#2) LIVE DEMO
SOURCING at MAGIC
will let you experience the technology that will move your business into the
future and experience a live demo
of “Advanced Manufacturing” machinery and equipment set up on our show floor. There will be 15,000-20,000 dedicated square

Exclusive Cutting & Sewing Machines.
Within our Demo, Micro-Factory Steps Include:
1. Body scanner (Tukatech) - Scan your fit model using the
Styku Body Scanner. Hundreds of measurements can be extracted from a body scan
which can then be used to create a 3D avatar that is an exact replica of your
fit model.
2. Cad System creating the style to a 3D format (Tukatech) - TUKA3D's accurate virtual fit sessions with animation allow the user to bypass physical sample making, dramatically reducing the time and cost associated with product development.
3. Software to manage files that will take the images in the Cad system and convert them to patterns and markers and is sent to the printer. (Tukatech) - Tukatech's 3D apparel design software eliminates the need for trial and error in physical sample creation, ensuring that any design fits right the first time.
4. Direct to Fabric Digital Printer (Mutoh) - this solution eliminates the need to have conventional equipment for manufacturing purposes. This sustainable, clean printing solution is housed in a compact space.
5. Heat press for post treatment of printing (provided by Mutoh)
6. Automatic laser cutter guided by camera technology (Tukatech) - Accelerate sewn-goods manufacturing with eco-friendly and agile automatic fabric cutting machines. Precisely cut an expansive variety of materials up to 8 cm compressed with a vacuum seal, including knits, wovens, and industrial fabrics. Input marker cut data via USB or through the CAD system network for added flexibility.
