The exhibition will be a showcase for the company’s diverse line-up of its latest computerised flat knitting machines. The flagship MACH2XS series features the company’s original SlideNeedle on four needle beds and spring-type sinker system supporting a wide range of quality Wholegarment knitting. The versatile MACH2S is capable of both Wholegarment knitting and conventional shaping. The new compact SWGN2 series Wholegarment knitting machine offers a wide variety of production options as well as the capability for producing industrial textiles. SVR123SP features a special loop presser bed and is capable of producing unique wovenlike hybrid fabrics as well as technical textiles. At Febratex it will demonstrate its capability by knitting shoe uppers. The SVR and SSR workhorse machines set the industry benchmark for shaping machines in the tradition of Shima Seiki’s legendary SES and SSG machines, the company said in a press release.
SFF provides quality semijacquard knitting with tandem capability for added flexibility. The SFGI glove knitting machine rounds out the comprehensive line-up.
Demonstrations will also be performed on Shima Seiki’s SDSONE APEX3 3D design system that is at the core of the company’s ‘Total Knitting System’ concept. With comprehensive support of all aspects throughout the knit supply chain, APEX3 integrates knit production into one smooth and efficient workflow from yarn development, product planning and design to machine programming, production and even sales promotion. Especially effective is APEX’s capability to improve on the planning process with virtual sampling. Photorealistic simulation capability minimises the need for samplemaking, effectively reducing time, material, and cost from the sampling process. (GK)
