The leading computerised flat knitting machine manufacturer Shima Seiki, of Wakayama, Japan, will exhibit at the Preview in Daegu exhibition that will take place from 5-7 March in Daegu, Korea.

On display will be the latest version of its SDS-ONE APEX3 3D design system demonstrating comprehensive support of the entire process of apparel production from planning and production to sales promotion, as well as its capability for Virtual Sampling that is said to offer great savings in the sample making process.

3D design system

An all-in-one 3D design system that supports all aspects of fashion design and production, SDS-ONE APEX3 is at the core of Shima Seiki’s Total Fashion System concept.

Ultra-realistic simulation capability allows Virtual Sampling to minimise the costly time and resource consuming sample making process, the company reports.

Products can also be evaluated using 3D simulation, such as 3D modelling, 3D fitting and 3D mapping. APEX3 also supports design and simulation in a variety of other industries such as circular knitting, weaving, pile weaving and printing.

Shima Seiki

With complete systems integration from planning, production to sales promotion and retail sales, Shima Seiki, of Wakayama, Japan, is a leading manufacturer in the computerised flatbed knitting machine industry.

Shima Seiki is also the pioneer in complete garment manufacturing technology—called Wholegarment —wherein an entire knitted garment is produced on the knitting machine without the need for linking or sewing afterward.

Since its commercial introduction in 1995, Shima Seiki has been the undisputed leader in Wholegarment knitting technology with almost 30 years of on-going research and almost 20 years of proprietary field experience and know-how.
