CAD (Computer Aided Design) and CAM (Computer Aided Manufacturing) are industry specific design & manufacturing systems using computer as a tool. In 1970’s it made an entry in the Textile and Apparel industry.
According to the National Knitwear Association of US, of 228 apparel manufacturers:
60% use CAD to create colorways.
60% use CAD to create printed fabric design.
48% use CAD to create merchandising presentation.
41% use CAD to create knitwear designs.
Computers only speeds up the process of repeat making, color changing & motif manipulation.
