Durch weniger – oder sogar gar keine physischen Prototypen senken Modeunternehmen die Entwicklungskosten und neue Produkte können möglichst zeitnah nach Trenderkennung auf dem Markt eingeführt werden.

Optimierte Zusammenarbeit

Modellmacher können mit der neuen Version von jedem Gerät aus mit ihren Partnern 360-Grad-Videos austauschen. Im Gegenzug können Designer mit dem neuen 3D Style-Modul Modell und Passform
anzeigen, kommentieren und genehmigen.

Schnellere Modellerstellung

Die Upgrades von Modaris V8R2 reduzieren die physischen Prototypen um bis zu 50 %. Sie bieten eine noch bessere Qualität der 3D-Simulationen und eine erweiterte Biblioth ek mit mehreren neuen Funktionen - von 3D-Absteppungen, über Beleuchtungsoptionen bis hin zu Pantone und Natural Color Systemen. Die Lösung ist mit dem hochwertigen Vizoo Scanner kompatibel, der für realistischer aussehende Stoffmuster sorgt. Zudem ermöglichen weitere 3D-Komponenten, wie Maya, 3DS Max oder Iray, realitätsgetreuere und genauere digitale Renderings der Prototypen. Mit der neuen Abnäherfunktion von Modaris V8R2 können Modellersteller den Modellen problemlos Abmessungen hinzufügen und für die Änderung eines Abnähers ist nur noch halb so viel Zeit erforderlich.

Garantiert die richtige Größe

Des Weiteren ermöglicht die Lösung die Verwaltung unterschiedlicher Maßeinheiten und trägt damit den Anforderungen der globalen Arbeitskräfte der Modebranche Rechnung. Mit Lectras Modaris V8R2
können Modellmacher und externe Lieferanten die Übereinstimmung von Größen garantieren, ungeachtet der in den Herstellungsländern verwendeten Maßsysteme. Mit Modaris V8R2 baut Lectra seine Position als führender Anbieter von Produktentwicklungssoftware weiter aus und die neue Version wird bereits bei Pilotkunden, wie dem italienischen Modeunternehmen GGZ positiv aufgenommen: „GGZ ist ein Fast-Fashion-Unternehmen - Zeit und Qualität sind für uns von ausschlaggebender Bedeutung. Mit der neuen Abnäherfunktion von Modaris können wir Modelländerungen in der Hälfte der Zeit durchführen. Darüber hinaus können wir durch das 3DPrototyping schon frühzeitig sicherstellen, dass die Größen und Proportionen der Modelle den Erwartungen der Designer entsprechen und die Vorlaufzeiten deutlich reduzieren“, sagt Majla Gottardo, Modellerstellerin, GGZ.

„Im Informationszeitalter reagieren wir mit unseren Lösungen auf die Bedürfnisse von Modellerstellern, die den unterschiedlichen Vorlieben, Körperformen und Größen der Verbraucher gerecht werden müssen. Modellmacher müssen eine Vielzahl von Kollektionen liefern und können sich keine Fehler leisten. Wir möchten ihre alltägliche Arbeit erleichtern und ihnen helfen, den Entwicklungsprozess zu rationalisieren und die Anzahl von Nacharbeiten zu reduzieren, damit sie gleich von Anfang an die richtige Passform erzielen“, erklärt Céline Choussy, Chief Marketing & Communications Officer, Lectra. „All das ist mit Modaris V8R2 möglich.“

Thermoplastic Insoles and Highly Durable Tent Fabric launched by Porcher Sport

Porcher Sport, the Sports and Leisure Division of Porcher Industries has unveiled new innovations for the outdoor equipment and apparel sectors at Outdoor by ISPO 2019 in Munich this week.

Innovations range as wide as new thermoplastic insoles for customised footwear to a new highly durable tent fabric.

Highly durable tent fabric weighing only 41gsm
Porcher Sport plans to disrupt the backpacking tent market with its newly developed 20 denier tent fabric, weighing only 41 gsm. This fabric is slightly lighter, but significantly stronger and more durable than existing high-quality materials on the market. Through continuous R&D, Porcher Sport has improved the performance of its tent fabric by increasing the tear strength. The ripstop material is coated on both sides with two layers of silicone creating a reinforced, waterproof fabric that is lightweight, tear-resistant and highly durable. As a result, Porcher Sport guarantees customers will be able to enjoy their tent for a minimum of 10 years. The novel tent fabric will be available in 2020.

