Abstract :
The biggest problem when using the made-to-measure manufacturing method is the time for production preparation. To produce a made-to-measure garment using mass customization it is necessary to integrate several subsystems: 3D Body Scanner and CAD system; customer co-design options and CAD system; web shop, 3D body scanner and CAD system; garment production and CAD system. Here is introduced a tool for integration of these different subsystems. Use of this tool allows producing many made-to-measure products in time comparable with time needed for production of ready-to-wear products.
