Partex Apparel International chooses Tukatech's E-Fit Simulator

Los Angeles, CA: Tukatech, Inc. has announced the first installation of E-Fit Simulator by TUKA in Central America at Partex Apparel International in El Salvador. Partex is a highly engineered and well respected vendor to many brands and retailers in the USA and a long time customer of Tukatech.

“We are all looking at reducing the development time. The 3D virtual samples make more sense today than ever. We expect to reduce time and cost significantly with 3D sampling process. I especially love the built-in motion simulator that gives instant feedback on mistakes so we can correct and move on immediately,” said Mr. Zighelboim from Partex.

e-fit Simulator by TUKA makes it easy for designers, pattern makers and apparel manufacturers to present style decisions, test the fit of a garment or share fit comments with others around the globe.

The software takes a digital (CAD) patterns and a set of fabric values such as stretch, weight, texture etc.

It creates a digital sample of the garment, draped on a 3D virtual fit model which is the exact replica of the live fit model, with ZERO tolerance by using the latest in cloth simulation technology.

“In fact, if your company is outsourcing your apparel manufacturing to other parts of the world, your vendors may be using e-fit Simulator by TUKA or other Tukatech products without you even knowing it. Hundreds of brands and retailers around the world benefit from the use of e-fit by their vendors in India, Pakistan, Bangladesh and Sri Lanka.

If you are a vendor to brands and retailers, your success and survival depends on delivering quality clothing to your buyers on time, and every day you spend waiting for approvals or making and shipping samples is time you can't afford to waste. e-fit Simulator will make your pattern makers more accurate, will shorten your approval time from weeks to days, and can give you the extra time you need to be flexible and increase productivity in today's shaky economic climate,” said Ram Sareen, CEO and Founder of Tukatech.

Mr. David Ha, (new managing partner of Partex who has several important cut and sew operations in CAFTA region) also long time Tuka customer with CAD systems, was also attending Tukatech’s 3D seminar with few of their out of town customers in L.A. “This decision was lightning fast. We saw the systems, purchased and paid within 24 hours to get this going so we can reap the benefits. Given very positive customer feedback, the return on investment will be very fast as well. TUKA’S 3D technology enhanced our ability to shorten product development cycles significantly”.
