# The marker, the lay and the fabric — calculated for every order.

> Calculate markers, lay length and fabric consumption for every order, grouped by fabric and color, on the real fabric width. Open-width and tubular fabrics.

TramaMax nests your pieces on the real fabric width and tells you exactly how much fabric each order needs.

## Markers by fabric and color

Pieces of different styles and sizes share a marker when they use the same fabric and color. Different fabrics or colors never mix. The nesting respects grain, rotation, mirrored pairs and pieces cut on the fold.

- Automatic nesting on the usable width
- Open-width and tubular fabrics
- Rotation rules from each piece

## Consumption you can trust

The lay length and the consumption per garment come from the pattern of each fabric line, and from the tech pack for the other materials. If an input is missing, TramaMax lists it instead of showing a wrong total.

- Consumption per size and per garment
- Totals per fabric for purchasing
- Pending items listed clearly

## Always up to date

For simulations and quotes, any change to lines, quantities, colors, pattern or fabric width makes the plan out of date — and TramaMax calculates it again. A confirmed order keeps a copy of the results.

- Recalculated after every change
- The same result in the app, the assistant and MCP
- Results copied at confirmation

## Questions

### How do I calculate fabric consumption for a garment?

Draw the pattern pieces (or type the consumption), choose the fabric width in the material and add the garments to an order. TramaMax nests the pieces and returns the lay length and the consumption per garment.

### Does it support tubular knit fabrics?

Yes. Each fabric can be open width or tubular, and the cutting plan places the pieces accordingly.

### Can I see the marker?

Yes. Each lay shows the marker drawing with its length and efficiency.
