“Evolution of Jacquard & Weave Design Software: A Comparative Analysis of NedGraphics Texcelle 2016 and 2021”

2. Introduction

• Role of NedGraphics (now part of Lectra/Kubix Link ecosystem).
• Texcelle’s positioning for woven/jacquard design, dobbies, and print.
• Why compare 2016 vs. 2021 (major shift in GUI, cloud readiness, performance).

Introduction: The Digital Loom of Innovation

In the fast-paced world of textile manufacturing, software often plays the unsung hero. Between the years 2016 and 2021, one name dominated the conversation for weave design and CAD/CAM integration: NedGraphics Texcelle. nedgraphics texcelle 2016 2021

While NedGraphics has long been a titan in the textile software industry (known for products like Texcelle, PrimaVision, and EasyWeave), the specific window of 2016 to 2021 represents a distinct technological epoch. This period marked the transition from legacy Windows 7 systems to modern cloud-ready architectures, the rise of high-density woven jacquards, and the increasing demand for photorealistic simulation.

For studios and mills still operating legacy systems, understanding the features, limitations, and legacy of NedGraphics Texcelle 2016 through 2021 is critical for both maintenance and future upgrades. Role of NedGraphics (now part of Lectra/Kubix Link

A. From scanned artwork to screen print

1. Scan at 300 DPI, crop to repeat size.
2. Import into Texcelle → Effects > Make Seamless (small fixes by hand).
3. Colors > Reduce Colors → 8–12 colors.
4. Separations > Generate → export each as film-positive TIFF.

8. Layers & Separations

For professional print production (especially rotary/inkjet):

1. Separations > New Separation Set
2. Choose:
   • Spot colors (each indexed color becomes a separate film)
   • CMYK process (for inkjet)
3. Separations > Generate from Colors – maps each color table entry to a separation.

Export separations: File > Export > Separations as TIFF – each saved as grayscale file.

3. Installation & Licensing

5. Scale and Repeat

• Smart Repeat: Easily create complex repeats (block, brick, half-drop) used in upholstery and apparel.
• Resizing: High-quality resampling algorithms designed specifically for indexed color images (typical in textiles), preventing distortion of the pattern edges.

6.3 Colorways (Recolor)

• Colors > Colorways Palette (or press F7)
• Select a color from the table, pick new target color.
• Click Apply to All or preview using Simulate.

Pro tip: Save colorways as .TCC files to reuse across designs.
