With any business, saving time and money is a huge benefit and finding the most productive tools to allow you to do that is key. 

Digital patterning is proven to help you save time and ExactFlat Scan to Pattern is the faster, better, cheaper, and easier way to create patterns for all your products. If you are new to digital patterning, no need to worry, we'll show you how. Check out the 3 part video series below:

• Step 1 we scan a chair to capture the shape in all its detail 

• Step 2 we define our pattern shapes and convert our scan to 3D CAD, and in

• Step 3 we flatten our 3D CAD model to create perfectly shaped 2D flat patterns.

Step 1: Laser Scanning

Most beginners can learn the scanning process in just a few practice sessions.

Scanning is easy and is most cases can be completed in a few minutes. Check out Video #1 to learn more.

Step 2: Convert your scan to 3D

The second part of the process requires that we “clean” up the scan and finish with a 3D CAD model that accurately represents the shape of our furniture part.  Just like scanning, it can be learned in just a few sessions.  The video below shows the whole process.  

Step 3: Flatten 3D to 2D

Flattening your 3D model can be completed in about 5 steps that typically take around 5 minutes.  You get perfectly shaped patterns and just like in step 1 and step 2, step 3 can be learned in just a few sessions and usually less than 2 hours.  The video below shows you how.
