Shima Seiki together with its Italian subsidiary, Shima Seiki Italia, will participate at ISPO Munich 2019, in hall b4, booth BN05. The world’s largest trade fair for sports equipment and fashion will be held from February 3-6, 2019. Shima Seiki, based in Wakayama, Japan, is a leading manufacturer in the computerised flatbed knitting machine industry.

The company will be a corporate partner to the ISPO Brandnew Village, a special platform for promising newcomers to the sports industry.

On display in Brandnew Village will be the state­of­the­art SVR123SP computerised knitting machine that features a special loop presser bed, capable of producing hybrid inlay fabrics with both knit and weave characteristics. Demand for such novel fabrics are very high across a wide range of applications including sportswear, innerwear, outerwear, uniforms, and other functional clothing, as well as home furnishing and technical textiles. SVR123SP at ISPO Munich furthermore will feature the new i­Plating option, capable of alternating yarn colours in any pattern, producing jacquard­like designs using plain jersey stitch. With i­Plating, plating can be performed within the same course and for individual needles for even greater diversity in knit design. The latest sportswear samples produced on SVR123SP will also be on display, as well as revolutionary seam­free Wholegarment knitwear that feature superior fit, comfort, and style that are ideal for sportswear, according to Shima Seiki.

The latest version of Shima Seiki’s 3D design system SDS-ONE APEX3 will also be exhibited. At the core of the company’s “Total Fashion System” concept, APEX3 provides comprehensive support throughout the product 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 evaluation process with its ultra­realistic simulation capability, whereby virtual samples minimise the need for actual sample­making. This realises significant savings in time, cost and material, contributing to sustainable manufacturing. (GK)
