For Yarn Dyed and Dobby Woven Fabrics

Weave Functionality

Defining draft,peg plan can be done numerically or directly drawing on a point paper. Simple to use cut,copy,paste,mirror tools etc. are supported.

Weave Book

The Weave Book feature in Design Dobby is a powerful tool that effectively manages the library of weaves, allowing users to create intricate and diverse weave structures. This feature enhances the design process within fabric textile design software by providing comprehensive controls to combine different weave patterns, making it ideal for designers working on complex textiles. With Design Dobby's advanced auto weave generation capability, users can easily create multiple design effects within a single draft order. By modifying the lifting plan, the software offers great flexibility in designing woven fabrics, jacquard patterns, and other fabric types. This ensures that designers have full control over the technical aspects of weave & pattern designing, enabling them to experiment with new ideas and create unique textile effects. As part of the textile CAD software, the Weave Book seamlessly integrates with other design tools, making it easier to convert designs from fabric to CAD. Whether you're working on dobby designing software or fabric CAD software, this feature helps streamline the design process, improve productivity, and enhance creativity, all while ensuring the accuracy and quality of the final product.

Weave Creator

The software supports intuitive tools like cut, copy, paste, and mirror, streamlining the design process and enabling quick modifications without compromising precision. As a part of textile CAD CAM software, this functionality integrates seamlessly with the larger design ecosystem, ensuring smooth workflows for dobby designing software. By leveraging these tools, designers can create intricate weave structures with ease, all while ensuring technical accuracy and efficiency. Design Dobby serves as an advanced fabric CAD software that elevates the design process from concept to completion.

Yarn Development

Yarn Development in Design Dobby takes textile design to the next level, enabling you to create and simulate yarns with exceptional precision and accuracy. This powerful feature of fabric textile design software allows you to quickly develop and archive a wide variety of yarn types, ensuring complete size and color accuracy for every design. The yarn generator is a critical tool in the textile CAD workflow, allowing designers to visualize the impact of different yarns on their fabric designs in real-time. Whether you’re working with dobby designing software or other types of textile patterns, the tool integrates smoothly, ensuring your designs remain consistent and true to your creative vision.
With fabric to CAD capabilities, this feature automatically updates your yarn specifications, integrating seamlessly with other tools like Weave & Pattern designing. The textile CAD CAM software enables you to easily incorporate yarn developments into your design pipeline, enhancing the efficiency and precision of your design process.
Moreover, the fabric CAD software ensures that all yarn parameters—size, color, and texture—are accurately represented in both simulations and final designs, making it easier for you to deliver high-quality products to your customers. Whether you’re designing for fashion, furnishings, or technical textiles, this feature provides a robust solution for yarn development.

Yarn Creator

Control and define twist direction and frequency, slub and nub size and randomness, as well as yarn unevenness parameters. Design Dobby can also create space dyed, dyed, fancy, melange, slubs, loop, taspa, etc or combination of different fancy effects, novelty and even heathered yarns. Overall fabric finishing lets you brush and texture fabrics as well as simulate shaded yarns for "3D" yarn effects.

The developed yarns can be visualized in real time for evaluation and interactive changes. Also fabric effect of yarn developed can be simulated.

• Supports all of the major yarn count systems, Nden, Ncc, Nmc, Ntex and Mm.
• No practical limit on yarn count simulation: from 0.01 to 1000 Ncc.
• Support for fancy yarns (mouline, melange, multico) with up to 5 color components.
• Support for fancy effects (Slub, neps, taspa, loop, gradational, space dyed etc...) with up to 5 color components.
• Scanning feature for creation of fancy yarns.
• User can specify the parameters of the yarn (twists/meter, twist sense (S/Z), number, percentage and colors of components, the yarn model to be used).
• Yarn costing data stored with the yarn file for use in fabric costing.
• Custom yarn libraries are supported.

Design Dobby Database

Design Dobby offers computer aided designing and manufacturing tools that function with an effective search program using technical specifications, designs, patterns, etc to locate existing designs within a database; it even sorts creations as per seasons, customers, etc. Yarn and color information can also be optimized for production planning and control.

Auto Designing & Story / Mood board creation

In a yet another first, Textronics has fortified the Design Dobby to carry an exclusive Auto Designing feature that allows your system to work within user-defined fabric design parameters to automatically generate newer designs.

The Design Dobby provides

• Story and Mood boards for creating an array of unique pattern
• Barcode stripes, bold designs, Fil-a-fil, pattern-in-pattern designs
• Fabric simulation with yarn effects
• Fancy yarns - flannel effect, chenille yarn, slub yarn, linen
• Creation of any color and production of an almost limitless pallet

Page Setup

Page layout for Design Dobby is a flexible tool that allows you to choose from the range of layouts, print styles, logos, backgrounds, mood boards, etc. and present a perfect pitch for your textile collection.

You can use the standard layouts or customize them as per needs. You can insert mood board images and position/print logos, design name, palette, count and construction parameters.