Dürkopp Adler: Die neue M-TYPE DELTA

Von der Maschine zum Assistenten
„Durch unser bahnbrechendes neues Nähsystem M-TYPE DELTA definieren wir das industrielle Nähen neu und ermöglichen Lösungen, die früher nicht denkbar waren“, sagt Dietrich Eickhoff, CEO der Dürkopp Adler Group, bei der Weltpremiere auf der Texprocess 2019 in Frankfurt: „Die Nähmaschine wird zum Assistenten, zum Partner, zum Helfer und zum Kommunikator. Das ist ein signifikanter Unterschied zu allen bisherigen Maschinenkonzepten und bietet unglaublich viele neue Möglichkeiten!“

Das neue M-TYPE DELTA Nähsystem ist eine voll digitalisierte Industrienähmaschine für Materialien wie Leder, Polster und technische Textilien. „Wir produzieren mit dieser Maschine die perfekte Naht, und das in jeder Situation, ohne Umstellungsaufwand“, erläutert Thomas Brinkhoff, Director of Marketing Dürkopp Adler Group. Dafür sorgt unter anderem die neue Nähkinematik, mit der sofort beste Nähergebnisse erzielt werden, ohne dass die Maschine mechanisch verändert werden muss.

Das Anlernen der Bedienperson wird auf das absolute Minimum reduziert, denn die Maschine zeigt dem Bediener mit Videounterstützung, was zu tun ist, und wie es am besten geht. Mit ausgefeilter Sensorik sorgt die M-TYPE DELTA dafür, dass nahezu keine Verluste von wertvollen Materialien durch Fehlstiche oder fehlenden Faden vorkommen.
Ein integrierter Wartungsassistent meldet sich nutzungs- oder zeitgesteuert und weist auf anstehende Arbeiten hin. Servicearbeiten können in der Maschine dokumentiert und jederzeit abgerufen werden. So werden Maschinenstillstandzeiten auf ein absolutes Minimum reduziert.

„Wer individualisierte Produkte industriell nähen will, kann sich mit diesem Nähsystem den entscheidenden Wettbewerbsvorteil verschaffen“, betont Dietrich Eickhoff, „denn die M-TYPE DELTA
ist für den Einsatz in dafür notwendigen Maschinennetzwerken wie unserem QONDAC-System perfekt vorbereitet.“

Devan führt zwei neue nachhaltige Technologien ein

Devan Chemicals führt auf der Techtextil in Frankfurt (14. bis 17. Mai) zwei neue Technologien ein: Bio-flam, ein biobasiertes Flammschutzmittel, und Odour Breakdown, eine waschfeste, nicht-biozide Lösung gegen Geruchsbildung.

Alle zwei Jahre stellt Devan Chemicals traditionell auf der Techtextil aus, der internationalen Leitmesse für technische Textilien und Vliesstoffe. Die neuen Devan-Technologien kommen den aktuellen Bestrebungen von Produktentwicklern und Portfoliodesignern nach erhöhter Nachhaltigkeit und Transparenz entgegen.

Bio-flam
Einige Daten und Fakten: Jeden Tag kommt es in der EU zu mindestens 5.000 Bränden. Jedes Jahr müssen rund 70.000 Menschen mit brandbedingten Verletzungen stationär behandelt werden. Brände verursachen zudem eine Umweltverschmutzung.

Bio-flam
Einige Daten und Fakten: Jeden Tag kommt es in der EU zu mindestens 5.000 Bränden. Jedes Jahr müssen rund 70.000 Menschen mit brandbedingten Verletzungen stationär behandelt werden. Brände verursachen zudem eine Umweltverschmutzung.

Die nachhaltige Flammschutzausrüstung von Produkten ist daher eine wirtschaftliche, umwelt- und lebenserhaltende Notwendigkeit. Nehmen wir zum Beispiel Matratzen: Tests haben gezeigt, dass nicht-flammgeschützte Produkte im Brandfall eine Fluchtzeit von weniger als fünf Minuten lassen. Das ist leider zu wenig bis zum Eintreffen der Feuerwehr. Um die Fluchtzeit zu verlängern, das Risiko zu reduzieren und Leben zu retten, müssen Produkte folglich flammwidrig sein.

Die Herausforderung besteht darin, Flammschutzeigenschaften auf möglichst natürliche Weise zu erreichen, um die richtige Balance zwischen der Sicherheit für Menschen und dem Wohl des Planeten zu finden.
Unternehmen können dies bewerkstelligen, indem sie nicht-erneuerbare Rohstoffe durch biobasierte Flammschutzausrüstungen ersetzen, die aus erneuerbaren Quellen gewonnen werden und keine Halogene oder Schwermetalle enthalten, wie in der EN 16785-1:2015 beschrieben.

Biobasierte Flammschutzmittel wie Bio-flam werden aus erneuerbaren, pflanzlichen Stoffen hergestellt und stehen auch dem biologischen Abbau der damit ausgerüsteten Produkte nicht im Weg. Die aktiven Inhaltsstoffe sind zu 100 Prozent halogen- und schwermetallfrei.

