01 / About ESSDi

The journey of this project is not that easy cruise.

Open Interoperability

Native handshake with ASTM (.DXF / .RUL), AAMA, HPGL and PDF — files move cleanly between ESSDi and any global CAD, plotter or ERP.

Knitwear manufacturing floor in Tirupur, Tamil Nadu

ESSDi CAD/CAM

PRD_01

The full 9-module apparel CAD/CAM suite — pattern design, AI generation, super marker nesting, import/export, yarn planning, digitisation, auto-cut and 3D visualisation on a single kernel.

In this clip · Hoodie

A hoodie worked end-to-end. Smart Gen generates the hood and body panels straight from the measurement set, then Super Marker auto-nests those pieces across the fabric width — so the exact consumption per garment is known and costed before a single metre is cut.

02 / Services

Eight services that surround the software.

01 / 08

Center of Learning

CAD training and certification for students and industry professionals in pattern making, grading and marker planning.

02 / 08

06 / 08

Marker Planning

Fabric-optimised marker planning across open-width, folded and tubular fabrics, measured efficiency reports per style.

07 / 08

Auto-Cut Integration

Cut-path generation and plotter/auto-cutter integration for every major spreading and cutting machine on the floor.

Testimonials from

Mills, ateliers and colleges across Tamil Nadu.

ESSDi Marker cut our fabric wastage on knit programs by close to eight percent in the first quarter — the payback was almost immediate.

Our pattern-making students walk into industry already fluent in the same CAD their employers run. That is the real value of ESSDi in the classroom.

From tech-pack to auto-cut in a single kernel — the handshake between grading, marker and the cutting floor is what makes ESSDi different.
