## Abstract

The invention relates to a method for producing a textile piece, in particular a garment, comprising the following steps: providing a predetermination unit, which predetermines a shape and/or size and/or a textile material, providing the textile material which is formed with a textile base material, wherein, in a next step by means of a production unit, the textile base material is subdivided into at least two spatially independent textile segments which are separated by at least one cutting mark, wherein the textile segments, after their assembly, produce the textile piece predetermined by the predetermination unit, in particular a garment, wherein in a next step, electrically conductive threads are incorporated into the individual textile segments by appropriate predetermination parameters of the predetermination unit, wherein the electrically conductive threads do not intersect the cutting mark and do not run thereon, not even in at least some places.

## Claims

### Claim 1

A method (100) for producing a finished textile piece (1), comprising the steps of:
a) providing a predetermination unit which predetermines a shape and/or size of a textile material (10),
b) providing the textile material (10) which is formed as a textile base material (11),
c) providing a production unit in which the textile base material (11) is subdivided into at least two spatially independent textile segments (210) which are separated by at least one cutting mark (3), wherein the textile segments (210) incorporate by the predetermination unit, electrically conductive threads (4) wherein the electrically conductive threads (4) do not intersect the cutting mark (3) and do not run thereon, and
d) wherein, after assembly, a plurality of textile segments produce a finished textile piece (1) of the textile material (10) as predetermined by the predetermination unit.

### Claim 2 (depends on 1)

The method acceding to claim 1, wherein a plurality of finished textile pieces (1) form a garment.

### Claim 3 (depends on 1)

The method (100) according to claim 1, wherein various pattern segment subdivisions, selected by a user, may be stored in the predetermination unit.

### Claim 4 (depends on 3)

The method according to claim 3, wherein the textile material (10) is subdivided into the different textile segments (210) according to the pattern segment subdivision.

### Claim 5 (depends on 3)

The method (100) according to claim 3, characterised in that the user predetermines the shape and/or the size and/or the textile material (10) of the finished textile piece (1) to be produced, and these values are compared with corresponding values stored in the predetermination unit, in particular with corresponding pattern segment divisions, wherein after matching of these values the corresponding pattern segment subdivision is selected by the predetermination unit.

### Claim 6 (depends on 5)

The method (100) according to claim 5, characterised in that the predetermination unit transmits the corresponding pattern segment subdivision to the production unit by means of a data communication, wherein the data communication comprises a data transmission, and further wherein the data transmission is based on a language selected from the group of languages consisting of a binary language and a machine language.

### Claim 7 (depends on 1)

The method (100) according to claim 1, characterised in that the provision of the textile material (10) comprises a virtual loading of data of the textile material (10) into the predetermination unit.

### Claim 8 (depends on 1)

The method (100) according to claim 1 characterised in that the subdivision of the textile material (10) and the incorporation of the electrically conductive threads (4) into the textile material (10), is predetermined by a production file created by a unit selected from the units consisting of the predetermination unit and the production unit, and wherein the production file includes all relevant data necessary for the production.

### Claim 9 (depends on 8)

The method (100) according to the claim 8, characterised in that the unit selected from the group of units consisting of the predetermination unit and the production unit transmits the production file to a production machine (5) for the haptic production of the textile piece (1), such that the manufacturing machine (5) produces the textile exactly in accordance with the data contents of the production file.

### Claim 10 (depends on 1)

The method (100) according to claim 1, characterised in that the cutting mark (3) is fixed with at least one cutting point on the textile material (10).

### Claim 11 (depends on 10)

The method (100) according to claim 10, characterised in that the finished textile piece (1) is made without rejects.

### Claim 12

An apparatus (200) for producing a textile material (10), in particular a garment, comprising:
a) at least one predetermination unit, which is configured and intended to predetermine a shape and/or size and/or a textile material (10),
b) at least one production unit, which is configured and provided for dividing the textile base material (11) into at least two spatially independent textile; segments (210) which are separated by at least one cutting mark (3),
c. an assembly unit, wherein the textile segments (210), after their assembly, produce a finished textile piece (1) predetermined by the predetermination unit.

### Claim 13 (depends on 12)

The apparatus of claim 12, wherein the assembly unit further assembles a plurality of finished textile pieces into a garment.

### Claim 14 (depends on 12)

The apparatus of claim 12, wherein the assembly unit further incorporates at least one electrically conductive thread (4) into the individual textile segments (210) by appropriate predetermination parameters of the predetermination unit, wherein the at least one electrically conductive thread (4) does not intersect the cutting mark (3) and does not run thereon.
