Shima Seiki Mfg., Ltd., a leading flat knitting machine manufacturer from Wakayama, Japan together with its UK subsidiary Shima Seiki Europe Ltd., is set to hold a product & sample show at its offices in Derbyshire, England, on June 21 and 22, 2017. With “See More... Be More” as its slogan, the expo will present a full array of textile machine technology.

The flagship MACH2XS series features Shima Seiki’s original SlideNeedleTM on four needlebeds as well as the patented spring-type sinker system. The SWG-N2 series compact Wholegarment knitting machine offers increased colour capacity as well as the capability for producing industrial textiles.

The new SVR123SP machine features a loop presser bed and is capable of producing unique knit fabrics with woven textures as well as technical textiles. The SSR112 machine features Shima Seiki benchmark technology in a compact, economical package. Also featured are SIP-series flatbed-type on-demand inkjet printing machines using reactive- and acid-dyes as well as pigment ink (featuring new white pigment ink) and P-CAM computerised cutting machine.

Demonstrations will also be performed on the SDS-ONE APEX3 design system that is at the core of the company’s “Total Knitting System” concept. With comprehensive support of the knit supply chain, APEX3 integrates knit production into one smooth and efficient workflow from planning and design to machine programming, production and even sales promotion. Photo-realistic simulation capability allows Virtual Sampling to minimise the need for actual sample-making, effectively reducing time, material and cost in the sampling process. APEX3 also supports design and simulation in various other industries such as circular knitting, weaving, pile weaving, and printing. (GK)
