Matching method and device for automatic cutting of patterned fabrics.

摘要

Method and device for completing the automatical matching of panels to be cut in patterned fabrics to ensure that the design for each one of the panels to be cut is in its correct position. After defining a series of matching points on each of the patterns and recording as digital data in a memory the matching relationships for each one of these points are defined and stored as matching information in the memory, the matching itself is carried out using a TV-camera (12) installed on the cutting machine (11), capturing images from any point of the fabrics being spread in connection with a digital image processing unit which, by processing the images captured, fix the real position of the design on the fabrics. Matching device, integrated marking and a cutting system are connected in such a way to process the image information with the predicted matching relations to generate an adjustment to the position initially assigned to each panel - in both directions and in orientation - and guarantee a perfect cut of the panels.
