Knitting machine maker Shima Seiki exhibits at Egy Stitch

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, through comprehensive support of the apparel production process from planning and production to sales promotion, as well as its capability for Virtual Sampling.

Ultra-realistic simulation capability allows Virtual Sampling to minimize the costly time- and resource-consuming sample-making process.

Products can also be evaluated using 3D simulation, such as 3D modeling, 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.

Also on display will be a computerized flat knitting machine demonstrating its capabilities on-site. Typical of SHIMA SEIKI equipment, made-in-Japan quality, reliability, productivity, user-friendliness and cost-performance combine to satisfy the high expectations of the world’s fashion industry.
