How are physical fabric properties measured?
How is 3D validation done?
Quality Verification : Drape Test
We verify the fabric physical properties via a process called the Drape Test*.
- Each physical and digital fabrics are cut into the same sample size (50 x 50 cm) and placed on an identical size physical and virtual cylinder.
- Validating Height: We measure and compare the height between the floor and each corner of the drape.
- If the height varies by less than or equal to one(1) centimeter, the digital twin is considered to be accurately reflecting the physical properties.
- If the height varies by more than one(1) centimeter, we manually adjust specific parameters until the difference is less than one(1) centimeter.
- Validating No. of Flares: We measure and compare the number of flares from the top view.
- If the number of flares are less than eight(8): The number of flares should be identical for both the physical and digital twin fabric.
- If the number of flares is equal to or more than eight(8): The difference of the number of flares should be less than or equal to one(1) flare.
- If the difference in the number of flares does not meet the requirements stated above, we manually adjust specific parameters until the requirements are met.
Why is 3D validation important?
3D validation process with the most updated device and algorithms minimize human errors, and provide more accurate digital fabrics.
Fabric data management via CLO-SET
Pricing
Digitization prices are $60, which includes $40 for measuring physical properties with the 3D validation and $20 for texture scanning. If colors are added, an additional $20 is added per color.
Please see an example below:
($60) + ($20 x 3) = $120 for digitizing fabrics with 4 colorways with the same physical properties.
