WHILE a large part of the industry responded to the needs of executives, Capital Automation focused its attention on the textile industry.
It created the time-saving SUPER-EDS Embroidery Design System. The system offers a three-dimensional feature on screen and on paper.
This idea and its execution earned the Tsuen Wan-based company a Certificate of Merit in the Machinery and Equipment Design Category. It is the first system that utilises embroidery simulation software.
One bonus is that it displays the total number of stitches for reference and freely mixes the colour of the thread to imitate the look of embroidery.
By using a 720DPI colour inkjet printer, the user can print the simulated embroidery on paper in the actual size of the sample.
The print-out can include other wording in the header and footer that can be designed by the designer and sewer. It is a scanner-based system that uses an on-screen punching method.
