Dobby CAD/CAM Software for Woven Textile Design | NedGraphics
Chosen by demanding weave stylists and technicians for its powerful yet user-friendly tools, NedGraphics Dobby Design Software gives you everything you need to create, simulate, and produce dobby woven textiles with unmatched precision.
Create advanced weave designs from scratch, or start with a scanned fabric swatch. Once your design is complete, the software does the rest—streamlining your path from concept to loom.
Replace costly and time-consuming physical samples with highly realistic virtual samples that shorten approval cycles and speed up production. Export design files directly to your looms, including yarn selection data, for complete control over the manufacturing process.
Create complex and compound weaves such as double cloth fabrics
Analyze fabric scans to automatically create quick reproductions
View weave and virtual samples side by side in real time
Print via 3D View

Dobby weaving plays a vital role in many textile sectors, and NedGraphics Dobby CAD/CAM software supports them all with creativity, precision, and production-ready accuracy:
Whether you are developing shirt fabric designs, home furnishings, or high-performance woven textiles, NedGraphics provides the right tools to optimize your process.
Access multiple libraries for mixing and matching yarns, weaves, warp and weft arrangements, harness set ups, and peg plans
Load pre-existing templated design information from files to create new fabric designs
Create and match all types of yarns with our exclusive yarn generator
Import scanned yarn images to capture even the most sophisticated yarns textures
Simulates accurate yarn sizes, based on standard cotton count, denier, tex, metric, worsted, woolen, silk and more
Create realistic virtual fabric samples to replace physical samples
Manage unlimited color variations and accurate color blankets
Visualize even the most sophisticated effects, such as variable density reeding, let-back, tissue picks, variable density weft, skip dents and top-beam dobbies
Automatically generate production specifications that can be printed or exported in Adobe® PDF
Export machine files to drive production machinery (supported formats include: Staubli, Dornier, Picanol, Sulzer-Ruti, Vamatex, and Tsudakoma, and now Blue Box Picanol *.des format)
Drawing-in machine interfaces include: Staubli Delta 200, 100 and Vega
Export production data in standard text files for import to database and PLM systems
See for yourself how NedGraphics dobby design software can accelerate your woven textile workflow—from first concept to loom-ready files.
NedGraphics offers a comprehensive suite of design software for dobby fabrics and other woven textiles, tailored to streamline creation and improve efficiency. Together, these applications complement NedGraphics Dobby Software, giving weave designers a complete digital toolkit for apparel, home textiles, and technical woven fabrics.
