SHIMA SEIKI to exhibit at Pitti Filati 83

On display will be the SVR123SP computerized knitting machine that features a special loop presser bed, capable of producing hybrid inlay fabrics that feature both knit and weave characteristics. Demand for such unique fabrics are very high across a wide range of applications, from fashion apparel to sportswear, innerwear, outerwear, uniforms and other functional clothing, as well as technical textiles. Knitted accessory items will also be presented to demonstrate the flexibility of knitting technology.

The latest version of SHIMA SEIKI’s 3D design system SDS­ONE APEX3 will also be exhibited at Pitti Filati. At the core of the company’s “Total Fashion System” concept, APEX3 provides comprehensive support throughout the production supply chain, integrating production into one smooth and efficient workflow from yarn development, product planning and design to production and even sales promotion.

Especially effective is the way APEX3 improves on the design eval­ uation process with its ultra­realistic simulation capability, whereby virtual samples minimize the need for actual sam­ ple­making. This realizes significant savings in time, cost and material, contributing to sustainable manufacturing.
