Fabric Design
Any fabric design begins with a creative idea. Using REACH fabric Design creativity can be quickly translated into
reality. It allows scanning, or importing, or to create any kind of fabric from dobby knits to leather fabrics in the
software itself with real texture effects. The quality of the simulation is recognized by prominent textile designers,
which turns the software into an authentic virtual loom, obtains the simulation of the fabric either on the screen or
on paper by means of a printer, with total realism. Fabrics designed here can be taken to 3D product visualization
or to texture mapping for presentation in realistic and dynamic ways in just a few clicks. It leads to avoid or
speedup sampling. To promote time saving and to reduce raw material waste during the study of the collection
or sampling.
