A Marker is made by placing pattern after pattern into the marker
space. This space defines the fabric that will be utilized in the lay. The
space is defined by the following components which are common to all markers.

Installation of CAD system for Marker making
CAD and CAM are two technologies that have made prominent changes in the way
garment manufacturing was done in previous eras. Today all large garment
manufacturing companies have developed CAD/CAM system to do the process of
garment manufacturing. CAD is an abbreviation for computer-aided design and CAM
for computer-aided machine. CAD/CAM is computer software that controls the
production of garments. In CAD the designer designs the garments by using any
suitable software like Adobe Photoshop, Adobe Illustrator, Corel Draw etc and
in CAM the cutters, sewers, graders and markers control the process of
development.

What Is Marker? How to Calculation of Marker Efficiency?
Marker:
A marker is a diagram of a precise arrangement of pattern
pieces for sizes of a specific style that are to be cut from in one spread. Marker
is a thin paper which contains the patterns of all the components needed to
produce a garment ensuring the least fabric wastage.
Marker Efficiency:
Marker efficiency is defined as a ratio of area of marker
used in a garment and area of total marker.

A Short BRIEF HISTORY OF CAD DEVELOPMENT | HISTORY OF CAD.
The 1960s, several brands of computers were introduced onto
the market, and textile engineers started to think about CAD. These machines,
called mainframes, were gigantic devices. Punch cards were prepared and then
processed in the computer using the technology of the time. The result of the
work that was ordered could only be obtained the next day, or sometimes the
following week. These methods, such as transforming the work of the designer
into the punches on the cards and arranging their positions in jacquard weaves
and knits, required long and arduous efforts during routine textile processes.
This process was first put into practice at MIT in the years 1963-4. In the
beginning, the data was loaded onto central computers simultaneously.

Knowledge Shearing about Garments “Marker” & When did start using “Garments Marker Making”?
Garments
manufacturing is very important part of textile production and proper marker
planning and marker making is the heart of garments manufacturing. The results
of cut order planning are cutting orders that direct marker planning and lay
planning. Optimum use of textile material and cutting systems are important
considerations in planning cutting orders as more firms incorporate new
technology. The purpose of marker planning is to determine the most efficient
combination of sizes and shades for each order and to produce the best fabric
yield and equipment utilization. One garments cutting order may require several
markers to achieve optimum efficiency of marker. Usually one of these is a
remnant marker for the short pieces and ends of rolls left over. This helps to
reduce fabric waste. Each marker requires a lay of fabric.