Dies ist eine willkommene Innovation für die Bettwarenindustrie, denn um das Deponieaufkommen zu reduzieren, verlangt die Europäische Kommission, dass alle Matratzen ab 2030 recycelbar sind. Bio-flam P307 ist das erste im Markt eingeführte Produkt der neuen BIO-FR-Familie von Devan. Es ist biologisch abbaubar und wurde speziell für den Einsatz in reiner Baumwolle oder in Baumwolle/Viskose-Mischgeweben entwickelt, um auf jeden Fall eine umweltverträgliche und sichere Lösung für Mensch und Planet zu gewährleisten. Bio-flam P 307 eignen sich für Matratzendrell im Einklang mit EN 597 1&2. Die Forscher bei Devan arbeiten aktiv an der Entwicklung weiterer biobasierter Produkte für andere Marktsegmente und gemäß anderer Brandschutznormen.

MANTECO welcomes European Commissioner Elżbieta Bieńkowska

On March 7th, European Commissioner on the Internal Market, Industry, Entrepreneurship and Small and Medium-Sized Enterprises has been welcomed in Prato by the mayor Matteo Bittoni and by the Councilor for Productive Activities Daniela Toccafondi, together with the economic categories for a meeting organized by the Department of Economic Development with reference to the Fashion System.

By the end of the meeting, the only company visit planned has followed, and brought to the Manteco headquarter. Manteco is a firm leader in the production of wool and recycled fabrics since 1943.  Today led by Matteo and Marco Mantellassi, Manteco is able to value territory, sharing economy, sustainability, internationalization and the use of renewable energies – not only as an investment policy but also as a distinctive element for the identification of the company as an international reference point for the fashion textile sector.

The company visit was attended by European Commissioner Elzbieta Bienkowska, Justina Morek, member of the Commissioner's Cabinet, Beatrice Covassi, director of the Representation of the European Commission in Rome, Slawomir Tokarski, director for advanced and innovative manufacturing in the general direction of the internal market and European Commission industry, MEP Hon. Nicola Danti, dr. Alberto Biginelli, Councilor Daniela Toccafondi; The Mayor of Prato Matteo Bittoni, the Mayor of the Municipality of Montemurlo, Mauro Lorenzini.

The key topic of the meeting has been the circular economy  – that is to consider very close to Manteco – along with some others explored such as the value of Made in Italy, the importance of a responsible approach to reuse and the need for a traceability system. Noteworthy the visit to the Manteco Archive, during which the focus has been on raw materials, with reference to the tradition and experience that today are perfectly combined with the strong innovative drive and creativity. Upon request of the European Commissioner, the corporate approach with a view to circular economy, km0 production system and how it fits into the productive district were also dealt with.
 
«I visited a textile company that recycles or reuses waste materials to produce wool of the highest quality: this is an excellent example of circular economy. The circular economy is an extremely interesting subject everywhere in Europe, because we are leaders in sustainability, and we want our children and ourselves to be able to live in a country that is livable in the future, so that's why it is worthwhile to show stories in Europe of success like this, which is a good practice that we are putting into practice, starting with the big industries and the energy-intensive ones » - Elzbieta Bienkowska -

Recycling of Coated and Painted Textile and Plastic Materials

The EU-funded Project, in which Devan Chemicals is a key partner, held a kick off meeting end of February 2019 at the EU Commission in Brussels, Belgium. The project consortium, led by Belgian R&D centre CENTEXBEL, consists of 17 European partners from across the value chain including design, manufacturing, NGOs, and research and innovation.

The focus of the consortium is on coated and painted textiles and plastic materials which are currently not recyclable. Ambitious plastic recycling targets of 50% have been set by the European Plastics Industry, and to meet these targets, smart solutions to enable the circular use of textile and plastic parts with multi-layer coatings must be considered.

DECOAT has therefore been established to investigate triggerable smart polymer material systems and appropriate recycling processes. The solutions will be based on smart additives (like microcapsules or microwave triggered additives) that will enable the efficient of coatings and other finishes, activated by a specific trigger (heat, humidity, microwave, chemical) to permit recycling.

The solutions will be based on smart additives (like microcapsules or microwave triggered additives) that will enable the efficient of coatings and other finishes, activated by a specific trigger (heat, humidity, microwave, chemical) to permit recycling.        

Devan’s specific role is in the development of microcapsules that will release its active core on application of a certain trigger (e.g. heat) at the end of life of the article. This active core material may be something that, for example, will promote the detachment of different coating layers (by separating them), opening the possibility for recyclability/re-use of the base materials. Different active core ingredients will be evaluated, and Devan will develop processes for each type of core ingredient and for each type of coating layer/matrix.

The bold aim of the four-year project is to decrease landfill by 75% of coated articles that are presently difficult to recycle, such as clothing, electronic goods and automotive components. A reduction in the carbon footprint by at least 30% for the considered products is aimed for. By enabling the recycling of such materials, DECOAT is expected to generate in the medium term a new market valued at over 150 million Euros in Europe.
