More Information
Summary:Methods and computer program for processing coverings such as leather hides and fabrics are provided. A method for processing coverings can include placing a covering on a work surface and projecting a captured image of the covering by a projector onto the covering. Virtual markings of boundary lines and defects on the covering on the capture image can be registered using the controller. Nesting of templates can be performed on the captured image of the covering with the virtual markings and the nested templates stored as virtual markings with the captured image of the covering. The covering can then be marked, die pressed, or cut along the virtual markings.
