Method for preparing pattern piece

Details

Inventors: Pearl, David R.;
Assignee: Gerber Garment Technology, Inc. (South Windsor, CT)
Primary Examiner: Lawrence; Evan K.
Assistant Examiner:
Attorney, Agent or Firm: McCormick, Paulding & Huber

A pattern piece is prepared by moving a cutting instrument in accordance with a predetermined program and in cutting engagement with sheet material spread on a supporting surface to cut the pattern piece from the sheet material. Simultaneously with the cutting operation, a substance is applied to the sheet material along at least a substantial portion of the outline of the pattern piece. The applied substance may be a marking fluid for outlining the pattern piece to facilitate its separation from adjacent scrap material or adhesive for enabling a pickup surface brought into adhering engagement with the applied adhesive to pickup either the cut pattern piece or the scrap material.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION In accordance with the present invention a pattern piece is prepared by spreading at least one sheet of material on a supporting surface, moving a cutting instrument in cutting engagement with the spread material in accordance with a predetermined program to cut a pattern piece from the sheet material, and applying adhesive to the sheet material to facilitate its separation from surrounding scrap material.
The pattern piece or the scrap material which surrounds it is picked up by moving a pickup surface into adhering engagement with the applied adhesive.
