Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of pattern processing, and in particular to an embroidery pattern intelligent optimization processing system and method. Background Art
[0002] As a traditional decorative art form, the quality and effect of embroidery patterns largely depend on pattern design, needle selection, and the precision and parameter settings of the embroidery machine. With the development of modern technology, embroidery craftsmanship has gradually shifted from manual operation to digital control, using computer-aided design and CNC embroidery machines for large-scale production. However, although the hardware capabilities of embroidery machines have been greatly improved, how to improve the quality and production efficiency of embroidery patterns while meeting diverse design requirements remains a challenge. In the current embroidery production process, embroidery parameters and paths are adjusted based on manual experience and simple automation tools, which often leads to problems such as unstable embroidery quality and low production efficiency. For example, different pattern complexities and material properties require different stitch density and speed settings, but existing embroidery equipment is usually difficult to achieve adaptive adjustment according to actual needs. In addition, the optimization of embroidery paths is mostly based on manual settings or basic algorithms, without considering the overall coherence of the pattern and the adaptability of the material. In this case, problems such as frequent needle changes, long embroidery time, and uneven embroidery density often occur during the embroidery process, resulting in the pattern quality being difficult to meet high-standard market demands.
[0003] The shortcomings of the existing embroidery production system mainly come from the following aspects: first, the existing system has limited ability to analyze and identify the characteristics of embroidery patterns, and cannot perform detailed segmentation and optimization based on the characteristics of different patterns; second, the traditional path planning algorithm cannot fully consider the diversity of material properties and pattern complexity in the embroidery process, resulting in discontinuous embroidery paths, long embroidery time, and low efficiency; finally, the lack of effective quality prediction and optimization feedback mechanism makes it difficult to stably control the quality of the embroidery patterns produced. These shortcomings will bring a series of abnormal effects, such as distortion of pattern details caused by uneven stitch density, increased material waste, and excessive embroidery time and cost, which seriously affect the overall operating efficiency of the production line and the market competitiveness of the product. Therefore, it is necessary to develop an embroidery pattern intelligent optimization processing system with intelligent pattern optimization, path optimization, parameter adaptive adjustment and quality prediction functions to comprehensively improve the automation level of embroidery technology and product quality.
