Abstract

In the ready-made clothing industry, computer aided
design (CAD) systems are most commonly used for basic pattern making, grading
and marker making processes.  Even though
there are various software in this area in the market, pattern making process
is still performed manually in several ready-made clothing businesses. In this
research, the amount of time required for the processes of clothing technical
pattern making, modelling, grading and marker making via CAD systems has been
compared to time required for the manual method, with the aim of determining
the more efficient approach. To this end, time measurements for the steps of
these processes, specified by 3 expert pattern designers and 3 CAD operators,
were taken and compared. The comparison has been focused on the aspects of
processes that made a difference in terms of time, the effect of these
processes on total time and the identification of the factors that resulted in
the time difference.  Upper-body clothing
has been chosen as the focus of this study due to the involvement of several
steps in the processes of basic pattern making and grading. The acquired data
has shown that the process times required for CAD systems have been shorter
than those for manual design in every step that have an important place in the
pre-production preparation process.
