Lectra solutions to increase creativity, flexibility and productivity

Index

Lectra is the world leader in integrated technology solutions that automate, streamline and accelerate product design, development and manufacturing processes for industries using soft materials.
Lectra recently hosted a global event for upholstered furniture manufacturers in Bordeaux-Cestas.
More than 120 participants from the industry, representing 16 countries, were present. The event focused on the main challenges facing the furniture industry today, specifically how to offer
more choice in less time and reduce costs by producing faster, efficiently, profitably, customized and
responsibly.
One of the key aims of the event was to give participants the opportunity to experience Lectra’s expert knowledge and solutions in operation firsthand, through interactive workshops, live demonstrations, and round-table discussions.
Several customers, including Polipol (Germany), Muebles Liz (Mexico) and Klaussner Furniture (US) gave presentations on how an optimized process had served to improve their companies’ performance.
The climax of the event was the unveiling of the “Lectra Sofa” designed exclusively for Lectra by Sylvain Joly Design Studio, and built by Daveluy Creations (France) to showcase the efficiency and effectiveness of an integrated, collaborative process, using only Lectra’s DesignConcept, Vector® and Versalis® solutions. “Working in tandem with the designer and Lectra, we were able to iron out problems using the 3D virtual prototype. This resulted in a first physical prototype which was 95% ready for production,” estimated Pascal Daveluy.
