SHIMA SEIKI to Exhibit at Private Show in Treviso, Italy

11/Dec/2015

SHIMA SEIKI ITALIA S.p.A., Italian subsidiary of leading Japanese computerized knitting machine manufacturer SHIMA SEIKI MFG., LTD., is holding a private exhibition at its Villorba office in Treviso.

The exhibition is a showcase for the company's latest selection of computerized flat knitting machines, which gathered great interest from visitors to SHIMA SEIKI's booth at ITMA 2015 held in Milan just last month. Featured are the new flagship MACH2XS WHOLEGARMENT knitting machine with SlideNeedles mounted on four needlebeds and spring-type sinkers, the compact SWG-N2 series WHOLEGARMENT knitting machine with capability for industrial textiles, as well as the SRY183LP with loop pressers that produce unique knitwear with woven textures, now available in ultrafine 16 gauge.

Demonstrations are also performed on SHIMA SEIKI's SDS-ONE 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 APEX3's capability to improve on the planning process with Virtual Sampling. Photo-realistic simulation capability minimizes the need for sample-making, effectively reducing time, material and cost from the sampling process.
