About Pointcarre Jacquard Weaving

Deep Dive with Clara AI

Pointcarre Jacquard is a professional weaving software for creating and simulating any kind of Jacquard fabric, from the first design to on-loom production. It combines a powerful design environment and a Jacquard weaving engine in one integrated application, so modifying a motif automatically updates the Jacquard. Running natively on both Mac and PC, it lets creative studios and production floors share the same software and files. The design tools cover pen, brushes, gradient, image cleaning, repeat mode, palette editing and color reduction, with full Adobe compatibility for direct import from Photoshop. You can even import your existing archives from another CAD's format with a simple drag and drop, without losing any information. A true Pointcarre exclusive, Jacquard Maker turns any image into a complete, ready-to-weave Jacquard in a single step, assigning weave structures automatically and exporting technical sheets in one click. The weaving engine handles up to 16 warps and 16 wefts with full float control, while Variant Studio and Color Mood let you build colorways in minutes, even generating variations from the atmosphere of any image. Simulation quality sets Pointcarre apart. Through YarnMaker, it builds true 3D yarns that reproduce how each yarn behaves and reflects light, so you validate a fabric on screen instead of on a costly physical sample. As the first textile CAD to embed AI, Pointcarre also offers Design Maker, Repeat Maker and AI Upscaling to remove repetitive tasks. Pantone, Archroma and ColorCSI libraries are included free. Pointcarre issues customizable technical sheets and interfaces with all Jacquard heads, including Stäubli, Bonas, Grosse, Tis and Schleicher. Backed by serious training, the Pointcarre Academy e-learning platform and support by phone, chat, email and remote control, Jacquard is a complete, modern weaving solution trusted worldwide.
