Abstract

Nowadays the clothing industry is facing major quality, competitiveness and productivity issues, locally and internationally; the fabric cutting process has become a critical area as to seek for to improve the marketing participation of small and medium size factories. There are spreading and cutting machines in the market; however, they are very big and expensive, hard to obtain, install and maintain. This article describes the process of development of an automated system for fabric spreading, holding and cutting using the “Design Thinking” methodology, looking to optimize the space, safety and production cost. Virtual and physical prototyping allowed us to test the preliminary ideas for the machine, using tools as FMEA and Weighted Method for Selection of Technologies, in order to concrete the final design.
