Cupid Intimates, America’s leading women’s shapewear and innerwear company, has selected Tukatech cutting solutions to improve product development and production process. Tukatech, based in US, provides pattern making, grading and marker making software, web-based product development services, PDM/PLM systems, and manufacturing equipment for garments.

Ken Langston, senior vice president of operations from Cupid Intimates said, “We have been using specialised cutting and CAD technologies for over 20 years. Our four custom-built cutters, capable of cutting 126 inches wide, were aging and we needed to further improve for even wider fabrics to get the best possible utilisation of materials. We knew Tukatech offers customised solutions for CAD/CAM. With our showrooms in New York, design and engineering in Bethlehem, PA, planning and execution in Oklahoma, and cutting and sewing in Nicaragua and Mexico, we needed to streamline our processes.”

“TUKAcad, TUKAcutplan, and SMARTmark enabled us to streamline our design process in a way that made significant improvement in our lead-time. Improvements were seen in the costing process, storage system, grading, and first pattern accuracy. We have been able to realise 1.5 per cent material yield savings since our installation of Tukatech software,” he added. (GK)
