At Texprocess 2026, Style3D | ASSYST delivered a clear industry message: the future of fashion is digital and driven by AI. Over four days of engagement, the company demonstrated how AI, 3D, and automation are already transforming the entire value chain, from concept to production.
As a global leader in fashion technology, Style3D | ASSYST continues to play a key role in accelerating digital transformation across the apparel and textile industry.
Strong Trade Fair Performance and Industry Response
“Our takeaway from Texprocess 2026 is very clear: the show was a strong success for us. We experienced a high level of openness toward innovation. The strong traffic at our booth confirmed that our solutions for AI, 3D, and automation are exactly what the industry is looking for.” Hans Peter Hiemer, Managing Director, Style3D | ASSYST
End-to-End Digital Workflows in Action
At the exhibition, visitors experienced integrated AI workflows that enhance efficiency across design, product development, and marketing, while also enabling new creative possibilities.
A major focus was on fully connected digital workflows, spanning:
- AI-assisted design
- 3D and 2D product development
- Automated costing
- Precision cutting
These solutions support both large-scale manufacturing, demonstrated through denim production, and flexible micro-factory models for prototyping and small-batch production.
Live demonstrations in collaboration with Zünd Systemtechnik and Bullmer showcased seamless integration of digital planning and automated cutting within industrial production, from data preparation to high-precision execution.
Physical AI and Robotics: The Next Frontier
A standout highlight was the robotics showcase, where Style3D introduced a new development initiative through Synreal.ai. This initiative focuses on physical AI and robotics, particularly in training machines to handle complex soft materials such as textiles and simulating real-world production environments.
Innovation Spotlight: Alsico Collaboration
Another key highlight was the collaboration with Alsico, centred on developing protective workwear for robotics.
Garments designed for humanoid robots were created entirely digitally using Style3D Studio within just a few days. The process utilised a robot avatar and eliminated the need for physical sampling, marking a significant advancement in contactless product development.
Industry Insights and Knowledge Sharing
Presentations by Style3D | ASSYST at the Texprocess Forum attracted strong attention, offering real-world case studies that demonstrated how companies are already benefiting from integrated AI and 3D ecosystems.
As Hans Peter Hiemer, Managing Director of Style3D | ASSYST, explains:
“Texprocess 2026 clearly confirmed one thing for us: the next step is consistent AI adoption and the shift from isolated tools to fully connected end-to-end processes. The show remains the ideal platform to demonstrate how the apparel industry can reinvent itself through digital innovation, AI, and robotics. From AI-driven design to automated cutting, visitors at the Style3D | ASSYST booth experienced the future of fashion technology first-hand.”
