In embroidery factories the designs (artist concept) are coded on punch papaer tapes. The punched paper are mounted on needlework machines to produce the final products in multiplicity (lace, in-wrought textile etc). In this paper it is described a method to replace the paper tapes usage, by a data acquisition system controlled by a personal computer. This has multiple benefits in the various production stages that lower the production cost, improves the required production time, the production scheduling the quality, and the monitoring process. Furthermore this computer automation can facilitate the reinforcement of composites structures and tailored fiber placement to minimize stress concentrations.
