Abstract
Formation of fractal garments using a laser to scribe a total pattern onto jean parts. The pattern is formed into a 60 by 60 image, that is formed to form all parts of the denim design.
Claims12
A method, comprising:
- using a computer to form a pattern on only a part of a total textile roll, the textile roll having a width that is sufficient to enable forming an entire garment from the roll;
- and
- using a laser to form said pattern on said roll;
- wherein said textile roll has a width of 60 inches or greater;
- and
- cutting parts of the garment from the roll prior to forming said pattern.
3 more elements
A method, comprising:
- defining a pattern which will be formed on a garment;
- using a laser to form said pattern on the material which will form said garment in a single pass of the laser across said material;
- wherein said using comprises defining a pattern which will be formed across an area of at least 60 inches in width, and forming said pattern on a textile area of at least 60 inches in width;
- and
- sewing different separated pieces into a pattern after said forming.
2 more elements
A method, comprising:
- defining a pattern which will be formed on a garment;
- using a laser to form said pattern on material which will form said garment in a single pass of the laser across said material;
- wherein said using comprises defining a pattern which will be formed across an area of at least 60 inches in width, and forming said pattern on a textile area of at least 60 inches in width;
- and
- wherein said pattern is formed on portions of the material which will not normally be seen after sewing.
2 more elements
A method, comprising:
- defining a pattern which will be formed on a garment;
- using a laser to form said pattern on the material which will form said garment in a single pass of the laser across said material;
- wherein said using comprises defining a pattern which will be formed across an area of at least 60 inches in width, and forming said pattern on a textile area of at least 60 inches in width;
- and
- wherein said defining a pattern comprises defining a pattern of a first size, and then expanding said pattern to a second size of said at least 60 inches in width.
2 more elements
A method, comprising:
- defining a pattern which will be formed on a garment;
- using a laser to form said pattern on material which will form said garment in a single pass of the laser across said material;
- wherein said using comprises defining a pattern which will be formed across an area of at least 60 inches in width, and forming said pattern on a textile area of at least 60 inches in width;
- and
- wherein said defining a pattern comprises defining first and second pattern parts, displaying a resultant of said first and second pattern parts, and wherein said using comprises using said laser to form said first pattern parts and then using said laser to form said second pattern parts at separate times.
2 more elements
A method, comprising:
- defining a pattern which will be formed on a garment;
- using a laser to form said pattern on the material which will form said garment in a single pass of the laser across said material;
- wherein said defining a pattern comprises defining boundary powers for said pattern which are reduced at edges of the pattern as compared with power at other positions of the pattern.
A method, comprising:
- defining a pattern which will be formed on a final garment;
- and
- using a laser to form said pattern over an area which is at least 60 inches in width;
- and
- wherein said laser is used to form said pattern over all areas of material which will form a final garment, and further comprising sewing said material to form said final garment in a way such that said pattern is formed on at least one portion of the material which will not be normally seen after said sewing.
2 more elements
A method, comprising:
- defining a pattern which will be formed on a final garment;
- and
- using a laser to form said pattern over an area which is at least 60 inches in width;
- and
- wherein said using comprises using said laser to form a pattern which applies reduced power at boundary edges as compared with other portions in a pattern.
