3D simulation in product development: systems, workflows and fit analysis
Seminar time: October 27, 2025
1-day specialist seminar
09:30 h – 16:30 h
8 teaching units
Costs:
485,00 € plus sales tax
Target group:
- Specialists and managers from the clothing and fashion industry
- Employees from product development, pattern development and fashion design
- Responsible digital transformation processes
- Project managers and decision-makers who want to evaluate the use of 3D simulation systems and integrate them into existing processes
Target:
This seminar provides participants with a practice-oriented introduction to 3D-supported product development for the clothing industry. They will become familiar with various 3D simulation systems on the market and understand their use throughout the digital development process – from pattern construction to material simulation and virtual fitting. Key content includes the individual components and stages of realistic clothing simulations, the creation of realistic avatars, rendering and the visual and technical assessment of fit in the digital environment. The aim is to develop a deeper understanding of the evaluation of virtual prototypes and to use their potential in a targeted manner in the development process.
Contents:
- Basics of 3D product development
- Overview of 3D simulation systems on the market
- 3D workflow in practice
- Material acquisition
