as through virtual reality or augment reality techniques.
Laser finishing design tool
A computer system of a finishing center, such as a mobile finishing center, includes a tool that allows a customer to preview or create new designs for apparel before purchase and before laser finishing. Software and lasers are used in finishing apparel to produce a desired wear pattern or other design. Based on a laser input file with a pattern, a laser will burn or ablate the pattern onto apparel. With the tool, the customer will be able to preview, create, make changes, and view images of a design, in real time, before purchase and burning or ablation by a laser. Input to the tool can include fabric template images, laser input files, and damage input. In an implementation, the customer or another user can also move, rotate, scale, and warp the image input.
SEAM FOR AN INDUSTRIAL TEXTILE WITH ENERGY ABSORBENT YARNS
A woven fabric seam area is provided including a top surface and a bottom surface, with the woven fabric being formed of warp yarns interwoven with weft yarns in a repeating pattern, and either the warp yarns or the weft yarns are formed at least in part of a laser energy absorbent material. Within the fabric seam area yarns formed of laser energy transparent material can be bonded to yarns being formed at least in part of a laser energy absorbent material by laser welds in order to maintain or achieve a desired flexibility and/or shear resistance of the fabric. A method of forming such a fabric seam area is also provided.
APPARATUS FOR HIGH-SPEED PROCESSING OF FABRICS
An apparatus for laser processing of very wide non-woven fabric materials at high speeds. This invention enables a laser beam to sever, perforate and pattern a large piece of fabric materials planarly disposed at regular or irregular spatial intervals over the entire width while the fabric passes from one roller to another roller at high speeds by precisely managing focus and intensity of the beam at the focal point on the web. A control system managing the laser processing system enables rapid reconfiguration of perforation patterns. The fabric can be woven or nonwoven, homogeneous or nonhomogeneous material with uniform or nonuniform thickness. An optical sensor is provided to sense the laser processing as it is performed and provide feedback to a system controller to optimize laser processing performance in real time.
Creating a finishing pattern on a garment by laser
Software and lasers are used in finishing apparel to produce a desired wear pattern or other design. A technique includes determining a fabric's response to a laser, capturing an initial image of a wear pattern on a garment, and processing the initial image to obtain a working image in grayscale. The working image is further processed to obtain a difference image by comparing each pixel relative to a dark reference. The difference image is converted to a laser values image by using the previously determined fabric response to the laser.
Using Ascorbic Acid or Sodium Ascorbate to Extend Storage Life of Base Templates for Laser Finishing
Indigo-dyed garments are treated with an anti-ozone agent to prevent ozone-related degradation of the garments before laser finishing. Without treatment, the garments can exhibit color loss (e.g., color change or fading) from exposure to ozone in the atmosphere. The indigo-dyed garments with anti-ozone treatment can serve as base templates in a laser finishing process flow. The anti-ozone treatment of the base templates can include a rinse including an ascorbic acid or vitamin C constituent during a base preparation process. Then quantities of these base templates can manufactured and stored for periods of time without exhibiting ozone-related degradation effects.
INDICATOR MARKING TECHNOLOGY FOR TEXTILES
Improved methods, designs and/or systems for incorporating markings and/or other visual and/or tactilely identifiable indicia on woven, knitted, nonwoven, braided and/or felted textiles used for medical textile implants and prostheses, including medical graft prostheses that would not affect the overall mechanical performance of the textile.
