Automotive Sector
Talk to an expert: let’s optimize cost/piece and scrap for your line.
Automotive: performance, quality and costs under control
Automotive interiors require speed and repeatability, with a focus on materials. Futura CAD and Caledonia Group stencilers help you standardize processes and reduce cost per part.
Key benefits
Streamlining cycles: From patterning to cutting with digital steps.
Waste reduction On technical materials (microfiber, leather, composites).
Scalability on volumes and batches, with full traceability.
Certifiable quality: audit-proof parameters and reports.
Futura Next CAD software for automotive
- Tolerance management, shrinking, seam/edging perimeters.
- Multilayer nesting, direction constraints, and defects.
- Consumption analysis and “what-if” simulations for quick quotes.
- Output to automatic cutting and ERP/MES integration
Caledonia Group car interior stretchers
- Multi-material drafting with tension control and constant speed.
- Defect detection and in-line reject management.
- Interface with lot/job tracking systems.
Typical use case of the automotive industry
Seat variant launch: pattern update from library, recalculated placings, updated cost/piece report, sent directly to production → reduced lead time and less rework.
