Puller
※ Please check the requirements and recommendations for the Slider modeling below.
[Required]
- The puller(zipper) file format must be *zpl or *zpu.
- When registering the zipper file, it will be all created in size #3. Please create the slider file(OBJ) in size #3. (#3 refers to the zipper size of approximately 3 mm wide zipper teeth when closed.)
- The mesh’s normal direction must be facing outwards.
- Place the puller on the slider to the origin (0,0,0). *Puller Position can be adjusted within CLO software.
- In the Description, the following information of the product must be provided.
(1) Vertex Counts
(2) UV MAP unwrapping status
[Recommended]
- Puller should be created in Y-axis (up) based environment, and the unit of the production environment should be set to mm.
- If mesh and the normal map have the same location and direction, it may cause overlapping and flickering issues during rendering.
- If the over two vertices on the same place, please weld them as one.
- For the complex graphic pattern, please use the Normal map. (e.g., logo and pattern)
- It is recommended to use textures with a maximum size of 1024 pixels.
- The scanned OBJ is compatible, but the mesh should be re-meshed and editable.
- It is recommended to add a wire to express the sharp edge.
- Different kinds of materials cannot be applied to one Puller file, but by using Texture, it allows to express various materials. Therefore, UVs should be unwrapped so that they do not overlap so that customers can use various textures.

▶ Name: Type in the name of the file to be created.
▶ Scale: Select the preset scale when creating OBJ. (The default scale is in mm)
▶ Axis Conversion: Use the preset Axis when creating OBJ.
▶ File: Import the OBJ file to be registered.
▶ Preview Check the imported Puller file in advance.
▶ OK: When the file registration is done, click OK to finish the file creation.
The created file is saved in each object folder as Assets > Materials > Hardware_and_Trims > Zipper
