Shima Seiki to showcase WholeGarment knitting technology

On display will be Shima Seiki's flagship MACH2XS WholeGarment knitting machine that features the company's original SlideNeedle on four needle beds as well as the company's patented spring loaded full time sinker system. It can knit high quality knitwear with very high efficiency while minimising dependence upon labour intensive sewing and linking.

Also on display is the latest version of Shima Seiki's SDS-ONE APEX3 3D design system. APEX3 provides comprehensive support throughout the apparel supply chain, integrating production into efficient workflow from yarn development, product planning, design, production and sales promotion. Photo-realistic simulation capability allows virtual sampling to minimise costly time and resource consuming sample making while enhancing presentation quality.
