Imagine the fabric as the canvas, the base. The patterns, on the other hand, are the pieces you need to fit.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Making this fit efficiently is the key differentiator. The better the assembly of this puzzle, the higher the fabric yield will be. You can reduce waste, bringing more efficiency and sustainable practices to your production. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A good fashion manager knows better than anyone: the difference is in the details. Piece by piece, a well-executed cutting plan transforms your production.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-why-include-a-cutting-plan-in-your-manufacturing-process-nbsp\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"why-include-a-cutting-plan-in-your-manufacturing-process\"><\/span><strong>Why include a cutting plan in your manufacturing process?<\/strong>&nbsp;<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>One aspect that distinguishes excellent productions is their strategic outlook.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Analyzing the big picture, projecting scenarios, and making more informed decisions. Implementing a cutting plan drives your business in that direction.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>No matter the size of your production, a good plan is key for:&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-maximizing-fabric-usage-nbsp\">Maximizing fabric usage&nbsp;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The fitting of pieces can save precious centimeters of fabric. Centimeters that turn into meters, meters that result in profit.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-precise-cutting-nbsp\">Precise cutting&nbsp;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Technologies like <a href=\"https:\/\/audaces.com\/en\/products\/audaces-icf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Audaces ICF<\/a> (Intelligent Cutting Flow), integrated into cutting rooms, create cutting plans with extreme precision.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Whether the patterns are symmetrical, straight, or curved, the fitting is done without compromising final quality. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-production-predictability-nbsp\">Production predictability&nbsp;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The cutting plan allows you to know in advance the fabric yield per layup. It also helps estimate waste due to defects.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Fewer unpleasant surprises, more informed decisions, and deadlines met.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-consistent-deliveries\">Consistent deliveries<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Once the cutting plan is created, it only needs to be replicated. This ensures standardized cuts and, consequently, uniformity in garment fit.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The production flow also becomes smoother, with faster assembly and deliveries. And to put all this into practice, technology is a key ally.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Let\u2019s discover how to create 100% digital cutting plans!&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-how-to-create-a-fabric-cutting-plan-online-nbsp\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"how-to-create-a-fabric-cutting-plan-online\"><\/span><strong>How to create a fabric cutting plan online?<\/strong>&nbsp;<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.mckinsey.com\/featured-insights\/mckinsey-explainers\/what-are-industry-4-0-the-fourth-industrial-revolution-and-4ir\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Industry 4.0<\/a> has transformed textile production with automated cutting machines and management software.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When physical patterns give way to digital ones and automatic marking, the puzzle becomes easier to solve. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Before activating the machine, an excellent cutting plan must follow 5 detailed steps. Find out what they are:&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-1-understand-fabric-specifications-nbsp\">1) Understand fabric specifications&nbsp;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Each fabric has unique characteristics that influence its cutting. Knit fabrics tend to stretch and distort more easily, for example. Denim stretches less but usually has a heavier weight.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Different materials require configurations tailored to their flexibility, drape, and grain direction. Including this in the cutting plan ensures precision and avoids distortion in the pieces.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Another point: due to manufacturing variations, the usable width of the fabric doesn&#8217;t always match its nominal width. If possible, measure it again before setting up your plan.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Learn more:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/audaces.com\/en\/blog\/types-fabric\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">The best types of fabric for your clothing company<\/a>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-2-choose-the-layup-method\">2) Choose the layup method<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Fabric preparation for cutting can be manual, semi-automatic, or automatic.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The manual method happens without the aid of machines. The fabric is spread on the cutting table manually, usually by a layup worker and an assistant. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the semi-automatic method, a machine helps move the fabric roll across the cutting table. An operator is necessary in this case. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the automatic layup, the cutting room operates on its own. The machine works from a nesting file that serves as a guide. Only one person is required to supervise the process.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-3-set-the-number-of-layers-nbsp\">3) Set the number of layers&nbsp;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>To determine this number, consider the resistance of the cutting blade and the compressibility of the fabric.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Sturdy materials can handle more layers. Others, more delicate, cannot. This care prevents distortions during cutting.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In smaller productions, with little room for waste, caution must be even greater. The uniform compression of fabrics is also important.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Learn more:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/audaces.com\/en\/blog\/automatic-fabric-spreading\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Discover what automatic fabric spreading is and how to make it properly<\/a>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-4-define-the-pattern-placement-nbsp\">4) Define the pattern placement&nbsp;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Pattern placement is crucial for optimizing fabric usage. The goal here is to organize the pieces with minimal leftover space.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Nesting software makes a huge difference. It analyzes the shape of the patterns and determines the best arrangement automatically.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-5-check-nesting-prioritization-nbsp\">5) Check nesting prioritization&nbsp;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>With the patterns arranged, the prioritization involves ensuring the fabric is used to its fullest.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Check, for example, if smaller patterns are well placed between larger ones.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s also time to review everything before cutting. Simulations of nesting and cutting, with small configuration changes, can be helpful to predict outcomes.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-benefits-of-using-an-online-cutting-plan-in-your-manufacturing-nbsp\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"benefits-of-using-an-online-cutting-plan-in-your-manufacturing\"><\/span><strong>Benefits of using an online cutting plan in your manufacturing<\/strong>&nbsp;<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/audaces.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/cutting-plan-benefits.webp\" alt=\"Supervisor adjusting an Audaces Neocut Bravo cutting machine. \" class=\"wp-image-181405\" srcset=\"https:\/\/audaces.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/cutting-plan-benefits.webp 1024w, https:\/\/audaces.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/cutting-plan-benefits-300x200.webp 300w, https:\/\/audaces.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/cutting-plan-benefits-768x512.webp 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>With the help of technology, your production gains a lot.

This allows your team to focus on other areas like innovation and quality control.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-better-labor-investments-nbsp\">Better labor investments&nbsp;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The less automated your process, the more reliant you are on specialized labor. By using technology, your production becomes more independent. Many stages start functioning with just machines.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Another benefit is the reduction of errors, thanks to the precision of the digital cutting plan. You can reallocate investments in staff, such as streamlining your team or investing in professionals from other areas.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-reduced-rework-nbsp\">Reduced rework&nbsp;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Poor planning\u2014or lack thereof\u2014is one of the main causes of rework.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With an online cutting plan, the preparation and cutting of pieces are organized from the start.
