Jacquard fabric simulation with extra wefts in ArahWeave

Abstract

The ARAHNE integrated CAD/CAM software (ArahPaint, ArahWeave, ArahDrape and ArahView3D) is a top-performing solution in the market that facilitates the design and weaving of Dobby and Jacquard fabrics. It offers end-to-end support for the entire production process, starting from the Computer-Aided Design (CAD) phase all the way through to Computer-Aided Manufacturing (CAM) for production.

In this paper are explored the advantages of using ArahWeave software with a focus on Jacquard fabrics with extra threads. To this purpose were applied the principles and elements of textile design that produce more pronounced decorative effects. ArahDrape, a texture mapping software, enhances 3D presentations of fabrics by offering ultra-realistic simulations of woven fabrics on final products.
