Digitising

We can capture your manual patterns digitally in our system.

The digitizing process replicates the pattern piece exactly as it is, point by point, capturing every notch, drill hole, dart, internal line, and annotation.

With the pattern now digitised it can be printed, digitally adjusted, graded converted to other CAD pattern cutting systems, sent electronically to factories as well kept digitally for safe keeping.

Digitising is a very key aspect when it comes to patterns as having a hard copy pattern and transferring it to a digital format, you have to have 100% accuracy and we at Grade House can guarantee this for you. As we use the most advanced software that promote accuracy and precision.
